For a limited time, the stylish downtown hotel is offering the ultimate finishing touch to your next city staycation: a gourmet buffet breakfast served high above the city streets, yours for just one dollar as part of the exclusive ‘Stay & $1 Breakfast’ offer.
Perched on the 15th floor, SO/ Auckland’s light-filled dining room offers panoramic views across the Waitematā Harbour, Rangitoto, and the CBD – making it one of the highest and most picturesque breakfast settings in Tāmaki Makaurau. And the buffet? As expansive as the view. Expect a curated selection of hot dishes including made-to-order omelettes, an impressive pastry table featuring goods baked fresh in-house, cold-pressed juices and espresso coffees – all with no hidden surcharges. There’s even a dedicated gluten-free station.
And while the $1 breakfast is reason enough to stay, the rest of SO/ Auckland is equally seductive. Housed in the striking former Reserve Bank building, the five-star hotel is a bold blend of luxury and personality with sleek interiors by acclaimed Dutch design house Moooi and 130 rooms and suites that combine style with serious comfort. Think cloudlike beds, freestanding tubs, rain showers, in-room Nespresso coffee machines, and floor-to-ceiling windows in nearly every space.
Outside the rooms, SO/ Auckland delivers on every front – from HI-SO, the chic rooftop bar with harbour views, to the luxe SO/ Spa. Guests can also unwind with a 20-metre heated indoor lap pool, Finnish sauna, and a state-of-the-art 24-hour gym.
So, whether you’re local and craving a mini reset, or flying in from further afield, this is a city escape designed to ensure waking up is the highlight of your day.
