Not enough diversity in the staff, thus, making it seem indian supremacist . Its dissapointing too cause I feel like this plays a huge factor in the poorly maintenance of the rooms and buiding as a whole. Its okay for a nights rest and a drink in comfort. Didn't experience the restaurant as a I donr feel like curry this and that and this and that.
For a hotel named after an amazing icon, it was very minimal in providing that effect .
8 indians , 1 White man. The White man wasn't the manager, thats how I know, the manager is very racist in his hiring as this is a usual case when they're given a platform they don't deserve . Would not stay again

The Shakespeare is very much a funky "character hotel", and it's 100+ year history shows in good and less so ways. Anyone who has stayed in Paris knows what a 4 storey walk up is like - all those stairs can be a challenge, especially with luggage. But the "vibe" is very cool, and it's all the old architectural details that make it such a unique experience. The excellent in-house kitchen and brewery made for very good dinners and tasty beers, and thestaff were nice, especially manager(?), Siddartha, was friendly and efficient, helping us with parking arrangements and guest discounts on meals.
Our 2 rooms on the top floor were acceptable, but not great. Carpets and showers were in need of a deep clean (and one shower had drain issues), and there was nowhere to hang jackets or clothes (although 2 hangers provided on door knob), and only one had a chair to sit on. But sheets were clean, beds comfy, and the small fridges did their job. But the price was reasonable, especially for the CBD location - within walking distance of shops, Weta, the art museum, harbour etc. We would stay again.

Our group stayed in Auckland for an event. Overall, we all enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect, 2 minute walk to Sky City and queen street.
Check in was easy, all explained post booking. Friendly staff, and an in-house discount for guests was a nice touch. Had a great old style pub feel.
Our rooms were clean, and had all the basics we needed. The building itself is pretty tired, and it does have old sash windows, so you may need ear plugs!
Thanks for a great weekend!
