Design Hotels has added another hotel to its Oceania portfolio Hotel DeBrett in New Zealand.

Situated in a traditional Art Deco building in Aucklands hip fashion district, the 25-room hotel is designed and run by Michelle Deery and John Courtney.

Every room has a unique design and features eclectic furniture and New Zealand art and photography.

As a reinvention of one of Aucklands oldest hotels, Hotel DeBrett retains some of its homey and familiar features, such as an open gas-burning fire, oak floorboards and exposed brick walls.

The hotels bar has been carefully restored to its former glory, and is fast-becoming the place to see and be seen in the city. Guests can choose from the cocktail menu, or sample a local boutique beer or glass of wine from a carefully selected list of New Zealand wines. In keeping with the friendly ambience, guests are invited to enjoy a nightly complimentary drink hosted by the hotels owners or manager in the private drawing room.

The Kitchen restaurant, headed by award-winning chef Mark Sycamore, serves seasonal dishes which can be enjoyed in the glass-roofed atrium, or in private dining suites.

A cozy drawing room for hotel guests offers a retreat from the lively atrium and is equipped with board games, a record player and a wide selection of books and DVD's.

There is also free gym access, and a variety of meeting spaces, including a courtyard, basement, loft suite and boardroom.

Hotel DeBrett is just a short walk from the restaurants and bars of Viaduct Harbour, the Sky Tower, Vector Arena, and the Ferry Building. The hotel is surrounded by cultural offerings including art galleries, theaters and museums.

Rates at Hotel DeBrett are from NZ$ 300600, including complimentary continental breakfast, free Internet access, free local calls and a complimentary pre-dinner drink every night.
