Vertigo Restaurant & Bar is located at the top floor of Mercure Auckland in the heart of the city, on the corner of Queen Street and Customs Street and is renowned for its romantic panoramic harbour and city views.

Mercure Auckland General Manager Roberts Ejubs says the risqué idea offers something completely unique for couples celebrating Valentine’s Day.

“At Vertigo, we are focused on offering ‘Pure Pleasure’, so our staff decided to have a little fun and we came up with this special Valentine’s menu based on the world’s most popular aphrodisiac foods. It’s going to be a fantastic evening for diners – both during and after their meals!”
