We told you it was on its way, and now luxury lifestyle hotel SO/ Auckland has rolled out the red carpet, welcoming guests and nosy neighbours to eat, drink, stay and play in the heart of the city.

Renowned Kiwi fashion innovator WORLD has provided flair throughout the hotel as the signature design partner for this very individual, designer hotel.

This can be seen in the hotel’s bold emblem design, which reflects the volcanic history of Auckland, the natural beauty of New Zealand and the history of the building itself.

SO/ Auckland occupies the former Reserve Bank and is the seventh addition to the SO collection and the first in the Pacific region,

Playing on the volcanic theme, guests can choose their room design style from Vapour, Liquid and Solid while an entire floor is dedicated to Penthouse Suites.

And what’s a designer hotel without the most indulgent of spas? SO/ Spa is bringing the big guns (and potions) to answer all beauty, wellness and relaxation prayers.

Each of the hotel’s 130-rooms includes its own luxurious bath, an abundance of natural light, a separate rain-shower, on-demand, in room technology, complimentary non-alcoholic mini bar and Wi-Fi, a flat screen TV and a choice of harbour or city views.
