Shaun Couples - 01/04/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I stayed for a couple of nights as I had some meetings nearby. I was warmly greeted, given a very nice room and all luggage was taken up for me as I enjoyed a coffee. The room was spotless, well appointed and the bed very comfortable. During my stay, I ate at Lava for breakfast both mornings, also dinner with my partner one night, and with friends one night. We all really enjoyed our meals, service was good and food terrific. My steak was perfect, as was my salmon the next night. After dinner we all enjoyed a nightcap (or 2) in the hotel bar. The barman (Bob?) was sensational. What a friendly, funny, professional guy he is. Made delicious cocktails and suggested good wine/whiskey. All in all, a brilliant stay. We will be back.

Bonjour Mr C., We very much appreciate your comments regarding your stay at the Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour. It is always a pleasure to receive positive feedback. I will share your comments with our team. I am sure that this feedback will serve as an encouragement to all of our staff as we strive to continuously improve the quality of our services. I will be sure to share your lovely feedback with Bob our barman from Sabrage Bar. I am sure he will be very pleased to hear this! Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope your next visit will be as pleasant as the previous one. With Warm Regards, Dakotah Bishop Guest Relations Manager

Your front line staff were fantastic. Adriana I think it was on the front desk made our wedding night dreams a reality.

Jordan C. Couples - 31/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

My bride and I had to move the date, venue and guest list 3 x in 10 days due to all the new Government restrictions put in place due to the pandemic. The planning, the replanning and eventual dash to the altar was maddening and high on stress and anxiety. Many of our closest friends and family were not able to attend our wedding because of social gathering and travel protocols. Despite the sadness and disapointment caused, we were desperate to be together as husband and wife. Our intimate wedding of just 23 individuals (down from 190 to 100, to 45 ) was amazing. But the Sofitel was the cream on top. We loved it from the moment we pulled up and had the valet take care of our car and bags. A small number of folk were still dinning and they clapped loudly as my stunning bride entered through the double doors. It was well deserved as she looked like a princess. The bar manger took our drinks order and the restaurant staff spoilt us as they allowed us to have a late dinner, in essence our wedding reception, along with my mother & father. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Sofitel. We only wish we could have stayed longer, but the next day NZ went into lockdown ☹. I have and will continue to sing your praises to all I know and encounter. Sincere thanks, Jordan C.

We arrived after our wedding to an amazing suite which we had been upgraded to. Unfortunately the ice bucket we had pre-ordered had all the ice melted. The congratulations cake was a welcome surprise though. Breakfast in the morning at Lava was good too.

Short staffed because of Covid-19

Customer review rating 4.7/5

Neil J. Couples - 30/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We booked 5 nights, but had to head home after 3 nights. Asked for a credit to use when the world is sane again, but was told to contact wotif, who I booked through. Sadly wotif are overwhelmed, and won’t talk to anyone who isn’t travelling in the next 72 hours. Very frustrating. Also it was impossible to get housekeeping or room service on the phone - defaulted eventually to reception or concierge. Was not impressed either at the 100% surcharge on laundry because it was Saturday - totally unjustified in my view.

Bonjour Mr J., We very much appreciate you taking the time to comment on your stay at Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour. I am sorry to hear of the shortcomings during your stay with us. Please know that we take feedback very seriously here at the Sofitel and I will following up your comments with the appropriate heads of departments. Should you have any further feedback or if I can assist you in any way please feel free to contact me directly on h8… Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope to welcome you back to the hotel in the near future.

We stayed here for 3 days before heading south. The hotel is located in a great location as we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. It's closed to many restaurants near the harbor, everyone that we ate at being very good. All of our tours were able to pick us up at the hotel. The staff were all very professional, courteous and willing to help with anything. All in all a great stay.
