My stay at Mount Richmond Hotel was quite mixed. The location was super convenient, being close to Sylvia Park, but the room was a letdown with its old feel and noisy surroundings. The staff were friendly and the dining options were decent, but I struggled with the overall condition of the hotel.
Rooms
5.0
The room was quite small and gave off a worn vibe. The bathroom had some mould, and the noise from the surroundings made it hard to get a good night's sleep.
Service

The staff were friendly and accommodating, which was appreciated, but the lack of warmth during check-in could use some improvement.

Great location near Sylvia Park and other attractions, making it easy to get around, but it's on a busy road which added to the noise.

The restaurant offered decent meals; I particularly enjoyed the breakfast, though I found it odd it wasn't open when I checked out.

My stay at Mount Richmond Hotel was a mixed bag. The service was fantastic, with staff going above and beyond to ensure I felt at home. However, the room left much to be desired, showing signs of wear and tear. The dining options were good, yet the noise from surrounding areas impacted my sleep. Overall, it had its highlights but also significant downsides.
Rooms

The room I stayed in was clean but showed its age, with cracks in the walls and a faint smell that lingered. Unfortunately, the walls were quite thin, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep due to noise from neighboring rooms.
Service

I found the service warm and attentive; the staff were incredibly helpful, particularly when I needed assistance with my luggage. They truly made an effort to ensure my time there was enjoyable.
Location

The hotel's location was convenient for access to Auckland's activities, and it was close to Sylvia Park Shopping Mall. However, the busy road made for some noisy nights.
Dining

Dining at the restaurant was a highlight for me. The meals were reasonably priced and quite satisfying, but I could have done without the noise that disturbed my enjoyment during dinner.
Facilities

The hotel has some nice facilities, including a pool area, but I didn't get a chance to try the gym. Room service was efficient, delivering meals right to my door, which I appreciated.

I stayed at Mount Richmond Hotel for one night and, unfortunately, my experience was far from ideal. The location was handy, and the check-in process was professional. but the room itself felt very worn, with aspects that needed serious attention. I checked out early due to noise issues and the general state of the place, which was disappointing as it has potential.
Rooms
5.0
The room appeared neglected, with worn carpets and an overall run-down feeling. The air conditioning had a strange smell and the bedding was uncomfortable. I felt a dip in the floor and there was visible dust. I left after just an hour.
Service
5.0
The reception staff were friendly and professional, but there was a lack of warmth during my check-in experience. Any staff encounters were marred by issues in the room rather than stellar service.
Location

The location was convenient, allowing easy access to the motorway. However, it felt more like Otahuhu than Mount Wellington, giving me mixed feelings about safety and overall ambiance.

The pool area looked appealing, but I left before exploring the facilities further. It seems the interior maintenance needed attention, possibly reflecting on the rest of the amenities.

My stay at Mount Richmond Hotel had its ups and downs. I was initially shocked by the state of the first room, which was unsatisfactory and required me to change rooms. The new room was cleaner, but the overall experience fell short of what I expected from a four-star hotel. The staff seemed friendly, but improvements in several areas are needed.
Rooms
5.0
The first room I received was poorly cleaned, with hairs in the shower and dirty toilet facilities. The second room, while cleaner, was cramped, with two king singles pushed together. The soundproofing was poor, allowing me to hear everything from other rooms.
Service
5.0
While the reception staff was friendly, I felt there could be more focus on customer service. During check-in, they seemed distracted and not very attentive. Additionally, I didn't receive any offers for assistance with my luggage despite my wife's broken foot.
Location
6.0
The location was decent, being close to essential amenities. However, I wished it was a bit more convenient for dining or shopping options within walking distance.
Dining
5.0
I found the dining options somewhat lacking. The restaurant seemed overpriced for what was offered, and the timing could have been better as well.
Facilities

The facilities had potential, but the pool was less than appealing, and needed better upkeep. Room service was available, but overall, I didn't find the amenities up to par with my expectations.
