The service we received was exceptional, beginning even before our trip started. We had a change to our flights, and I had called to notify the hotel that we would be arriving in the early hours of the morning (rather than the evening prior) and the person I spoke to was so polite and lovely, making a not on our booking so that the hotel staff would know we were arriving later than expected. We had a wonderful stay, beginning from our arrival at 4AM, when we were greeted extremely pleasantly, and assisted quickly and efficiently after experiencing nothing but trouble with delayed flights and difficulties around collecting our rental car. Our stay was for 6 nights and we could not have been happier with the service and accommodation. The room was very pleasant, and larger than I expected. Every staff member we dealt with was polite and cheerful. Our rental car was kept in valet parking for the duration of our stay and brought out for us quickly each time we requested it. We only had one issue during our stay, which was that I had ordered but not received, a glass of wine at dinner one evening. When we reviewed and questioned our bill before signing it to the room, the cost for this was immediately removed and the staff were very apologetic for the oversight. The hotel is well located and within walking distance of some wonderful restaurants and cafes. It's also easy to navigate in and out via car, which made day trips very easy to access. We would definitely recommend the Novotel Hamilton Tainui to anyone looking to stay in Hamilton.

Kia ora Kathryn, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a glowing review of your stay with us. We’re so pleased to hear that you had such a great time and that our hotel exceeded your expectations. I know it can be quite daunting arriving in the middle of the night, especially after a long flight- I am so pleased that you experienced a proper welcome. Your positive comments are greatly appreciated and will be shared with our team, who will be thrilled to hear them. We look forward to the opportunity of welcoming you back for another memorable stay in the near future. Kind regards, Beverley Ball Guest Relations Coordinator Novotel Tainui Hamilton

Easy checkin, friendly staff. Used bar area for some afternoon work was nice and quiet. Room was fine. Lifts were very busy, not sure if 2 are enough :)

Generally good, but: spoke to housekeeper re: room not serviced upon return about 3:30 pm and having been out 6 hours and was abruptly told that we were on the list in a queue of 4 rooms. Tried to order room service on Sunday am and was told kitchen too busy, eventually resolved the issue.

Kia ora Paul, Thank you for choosing to stay with us and for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. We very much appreciate the comments you made, and I can assure you these will be of great assistance as we continually look to improve all areas of our operation. I apologise for the issues with room service and the fact that you were called 20 minutes prior to your agreed check out time - I will copy your feedback and this response with the Operations Manager so that they can share with the team how this impacted on your stay. Please accept our apologies - it's always particularly disappointing for us when members of our loyalty club are dissatisfied. Once again, thank you for the feedback and we hope to be of service again in the near future. Kind regards, Beverley Ball Guest Relations Coordinator Novotel Tainui Hamilton
