Scenic Hotel Southern Cross
Comfy beds, friendly staff. Purely personal downside was the bath/shower - the knees didn't like having to try and step in and out so much. Older hotel but still clean and comfortable. Parking can be confusing, but the staff were helpful and we got in and out 😊

The room was spotless. Absolutely amazingly comfortable bed to sleep on after competing in the NZ Masters games. A lovely gesture on arrival...a plate with caramel square. Quiet spot. Parking in front. Very friendly hosts. Definitely stay again.
