Boutique City Hotel

Trip Advisor Rating '.$item_trip.' Our Rating 8.8
 

SO/ Auckland, a daring five-star beacon in the pulsing Britomart district, commands the urban designer quarter with audacious flair, weaving cosmopolitan soul and vibrant Auckland energy against a dazzling backdrop of Waitematā Harbour's sparkling waters.

The 130 curated guest rooms and suites, ignited by New Zealand's volcanic elements—Liquid, Vapour, and Solid—blaze with avant-garde design, featuring air-conditioned elegance, flat-screen TVs with satellite channels, Nespresso coffee machines, minibars, and plush bathrooms with baths and premium toiletries. Selected suites flaunt private balconies, separate lounge areas, and mesmerizing harbour or city views, crafting a bold sanctuary for world travellers, couples, or urban explorers. Complimentary Wi-Fi fuels seamless connectivity in this electrifying retreat.

Harbour Society dazzles with reimagined Asian-inspired cuisine, framed by breathtaking Waitematā Harbour and Auckland skyline views, while Javalab Café fuses French patisserie artistry with artisan coffee. Sip cocktails amid live music at the glamorous MIXO lobby bar or HI-SO rooftop bar, perched in high-class splendor. The vibrant wellness centre, guided by relaxation experts, rebalances and re-energizes with bespoke treatments, complemented by a heated indoor pool and state-of-the-art fitness centre. Five dynamic meeting rooms and a 24-hour concierge spark bespoke Auckland adventures, from waterfront dining to cultural quests.

Strutting 200 metres from Britomart Train Station, 400 metres from Sky Tower, 500 metres from the ferry terminal, and 20 km from Auckland Airport, SO/ Auckland offers parking and effortless access to the city's lively waterfront, cultural gems, and entertainment hubs. This audacious haven ignites an exquisite fusion of opulent luxury and the vibrant, untamed pulse of Auckland's dynamic heart.
