U Residence Hotel

After a substantial flight delay, I had to book somewhere overnight to accommodate people I was collecting from an international flight (the road home being closed overnight), so this was a super last minute booking. Everything was just outstanding. Fast communication, nothing was too much trouble, the room was spacious, spotless, super comfy, warm. Person-less check-in ideal due to unsociable hours - directions on how to access / check-in were very clear and the process was very straightforward. Highly recommend!

Great size apartment with a kitchen that suited us well. Easy instructions to get in and communication throughout was brilliant. Bed was super comfy and it was great having a lounge in our room. We stayed in room J. Good size balcony but the weather was not great so we didn’t use it. Water pressure was terrific and shampoos etc supplied. There’s a little coffee area outside in the hallway for guests which was a nice touch. Also extra toilet paper if needed. The office is at the end of the hall and they were super customer focused……even organised transport for us. Super stay and highly recommend.

Our stay was great, we were greeted by friendly staff, given keys then left alone unless we needed help. Room was clean & comfortable with all amenities needed for a few nights stay. Couldn't ask for a better location, 2 minute walk to Te Papa & waterfront. Anywhere between 5 - 10 min walk to Restaurants, Bars, Supermarket, Convenience stores, Cable Car, Cuba St & Courtney Place. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay & will be back. Definitely has our stamp of approval.

The apartment was lovely and clean, and the bed was very comfortable. Nice to have such a spacious bathroom as well, and the addition of a 'shower bomb' was a nice touch. Brilliant to have a patio to sit outside, and the view was unimportant to us. We had everything we needed for one night (or a longer stay), and we were impressed to see there was even a clothes washer/dryer in the kitchen. All in a great location, and in handy walking distance to shopping, attractions, restaurants and bars. Also very quiet overnight. We parked across the road, and that was convenient and absolutely fine. I left a coat in the wardrobe and received a call from the lovely hotel manager shortly after we left. Most appreciated, thanks so much, Team! :)

My conference was at Te Papa National Museum. I couldn't have gotten a closer location if I tried. I arrived just after 4pm and wasn't expecting to be welcomed so warmly. The room was clean and well furnished, it was serviced each day, I had the best night's sleep each night.
