Beautiful elliptical shaped luxury hi rise in Sky City where we could walk in comfort indoors to Weka Workshop and countless restaurants without going outside in the pouring rain. When the rain stopped we walk outside to everything else. My only complaint is the breakfast was buffet only so we went to a nearby hotel for a la carte. Otherwise great hotel!
