Hotel Britomart

The fact that all 99 timber-lined rooms here are exactly 22sqm (237sqft) demonstrates the meticulous detail behind this proudly sustainable building overlooking Waitematā Harbour. Hotel Britomart is the first hotel in New Zealand to be awarded five Green Stars, thanks to an ecofriendly approach that includes hand-made bricks used in the construction. The theme continues inside, with hand-crafted ceramics, minibars stocked with local snacks, and much more.
