This worked for our weekend stay in Hamilton for 2 adults because it was a central location, comfy bed, cosy restaurant and bar and a good breakfast. Helpful & friendly staff.

Parking was extra but valet service worth it as it was similar price of public parking with benefit of added security and valet staff.

11am check out time on Sunday was perfect.

We booked this really close to time and we ended up with breakfast included, which was great this time.
We also asked for extended parking time, which I suspect we paid extra for, even though I had rung especially to ask and thought that it was fine. That said, we didn't have to worry about inner city parking while we shopped.

We came for 2 days for a trip to Hamilton and stayed just the one night - myself and my 2 children; 14 and 10. The room was ideal and the kids absolutely loved the breakfast! The location was central so we walked to dinner and enjoyed watching people heading to work the next day.

We would look at staying here again - it was great having the valet service so we didn’t have to worry about the car. If they had the option of plugging it in we wouldn’t have said no!

We had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The staff were warm, welcoming, and always ready to help. The food we ordered was tasty and well-prepared.

The room was a little on the crowded side, but it wasn’t a major issue since we spent most of our time out exploring. One thing to note is that there are no gym facilities, so if fitness is a priority during your stay, you might want to plan accordingly.

Overall, this is a good option for friendly service and good food, especially with its central location.

The room is as small as a tiny studio. I can’t even walk through when my luggage is open. It’s the smallest room I’ve ever stayed in.

Parking is not permitted except for valet service, which costs $40.

The street-side entrance was blocked, so I had to drive around to find the corner entrance at the end of the street.

This hotel is well located, close to restaurants and shopping.
Staff are always very accommodating.
the only downside is that parking is very limited in the area. The hotel only offers valet parking at $40 per night, so, is very expensive.

Check in - put us in the wrong room not once but twice. Staff werent very helpful and just allocated another room wtihout checking. Was mean to have aa king rom and got 2 x twins and finally got a king which was 2 twins put together with just a sheet on top, so had a very uncomfortable sleep.
toilet was all stained and dirty and very small rooms for the price you pay, we will be trying somewhere else next time.
Parking guys were amazing ! Restaurant staff were rather rude and to sign in just yelled across the room to sing in, very understaffed and looked like not very well trained. Location was fantastic, great central location just a shame staff couldnt be better supported.

Excellent stay at Ibis. Breakfast was great, clean, spacious rooms. Staff were lovely. Only parking was $40 per night, which I thought was expensive. Other than that it was a great stay with excellent location.

Great location good breakfast

The bar and breakfast were good. The parking situation a bit less so with having valet parking only. But even that wasn't that much of a hassle. Great central location very convenient for the restaurants and a short 15-20 minute walk to the Rugby stadium.

The valet parking service was excellent. Thanks Nic! Same to be said about the hotel front desk staff. The lobby, and restarunt are very nice.
Unfortunately the acoustical ratings of the hotel corridors walls and especially the suite entry doors was very poor as every time a corridor entry door was open the doors continually slammed shut making a devastating rattling noise down the hallways. (perhaps the door closures needs to be replaced) Unfortunately the loud corridor noise started at 6:00am and continued all morning. We have been traveling for 3 weeks staying in hotels all across New Zealand and this was the first time this noise issued had happened to us.
The room was very clean however it was the smallest washroom we have ever seen ever in a hotel room anywhere. Lack of vanity counter space makes the bathroom difficult to use especially if it's 2 persons in the room. For the price of this room I would expect a much better and washroom. The breakfast was very well done. The location is also good but for the above reasons we moved to a new hotel for the second night in town.

A celebration stay.

From the time we arrived until we left all staff were excellent. Always friendly and helpful. The best we have from any place in N.Z
or overseas. The dining room ensured the food was correctly prepared to meet specialty requirements for guests we had. Thanks to them. The room was very undersized but comfortable.
