Sofitel – Lighter Quay
High Rise, Hotels
An Auckland CBD five-star hotel located on the waterfront of the Lighter Quays development, counting as one of Auckland’s most enviable destinations for visitors to Auckland. A recipient of the superior design and architecture that exemplifies the wider Lighter Quay development, its form and interior stand many years later as an example in innovation.
The hotel’s location between the Viaduct Harbour and Wynyard Quarter certifies it as one of the most beautifully placed hotels in the country. Centred around a private marina, the Sofitel (formerly The Westin) set the standard for luxury hotels in New Zealand, with premium amenities, design, location and service.
