We enjoyed a weekend sojourn to celebrate our 26th wedding anniversary recently and despite the lockdown restrictions were treated as VIP's and enjoyed a wonderful service in our rooms from the Team @ Sofitel Viaduct Harbour. Our suite was beautifully appointed, modern and stylish and we enjoyed stunning inner harbour views.

Adrian T. P. Business - 04/11/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

I had an unscheduled two night stay at your Auckland Viaduct Hotel. Your staff were very helpful particularly courteous and offered service to an exceptionally high standard. I am happy to recommend this Hotel to friends and colleagues. My wife and I live only three km for the Viaduct Basin and often book into a hotel or apartment to work from as a quiet place and a work treat. We might add this hotel to our list. Nga mihi

Such a shame stay was during lockdown

Ian Business - 01/11/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

One of the nicest Sofitels I’ve stayed in, the design of the lobby and main area is very nice - just such a shame we could use none of the facilities as Auckland was in level 3 lockdown at the time. Would love to come back sometime when there are no restrictions

Bonjour Mr H., Thank you for taking the time to comment on your stay at Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour. It brings me great joy to hear you appreciate our chic and beautiful design and we also hope you get to return so you can experience our excellent spa and pool facilities.

Unusual Times

Tonia N. Business - 31/10/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Eerie to walk through a quiet CBD - then when I arrived the hotel looked closed - there was a message at the door that said it was shut except to registered guests, and the numbers I tried ringing when I'd made the reservation didn't work. So I got a bit worried - spent 5 minutes of so trying to figure out what to do and then someone appeared and let me in - they were seated around the corner and hadn't seen me. Not sure if this could be modified a bit - a number on the board for people to contact perhaps , as I was on the verge of leaving! I ordered room service and went to my room - but then was phoned to say the chef had gone home - the lady who told me was extremely apologetic and went out of her way to help me - brought me a wine and chips and offered to sort uber eats for me --- she also sorted breakfast for me. So there were bits of my stay that could have gone a bit better (the arrival and dinner) - but I accept the challenges of the time and was grateful to find somewhere to stay and was in the end looked after very well with the staff member being extremely helpful (sorry I can't remember the lady's name, but she was excellent!! )

Bonjour Tonia N., We very much appreciate you taking the time to comment on your stay at Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour on the 28th of October. Firstly , please accept my sincerest apologies for issues surrounding the check in process and ordering of room service. I would like to thank you for your understanding and patience during these times, as this is not the standard of service we strive to provide at the Sofitel Auckland. I will pass on your positive feedback to Angel who assisted you during your stay. I truly hope that we can be your hotel of choice for your next stay in Auckland and I would like to reassure you that we value your custom. With Warm Regards, Dakotah Bishop Front Office Manager

Anonymous Couples - 24/08/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

club lounge was disappointing. Person talking to other customers. Coffee thrown together no food as eaten and not replenished therefore nothing available to eat. Choice was VERY limited anyway. We were really looking forward to this stay and added club lounge to make it special. Probably wouldn't do this again. Free drink was a lovely idea and breakfast great.

Bonjour Mrs C., Thank you for taking the time to comment on your stay at Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour. I am sorry to hear of your disappointment with the club. I have passed on your feedback to our Club Manager Brett and Executive Chef to improve the food offerings for future. We really appreciate your feedback.

Nice experience, lovely and very helpful staff.

Janne A. Business - 23/08/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

We enjoyed our stay and it was great being able to leave our car there while we wandered around the city after we had checked out. My only one small criticism was that the room was not spotlessly clean, particularly the kitchen cupboards which needed a good wipe down. Beautiful bathroom which was lovely and clean though.

Bonjour Mrs A., Thank you for taking the time to comment on your stay at Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour. It is always a pleasure to receive positive feedback about the excellent service from our friendly and helpful ambassadors whom we are very proud of!

Great location, lacking a bit in service

Michele M. Business - 22/08/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Beautiful hotel, staff were very nice. but my room was cold and was shocked that there were no blankets in the room at all, so I struggled to sleep the first night. Second night, I got a blanket and the staff said they would send someone up to change the aircon and they didnt. Not too big a deal as I had the blanket so I was warm the second night. Breakfast in the morning looked great, but there was no salt or pepper delivered with the poached eggs. Bit disappointing.

Bonjour Mrs M., We very much appreciate you taking the time to comment on your stay at Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour. I am very sorry to hear of the several shortcomings during your stay with us. This is certainly not the service that we pride ourselves with and I have shared your feedback with our Senior Management team to ensure we improve on these services moving forward. Please contact me directly on Da… the next time you book with us so I can extend some extra courtesies and personally ensure you have a fantastic stay with us. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and I hope to have the opportunity of welcoming you back again in the future. With Warm Regards, Dakotah Bishop Front Office Manager

Great Stay

Robert W. S. Couples - 21/08/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

We found your staff very pleasant and courteous. My only adverse comment would be some of the lighting in the Hotel especially our room which I thought was dull. Some more powerful globes would have been helpful. The dining room was very good and the Bathroom OK but our main room area/bed area we thought was a little dull.

Bonjour Mr S., Thank you for taking the time to comment on your stay at Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour. I am delighted to hear you appreciated the warm and friendly service from our dedicated ambassadors, especially Michelle our receptionist who greeted you for arrival and departure. Furthermore, thank you for your feedback regarding the lighting, I will pass on your comments to our Chief Engineer to see what lighting option changes we can make. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and I look forward to welcoming you back again after the lockdowns so we can provide you with a full breakfast experience.

All good - one hiccup but was resolved satisfactorily. Room was well presented meals were excellent. Would of been nice to have housebar open but guess it was Sunday. This is one of Accors better hotels for getting club benefits.
