DK Eyewitness "Small hotel in a restored 1898 villa in the fashionable suburb of Ponsonby. Two minutes’ walk to cafés, restaurants and boutiques, five minutes’ taxi ride to downtown."
Rough Guide "This welcoming boutique hotel, in a restored 1898 villa a 3min walk from Ponsonby Rd, is the pick of the crop."
Fodor's "The cozy lounge is stocked with music, films, books, and magazines, and has an honor bar. Five of the rooms have kitchenettes and open off the courtyard." Full review
Lonely Planet "This deceptively spacious Victorian villa has gregarious hosts, impressive sustainability practices, great breakfasts, and it’s located a stone’s throw from Ponsonby Rd in a quiet cul-de-sac." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"This converted colonial villa is steeped in Pacific culture and history, down a quiet residential street, yet just two minutes’ walk from Auckland’s best restaurant district." Full review
Frommer's "A converted Victorian-era beaut that's been filled with colorful Pacific art, this happy B&B has much to recommend it" Full review

DK Eyewitness "A small, charming hotel in a 100-year-old kauri villa in a pleasant suburb of Victorian villas, 10 minutes’ taxi ride from city centre."
Rough Guide "Modest eleven-room B&B in a comfortable suburban villa. It’s popular with German-speakers and there are Teutonic touches to the buffet continental breakfast."
Frommer's "It's a cosmopolitan establishment equally enjoyed by large numbers of Americans and Canadians." Full review
Frommer's "The three upstairs rooms are the sunniest, but all rooms are clean, cozy and have ensuite bathrooms. The big, old villa is close to Mt. Eden Village where there are several restaurants and cafes" Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
