Matatiki Hornby Centre - Pool & Customer Services

“I'm deeply impressed! First and foremost: Yes, there is a fare for showering only. For 3 dollars, you can use the hot showers inside the super clean and comfortable changing rooms. But I highly recommend visiting the pools, though. They're brand new, easily accessible by a stepless entry in every pool, and the main one has a useful depth about 180 cm. Choose a lane depending on your swimming speed. Friendly staff's around all the time, on Saturdays at least 3 lifeguards, 2 instructors, and 1 supervision. Kids will have lots of fun playing. The best thing on top is that they play music there, which creates a chilled atmosphere.”

“Good pricing, clean spacious facilities. Spa was very large and felt nice. Cold pools were temperate and nice to use even during winter. Changing rooms were very good, warm, with hot showers. They also have multiple family changing rooms, some with a shower, some with a toilet and a shower. Cafe had a pretty minimal cabinet selection, good if you are already there or want a hot drink, but not enough if you want meal options.”

“Fantastic modern pool. The hydrotherapy pool was great, especially for my pregnant wife. The lane pools have not been too crowded at 3:30pm and 5pm on weekdays when I’ve gone. The spa pool is good but can be a bit crowded. And the clothes drying device for after you’ve swum is fantastic!”

“Awesome pool complex - everything you could want. From the fantastic greeting as you get to reception, friendly lifeguards, and then lots of great lanes. Can’t recommend highly enough!”
