Hotel DeBrett

These brightly coloured contemporary rooms range in size from 25–30sq m. Large windows let in lots of light, and we love the retro-style furnishings and the quirky headboard and hand-printed throws on the king-size bed (twin beds available on request). There’s a small seating area, and an ensuite bathroom with stylish tiling, a deep bath tub and stand-alone shower. Rooms have an LCD TV and DVD player, Tivoli radio, underfloor heating, minibar filled with gourmet New Zealand treats and Ecostore bath products.

Overlooking the hotel’s courtyard and atrium, these spacious suites (35 - 40sq m) have a separate living room with ample seating and a dining area, and bedroom with a king-size bed.
