The vaccination centre is well organized at level 1, opposite cinema. Clearly guided around the site by the staff there, I am impressed by the professionalism of the vaccinator who had a comfort talking while completing the serious task. Online booking is user friendly. Inside is no camera allowed therefore no photos to display for the review :-)

Not a bad place to shop. First time Ive ever had to go on a escalator to get into a warehouse. Close by kmart and other stores.

Experienced some incredible customer service today at Smiths Sports Shoes. The young guy serving was incredibly knowledgeable, without coming across as a know it all, very courteous and friendly and provided truly first-class customer service. And because the price was so good I went in to get one pair of New Balance, and came out with two! One of the best places to go at The Base. Highly recommended!

I really dont see how charging staff of the base to park in STAFF parking areas they were ALREADY parking in to free up customer parking areas they have NEVER been allowed to park in is valid at all??It makes absolutely no sense!!Just another money making tatic, with no actual benefit to the ones having to pay for it.

We had to go to the Base as some other people had to, we went to the Chemist Warehouse. It was all very quiet and a lot of stores did click and collect but as always the Base is a very easy place to shop I like it.

Well I only went into 2 shops, an wow I was lucky to get a park. People everywhere, but I got my family Easter eggs an looked in the Pet Shop. The Base has something for everyone, an if you look you will get a bargain. Its a great place park for the kids, clean loos, an seating all over the Base to sit, also under ground parking to.

Soon to be charging my work colleagues to park in the unsafe staff car park. and to top it off you will be charging a fee for them to use the app. $2.30 per day not to mention the booking fee. where is money going to go? again penalising the hard working staff and retail workers who work in all of the shops.

Best place for weekend shopping to go with family with many different stores in one place. Variety of shops for people with different needs. Plenty of individual brand shops also can be seen in this place. Food courts of well known brands can be of great help after shopping.A large area of shops good car park area but it is open to the elements there are some grass areas to sit on and a play area for kids

I loved the bubble tea I had. I went to buy bras at farmers and a customer who claims she 70 told me hot gossip has better fitting ones. I did eventually look in that shop, quiet expensive store. Well shes either working for hot gossip or her daughter owns it or works their??? I found a perfect bra, camisole and tee shirt at farmers while I was in the shop to begin with. I wont ever glad back to hot gossip, scared I might bump into the malls nutter!! 🤣😂

This is the largest shopping centre in Hamilton. What ever you need you will get all in here. Hips of car parking available here. Nice deign of the shops here. According to there name of the shopping centre deign. One base on different stores. All toilets are nice and clean. Little bit tough to get parking to close of your favourite shop. But it’s handy if you like to walk more.

I went to meet a friend & park up over lunchtime. Being a large truck, I wondered how parking would go, but it was a cinch! The speed humps weren’t that easy, & the turning in was tight, but it was achievable. A great selection of shops, across a wide range of goods.
