Great location in CBD, offering exceptional value for both business and leisure travelers.
Hotel DeBrett resides in an iconic building dating back to the 1920s, and is flanked by fashion houses, theatres, galleries, and bars for those in the know.
25 rooms and suites make strong artistic statements. All have 100% New Zealand wool carpets, making good use of the country's sheep-to-human ratio. Baths sport black mosaic tile and heated granite floors. Hotel DeBrett's owners have included oodles of extras, like free Internet, free local calls, and Eithne Curran toiletries. If that doesn't impress, perhaps consider the situation further over your complimentary continental breakfast, and pre-dinner drink.
The Kitchen restaurant is at the heart of DeBrett, offering cutting-edge New Zealand cuisine. Wash it all down with glass of local red in the glass-roofed atrium. When you want to retreat, there's a private space for guests only, complete with an Honesty Bar. Do venture out, though - you're only steps from Viaduct Harbour and the Sky Tower.
