Southern Region accommodation from NZ$51

The standard room I booked was great. It was spacious, clean and quiet. I arrived during Storm Harry, so it was a lovely retreat when I couldn't leave the hotel. The birthday package came with fizz and was bright and colourful (I would change the dessert as it wasn't very nice). I liked the spa facilities despite missing out on the outdoor pools due to the weather (January for you, so this was expected!) and only wish the 'adults only' policy for the indoor pool was upheld. 3 days in, the room next to me flooded and the water seeped into my room, soaking my laptop charger and also rapidly flooding. At first, the response to this at reception wasn't the best, with no apology and lacking action and direction. Thankfully, when I came back down with my things haphazardly packed, Santiago kindly dealt with the room change. I received an upgrade to a large room, my dinner bill at the restaurant was paid for while I waited and he also made sure this new room was redecorated with the birthday details. So thank you 1926 team for rescuing things and making me feel happy to have booked!

Very nice hotel and staff are very friendly from the reception Cassidy to the concierge Edgar and Brian and the staff from the restaurant Mylen Johanna. And the staff from spa. Will highly recommend this hotel.

Excellent staff who were very helpful. Lovely room and facilities. The hotel is really good value and with good location. Good transport link to get anywhere. Let down on the day before leaving only by the cleaning of the room which was not done despite calling reception to say that we'd accidently broken a glass and the floor needed cleaning for safety reasons. We cleaned as best as we could but very wary of stepping on tiny glass shards.
