Home base in NZ
Review Submitted: November 3, 2009
Date of Stay: October 2009
My husband and I recently stayed in the St. Martin Waldorf apartment as a "home base" for some traveling within New Zealand and were very pleased for the most part. Spacious, clean accommodations with comfortable beds and a sufficient kitchen. View was not so good, but the old graveyard next to the apartments was pretty. The uphill walk from the harbor was a bit daunting at times, but the central location between downtown, the university, the Domain gardens and good neighborhoods (Newmarket & Parnell) was perfect and helped us feel more like locals than tourists. Main bus lines pass near apartments for conveniently exploring the city/getting to the airport/etc. Front desk staff was pleasant, but not very helpful in terms of recommendations for local dining. Front loading 2in1 laundry a little scary, especially with no instructions provided and loud "lift off" noises that emit during all cycles. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again, especially for the price!
