07 Frame those harbour views

There’s a spot where you can take in everything that’s splendid about Auckland – the harbour, the islands, the yachts, the sky – at once: the private balcony of your elegant rooftop room at the recently opened Park Hyatt Auckland (hotel.qantas.com.au/parkhyattauckland). But there are lots of wonderful moments to be had inside the hotel, too: massage weary muscles under the high-pressure shower in the spa’s hydrotherapy area or settle down with a book in the sprawling lounge-restaurant, The Living Room, dominated by large-scale artworks on one side and water views on the other.
