Have a Ball in Auckland: Celebrate New Year’s Eve at The Langham

Herald in the new year with a glamorous affair at The Langham Auckland, the five-star hotel celebrated for its superb leisure and business facilities in New Zealand's largest city. Don your best and get ready to party.

Or go all out with the nine-course degustation dinner at Partingtons, which includes a complimentary pre-dinner glass of Laurent-Perrier and canapés in The Winery, where a five-piece blues and jazz band will play from 6:30 pm. $210 per person. "Stay the Night" and you'll finish the night of revelry with a bottle (and say goodbye to 2008) with a bottle of Laurent-Perrier Champagne, then escape to your room of luxury, where you can sleep off the festivities in a lush super-king bed enjoying every second of your late check-out at 1 pm. Priced at $339 per room. On New Year's Day, wake up to a lavish breakfast buffet at SBF, the perfect recovery.
