The Hotel Britomart
Smart, soulful and contemporary, The Hotel Britomart welcomes guests to the best of downtown waterfront Auckland.
Designed by Cheshire Architects to reflect the character of the surrounding heritage buildings, this award-winning hotel was built with purpose. From the striking exterior of hand-made brick to the hotel’s innovative collaborations, sustainability has been at the heart of every decision.
All 99 guest rooms and five elegant Landing Suites feature beautiful timber-lined walls, serene stone-tiled bathrooms, built-in sofas, artisan ceramics and other considered touches. Downstairs, an intimate laneway connects the hotel with neighbouring historic warehouses that are now home to world-class eateries and bars, including the hotel’s sustainable seafood and game restaurant, kingi.
The Hotel Britomart has a succession of unique and sophisticated event venues to suit any occasion, including The Libraries, kingi Private and The Kronfeld Room. The spaces cater to everything from daily meetings and intimate gatherings to large, seated dinners, with a signature level of care and sustainability woven into every aspect, making for a truly unforgettable experience.

Just a few steps from the hotel lobby, plant-lined, pedestrian-friendly streets offer excellent shopping from local and international brands. And at the centre of Britomart, Takutai Square has a verdant lawn, scattered with beanbags to lounge on in the sun.
The nearby Britomart Transport Centre offers easy public transport connections to every part of the city and airport. Plus, it’s an easy stroll to Auckland’s beautiful waterfront, concerts at Spark Arena, galleries and the ferry terminal, offering day trips to the vineyards, walks and beaches of the Hauraki Gulf islands.

Sustainability:
Sustainability – economic, social and environmental – is one of five central brand values for The Hotel Britomart. To ensure high performance benchmarks and accountability for its sustainability commitments, The Hotel Britomart is accredited by and in the process of aligning with recognised organisations that advise on and evaluate sustainability performance. These include the New Zealand Green Building Council, which administers the Green Star certification within New Zealand, Toitū Envirocare, who currently work with Cooper and Company to assess carbon emissions for the Britomart precinct and The Landing, and Qualmark, New Zealand tourism’s official quality assurance organisation.
Additionally, the hotel has committed to the Tiaki Promise, a commitment among New Zealand tourism industry organisations to care for New Zealand and encourage visitors to do the same, as well as Tourism Industry Aotearoa’s Tourism Sustainability Commitment, which involves undertaking 12 sustainability commitments in economic, visitor, community and environmental categories.
The Hotel Britomart offers New Zealand's first hotel-led regenerative travel experience - Nourishing Nature - a tour that takes guests into New Zealand’s beautiful native bush for an immersive sensory adventure that gives back to the planet and local community. Catering to the growing number of travellers considering the environmental and social impacts of their trip, the half-day (four hour) visit to a ‘native forest farm’ teaches guests to harvest native herbs and plant ingredients to be later used in a delicious taster, educates them on local traditions and enables them to learn how reforesting native bush helps New Zealand’s rich biodiversity flourish.
