Where once a historic windmill sat, The Langham, Auckland is building on its own heritage of attentive service within this award-winning property. Partington's Windmill was a familiar landmark until its demolition in 1950. Originally built in 1851, the windmill's history includes being the home to flour milling and biscuit making for the English troops stationed in Auckland. This site in the heart of Auckland is near to all the major attractions of the city and adventures that lie beyond it. The Langham is a good choice for leisure travelers exploring this wonderful part of the world, as well as the business person travelling here to close a deal or two. A recent major refurbishment allows classic Langham elegance to be combined with contemporary style, underlining the hotel's three annual awards as the best hotel in New Zealand. A truly special stay can be had in the Langham Club rooms with exclusive privileges such as butler service. When it's time to relex, the health club features a fitness center, saunas, and heated outdoor swimming pool and Jacuzzi. The award-winning Partingtons, the hotel's signature restaurant named after the landmark windmill, serves contemporary New Zealand cuisine and boasts the "New Zealand Chef of the Year 2006". The hotel is known for its excellent meeting and event services, including a pillarless grand ballroom.
