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
