Is there a spa in the hotel?
How was the dinner, typical NZ fare?
Thanks, glad it was of use to you.

I believe there will be a spa together with the health club.

I would describe the dinner menu as good but not amazing. There are the usual choices of beef, lamb, chicken, fish, venison and so forth (I had the venison with a side of veges & it was competently presented & perfectly edible.) Then again, it depends what you like. For instance, I find Peter Gordon's complex creations somewhat intimidating.

I did appreciate the creme brulee, even though my appetite had been spoiled by being plied with M&Ms by my li'l cousin at the movies earlier

To follow up to the above, I have just been informed that the accommodation charge has been credited back to me.
