« Such a wonderful stay. All staff were so friendly at all times. Nothing was a problem for any staff member. You could have forgiven them for being all focussed on the All Backs staying there but this was not the case at all.
We had the best room service ever experienced in any hotel. Speedy service with hot wonderfully tasting food. »
« Always an easy and comfortable stay at the Quest Ponsonby. Comfortable rooms with lots of eating options etc within walking distance. Recommend + »

Washroom very clean, I have seen staff cleaning every other hour

« We had extensive views across Orewa, as well as sea views.
The secure parking was a really good feature as the property is right in the heart of Orewa; this also meant easy access to supermarkets and restaurants. »
"The hotel was fantastic and the staff were wonderful. However, the blinking LED lights on the smoke detector right above the bed were quite disturbing at night and made it hard to sleep. Also, the bathtub faucet didnât close completely, and the toilet tank started refilling by itself every five minutes, which was a bit annoying."
"I only stayed in this hotel on the account that my wife has an Airedale terrier. My wife's dog is not my dog, but I judged the affinity sufficient.
The hotel is great though. It has a refreshingly modern design, and everything inside works: it's the first time I've seen a towel hanger actually warm in 2025.
The only downside is that they don't accept dogs - and that despite having an Airedale in their name! This didn't affect me personally, since I don't have a dog (my wife has), but it is certainly an incongruity that woofs to be resolved.

"En sortant de 34 heures de voyage, cest le genre d'hotel qu'il faut. Dans un quartier calme, mais a 5 minutes a pied du dynamisme de la marina, des lits immenses, et une grande douche, tres propre."
