On arrival from the cruise dock, we expected to have to store our luggage till check in. Our room was already available, which was great. The room was spacious and well equipped. The bed was a bit too soft for my husband. This was rectified within hours of him mentioning it. The restaurant was great and staff throughout the property were courteous and helpful. Our only issue was the touch pad controlling lights, aircon and window blinds. Maybe our age was the problem, as we found ourselves...

Took my wife away for a birthday long weekend. On arrival we were greeted by very friendly staff. Check in was quick and efficient. Our room, on the 2nd floor was beautifully appointed, spacious and had all the thing needed to make it home from home, including a nespresso machine and a well stocked mini bar. Our first twist was in the form of a high profile political person, so the hotel had a fair number of "agents" around. Despite this, the staff always made us feel we were the main focus of...

Right from check-in, we were treated so well. The corner suite was beautiful, all the furnishings were comfortable & it had a lovely new feel. Our only disappointment was that the suites overlooking the viaduct were all booked, so ours looked towards Sky Tower over the marina. The shower was absolute heaven, as was the bath. We stay in a lot of hotels around the world & we came to the Park Hyatt with very low expectations. But we absolutely loved it. The breakfasts are phenomenal, & I...
