Frommer's Review
City Gallery has a reputation for challenging viewers with the best of contemporary visual art -- everything from painting, sculpture, film, and video to industrial and graphic design and architecture. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but if you want to find out what's happening in the New Zealand world of contemporary art, it's one of the best places to start. The gallery has a fully licensed cafe, bar, and restaurant.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
