Kim G. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

We enjoyed our stay however it was very dissapointing to arrive to go to the rooftop bar and be told it is shut for a wedding. We booked the room with the plan to have some drinks at the rooftop bar and snacks plus we had friends meeting us there. This was definitely the selling point for us to stay at the hotel and the staff were not too emphathetic about it. Very dissapointed this this.

Kia Ora Kim, Thank you for your review and for choosing to stay with us. We’re pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay overall, however we’re very sorry for the disappointment you experienced regarding the rooftop bar. We understand how important this was to your plans, especially as it was a key reason for choosing our hotel and arranging to meet friends there. From time to time, the rooftop venue may be reserved for private events such as weddings, which can limit public access. We’re sorry this impacted your plans, and we also regret that the response you received did not reflect the level of understanding and empathy we strive to provide. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and will be shared with our team to ensure we continue improving how we manage and communicate in these situations. We do hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide a more seamless experience next time. Kind Regards, SO/ Auckland Team

Poppy H. Friends - Confirmed reviews ALL

So/ has a great location near Britomart and Queens Street with amazing shops and eats nearby. The hotel itself had a luxurious atmosphere with huge rooms, outstanding housekeeping, and lovely views of the city and harbour. I loved how all complementaries were restocked and the room was spotless every time housekeeping came in. All staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, I didn’t even need to ask any questions as they were all answered upon arrival by Mika! I would 100% stay at this hotel again and recommended it to friends and family. One note is that I was overcharged over $500 and it’s unclear whether or not my $100 security deposit has been refunded yet. A few days later my $500 was back into my account, not sure if that is including my deposit or not. Either way the situation is seemingly overcome and I wouldn’t let that stop me from staying at So/ Hotel in the future.

Kia Ora Poppy, Thank you for your detailed and thoughtful review. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the location, the atmosphere of the hotel, and the views, and that you found the rooms spacious and well maintained. It’s also great to know our housekeeping team and Mika helped make your arrival smooth and welcoming—we’ll be sure to pass that on. We’re sorry for the confusion and concern around the overcharge and security deposit. Even though it appears to have been resolved, we understand how unclear or delayed banking transactions can be stressful. We appreciate your patience and are glad it didn’t affect your overall impression of your stay. We really value your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back to SO/ again in the future. Kind Regards, SO/ Auckland Team

A special thank you for recognising Sudesh Naidu. It’s fantastic to hear he remembered you from a previous stay and went the extra mile to make your visit more comfortable by sourcing larger tea mugs. His genuine care, and personal approach are exactly what we strive for, and we’ll make sure your kind words are shared with him and the wider team. We truly appreciate your loyalty and look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Kind Regards, SO/ Auckland Team

Aden M. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

The room set up is very modern, but impractical. Bed was comfy. I could hear through the walls and the street below. Booking said parking was free but cost me $130 which I only found out when checking out.

Kia Ora Aden, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the location and found the bed comfortable, but sorry to hear the room layout wasn’t practical and that noise from both the street and neighbouring rooms affected your stay. We also apologise for the confusion around parking charges. We understand how frustrating it is to only find this out at checkout, and we’ll be reviewing how this information is communicated to ensure it’s clearer for future guests. We appreciate your comments and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a more seamless experience in the future. Kind Regards, SO/ Auckland Team
