great location, awesome quality hotel.
5 star decor.
We stayed for 1 night as a break.
This would be one of the most luxurious and relaxing hotels in Auckland city.
My only complaint was the bed was too soft. It was hard to turn over at night. My back was killing me the next morning.
It would be nice if they gave you a choice of soft or hard bed. Hard bed for me every time.
The bed unfortunately puts me off going there again.
If it wasnt for that it would be a glowing review.

Really liked the Sofitel, the location is lovely - a short walk to the busy restaurant precinct at the Viaduct and beyond that to the city, yet far enough away to be really quiet and relaxing for a city property. All staff were always friendly yet very polite and professional. The room was incredibly spacious, the decor plush yet understated and the bathroom was great; a big deep bath and a wonderful rain shower. And to top it all off I still believe the Sofitel beds are some of the best in hotels! The only downside would be rooms looking onto the internal courtyard / reflection pond lack a bit of privacy but the timber shutters and curtains take care of that.
