Receptionist helpful..but nobody there until 8am which was tricky as I didnt want to just leave my room keys at an unattended reception. Perhaps a safe system should be introduced

Upon arrival, our room had not been cleaned, so we were offered an free upgrade which we were very grateful for. Our original room was a queen, and I would not recommend that for backpackers, you would be better off staying at a hostel, it was very small and didnt have much of a kitchen and had no view. Our upgraded room was very spacious, however the couch was covered in stains, the coffee table was broken, there was a bowl of flour in one of the kitchen draws, the shower drain was clogged/blocked with thick black hair and there was black hair in the toilet as well. The lady at reception was helpful in assisting with the upgrade, however, at the end of our stay, I found it hard to find any information about the checkout process. The location was great, however, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone.

The room was run down with peeling paint, broken blind, blown light bulbs. The bed cover was faded and pilled and the towels very worn and grey. There is no phone in the room. I asked reception to order a taxi for the morning and they didn't book it. This meant I was in danger of missing my flight.

Comfortable bed, clean room, not noisy. Could do with better signage, especially in the lifts, regarding which floors reception and access to Lambton Quay and The Terrace are on. Took a while to work out, initially. Water pressure in shower a little low, but that's just a personal preference, may not worry others.

Disliked: Room comfort
Front desk is courteous. Room is decent eventhough it was pricey. Room should have a sofa ( bed for extra guest) instead they have given two single sofa. I have book for a 6 nights stay however i need to cut it short for 4 nights due to an emergency. They promised to check with the manager for a refund but ended up waiting for their call that it wasnt gonna happen. I did ring the front desk and just told me it not refundable and kinda mad that i did follow up the refund. Not recommended to stay in this property in the future.

Check-in was at 3pm but the room was not ready, staff couldn't tell us when it would be available. When I did get into my room there were still dirty dishes in the sink. Stains on the top cover of the bed. When I notified the reception they did nothing to rectify the situation. The dirty dishes werestill there when I checked out. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Disappointing
While the hotel is extremely central, the Lambton Quay access into the hotel wasn't working. The person on the desk had to come down several flights to let us in as we explained we couldn't easily walk up to the Terrace entrance after hours with our bags. The room was clean but very cramped and the aircon very noisy throughout the night.

Response from Park Hotel on 14 Feb 2024
Kia ora, Thank you for your review. The Lambton Quay access needs a hotel key card after you have checked in and if you have not checked in, our normal process is to come and get you which we are more than happy to do. Kind regards, Park Hotel
