I had a decent stay overall at The Chancellor On Hobson. The location is ideal, close to the wharf and city center, making it easy to explore Auckland. However, I did encounter a few issues with the room cleanliness and maintenance that were hard to overlook. Staff were generally helpful, but some aspects of my experience left me wanting more.

Rooms

The room I stayed in was a bit worn out, with noticeable marks and some maintenance issues like cracked tiles and loose showers. The photos online made it look way bigger than it actually was, which was a letdown.

Service

7.0

The front desk staff were polite and ready to help, especially when I had to request a room change due to issues in the first one. Everyone I interacted with was pretty friendly, though check-in was a tad slow.

Location

8.0

I really loved the location! It was super handy for walking to restaurants and shops, and not too far from the waterfront. It made getting around Auckland a breeze.

Dining

6.0

I found the dining options a bit overpriced for what you get, and I wish breakfast started earlier on weekends so I could enjoy it before heading out.

Facilities

7.0

The hotel had good facilities, including room service and housekeeping, but I felt some areas could use a bit of TLC to feel more welcoming.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. The reception staff were friendly and quick, which made checking in a breeze, and my room was spacious and clean. However, I found the hotel to be a bit worn down, with some issues like noise from outside and a lack of nearby dining options. Overall, it was comfortable, but I wouldn't want to return unless renovations were made.

The staff were friendly and helpful, especially at reception who made my arrival smooth and even assisted with local recommendations. They were quick to tidy up rooms while I was out.

Location

6.0

The hotel is situated within walking distance to the Viaduct and other attractions, which was convenient. However, the surroundings felt a bit lacking in nearby restaurants and shops.

The dining options were limited and the continental breakfast left much to be desired. I recommend exploring nearby cafes instead for better value.

My stay at The Chancellor On Hobson was a mix of highs and lows. I appreciated the great location and the cleanliness of the facilities, but I encountered some issues with the room's condition and noise levels. Overall, it was a decent stay, but improvements could enhance the experience.

Rooms

Service

I found the staff to be friendly and professional, going the extra mile to assist when I had issues with my booking. Their positive attitude truly enhanced my experience.

Location

9.0

The hotel is conveniently located, just a short walk from the Viaduct and lower Queen Street. This made it very handy for exploring the area, yet being slightly away from the main roads allowed for a calmer atmosphere.

Dining

5.0

The dining options were a bit limited, and I felt the breakfast selection was not worth the cost. There were some insects near the food, which was off-putting.

Facilities

6.0

I enjoyed the pool and gym facilities, although during my visit, the pool was unavailable due to maintenance work. It would have been nice to have access to all amenities.

I had a mixed experience during my stay at The Chancellor On Hobson. The location was fantastic for accessing Auckland's attractions, but the room and facilities left much to be desired. The cleanliness was lacking, and the noise from renovations was disappointing, impacting my overall pleasure.

Rooms

5.0

The room was spacious, which I appreciated, but it felt quite worn out. There were cracked floor tiles, a hole in the toilet door, and the furniture showed signs of aging. I also noticed that the cleanliness wasn't up to par, with marks and stains visible throughout.

Service

5.0

The hotel staff were friendly, but the service could be frustrating at times. I found it odd that I wasn't informed about ongoing renovations that created constant noise. Checking out was also a bit of a hassle with only one person at reception, making the process slower than anticipated.

Location

6.0

The location was one of the hotel’s strong points, being close to many attractions I wanted to visit. However, the noise from the surrounding road traffic was noticeable and detracted from the experience.

Dining

5.0

I didn't have a pleasant experience with the food offered at the hotel. Some items were already gone by the time I arrived for breakfast, and there seemed to be a lack of attention to keeping the dining area tidy.

Facilities

5.0

The facilities were basic and showed signs of wear. I found the bathroom particularly dated, and I encountered issues with the air conditioning not working properly, which made for an uncomfortable stay during warmer days.

My stay at The Chancellor On Hobson was a mix of good and bad. The location was fantastic, within walking distance to the vibrant Viaduct and other Auckland attractions. However, the room needed significant improvements, from cleanliness to comfort. While the kitchenette was convenient, the bathroom and some room features were quite dated and needed attention.

Rooms

6.0

The kitchenette was useful for preparing meals, which was a plus. Unfortunately, the bed was uncomfortable, and I found the bathroom in my first room to be dirty, prompting a room change. The overall condition felt like it needed a refresh.

Service

8.0

The staff were friendly and responsive, quickly accommodating my request to move rooms. I felt that they genuinely cared about my comfort during the stay.

Location

9.0

Being so close to the harbor and central attractions made it easy for me to explore Auckland. I loved the accessibility to local cafes and entertainment options.

Dining

6.0

While the on-site Japanese restaurant had good food, the pricing felt a bit high for what was offered. I would have preferred to find breakfast options outside that provided better value.

Facilities

5.0

Standard hotel amenities like housekeeping and a kitchenette were available, but the cleanliness of my initial room left much to be desired. Some facilities, like the spa pool jets, weren’t functioning, which was disappointing.
