I had the best pumpkin soup in a long long time at Aria...the bread rolls given with the soup were divine. I ordered 6 more rolls...dipped in soup it was a taste from heaven. Met Nick, the Executive Chef and conveyed my appreciation for this amazing pumpkin soup.

Nice food and friendly staffs, cheap smiles and greetings yet still giving you space for your privacy and peace whilst you enjoying food.
I have been roaming around for food since 11 in the afternoon and enjoying a small dish yet enjoyable, if you in the same happened with me, you probably want to choose fish pàte. Cripsbread with the smokefish and sour cream are just legend! Salad is kinda look normal until you got the bite of sweetened grape mix with them.
It’s definetely heaven and plus you can still make space for dessert after that delightful meal. I chose chocolate platter, macaron and raisin cake was kinda slow but wait until you get a spoon of the rest 2 bites (which i forgot what was their name, they placed at the very end left and right of the dish)
Ohh ofcourse rose lover like me definitely satisfied with house wine The Ned that was recommended by the waiter, not too dry yet still flavorful of berries and cinnamon.
I am fully recommend this restaurant for your culinary stopover.

This is the Crowne Plaza’s restaurant. Dinner- The food and service are okay. The only complaint I would have is the Hapuka fish [$34] was much too salty. There is salt on the table, people can always add it, but you can’t take it out so restaurants should be careful not to overdo it. The roast vegetables [$9] were very good- I recommend them. The carrot and cauliflower soup of the day [$18] served with sourdough bread and the farro salad [$19.50] were fine. There are plenty of wine choices with a glass $12 and up. If you are an IHG member they take 10% off the bill.
The breakfast buffet there is excellent with many choices. There is an omelet station, cappuccinos and other coffees, a wide selection of teas including many loose ones and tea pots, lots of fruit choices, cereals, various nuts, lots of pastries, muffins and good banana bread, good breads including tasty whole grain ones, low fat and soy milk, a juicer/smoothie machine with vegetables, ginger, etc. to use in it. One morning there was salad, smoked salmon and curried vegetables but not the other day.
10/10 breakfast. like eating food from an old barbie movie. very nice staff and calm atmosphere. only thing to be improved is please have something to stir the jugs of dairy free milks because the stuff sinks to the bottom and you end up with watery milk.
Had the buffet breakfast after our stay in town to see the Cabaret, There was so much choice on the buffet and I asked for an Original Omelette , which was a cheese and tomato which I received in no time . The hash browns were a bit tough, it seemed like the old batch hadn't been cleared before the new batch but that was the only downside . Awesome start to the day. Had two meals at the restaurant (were staying at the hotel). Can highly recommend the venison. Sensational. The wait staff are amazing in this hotel. Nothing to too much trouble for them.
Excellent customer service from the staff.Highly recommend.Thank You
Had a great breakfast sandwich off of the a la cart menu today. Service was fantastic. Highly recommend.
We stayed at the Crowne Plaza Hotel and opted for the breakfast at Aria Restaurant. We were glad that we did that. The buffet breakfast was really really good. Lots of variety. The best part: you could make your own fresh squeezed juice and order your premium coffee from the bar. You could even order take out, even though the breakfast was a buffet style. They had smoothies, omelette station, hot food etc etc. I recommend you opt for the buffet breakfast if you stay at this hotel. It’s normally cost you $35.
Nice hotel breakfast with enough choices that you don't get bored of the offering over your stay.
The service is friendly and very quick with the coffee. The chefs at the egg station make great omelettes.
Had family breakfast here some were staying over at the crown hotel. It's average taste for some meals it over all lovely staff and good food. Kid friendly. Nice service too coffee great
The Spanish paella has a local Kiwi twist of using New Zealand green lip mussels!! So very well done. Perfect portion size as well.
Simply the best meal I have had. Lovely friendly staff. Quiet bit a noce atmosphere. If you stay at this hotel you have to eat here.
Very delicious with great service. The steaks were grilled perfectly. The lamb is also highly recommended.
Good place to hang out, unwind, and even work!
