Fodor's Review:

Auckland's old Magistrate's Courthouse was transformed into an elegant lobby with a stunning onyx ceiling, restaurant, and bar for this all-suite hotel. The guest rooms are all in a Manhattan-inspired tower built just behind the court. Though most rooms have decent views, the best sea views are available higher up on the east side of the hotel, at a slightly higher price. On a clear day you'll be able to see right across the harbor to the Coromandel Peninsula. The stylish mushroom-toned apartments are either one- or two-bedroom with sliding doors separating the living area; most have balconies, and all come with a kitchenette, including dishwasher, and washing machine and dryer.
