The Horizon was lovely. It was quiet and the service was excellent. The parking was a little tricky having to park across at Skycity, navigate a couple of lifts and walk through the Sky bridge to get back to the Horizon, but that become easy enough after a couple of days. The pillows were very big and uncomfortable and the polyester duvet inner felt quite cheap. But the beds were very comfortable! Overall would recommend.

We were booked into a city view room (which looked straight into the building next door!). The lights in the bathroom came on and went off all during the night (clearly a fault which we reported), but very annoying for our 1 night stay. Hopefully, this won't happen to anyone else

What a stunning experience, from staff service to the room. From check in process to check out not once did we encounter an unhelpful or unhappy staff member. Very pleased and will most definitely be my #1 place to stay in AKL CBD.
