Auckland hotels & places to stay

Rendevous Hotel in Auckland was really nice. The hotel itself is really comfortable with its own bar and restaurant and the rooms are really clean and comfortable. The staff are very helpful. The bed itself is really comfy. Value for money was brilliant. Was sorry that we had only one night to stay there but will stay again when we are back in Auckland. Views from the hotel of the Skycity are also lovely especially at night time

i have no complaints or negative things to say about auckland city oaks - it was a really good stay. i have stayed in several places like this in auckland but oaks is the best so far. other places offer free internet but the service is so poor and slow it's hardly worth having (such as the quadrant). indeed auckland city oaks was very good in all their provisions. i liked the breakfast - delivered each evening - although the juice was more sugar than fruit. more shelves and hooks in the bathroom would be a great idea - especially for 2 people sharing. our bedroom windows didn't close too fully and so it was a bit noisy from the road - but this is very common in auckland hotels and serviced apartments. double glazing doesn't seem to have reached nz yet. all the staff i encountered were really helpful and pleasant. a major problem for people travelling by public transport is location - the airport bus goes no where near hobson street and it cost $10 by taxi for the very short trip from the ferry building. i should have checked out the shuttle service.

Fantastic Hotel! Quick and easy check-in/ check out. Very clean. Great location! Excellent friendly staff. Couldnt really fault anything from my experience except the car park. Car park was a bit pricey however it seems to be a standard price with hotels in Auckland with the exception of this car park being quite spacious compared to others. Overall excellent experience and look forward to making it my regular hotel if ever in Auckland.

This hotel was perfectly adequate for our 2 day post cruise stay. This hotel is defiantly in the budget category and basically its one of those " what you pay for is what you get " deals similar to Ibis and Formulae 1 chains. However that being said the staff were helpful and welcoming and the rooms were clean but basic and the food was basic but was good value for the price paid. The lift was a VERY antiquated type*Think of the movie Thoroughly Modern Millie* (My partner was worried we would be stuck as it was very shuddery and bumpy when we stayed.) So if your looking for a good clean SHORT STAY BUDGET hotel in Auckland this will serve your needs however if your after a vacation hotel i would chose another more upmarket hotel in Auckland for your stay

This hotel is centrally located. Absolutely No complaint. Clean, good facilities, free wi-fi available in room. Good restaurants are available withing walking distance. Terminus of SkyBus, the most convenient airport transfer is located just near this hotel. Hotel staff are well behaved. I shall prefer to stay in this hotel if I go again to Auckland. I highly recommend this hotel in Auckland.

Everyone was SO helpful. The staff was always able to answer our questions. They had taxis ready when we needed them, they made sure the shuttle was on time and where to eat, what to see. Nothing was too much trouble. We came in from a cruise and stored our luggage before flying out to Cairns for 4 days. Our flight back into Auckland didn't get in until midnight. There was staff there to check us in. Also we were able to store our luggage again overnight before we left to come back to the US. This took a lot of the worry away and let us focus on New Zealand.

While Mt. Wellington is not an attractive suburb of Auckland this resort has beautiful grounds on a lagoon with a walking path all around it. the rooms were very comfortable with everything you needed. I stayed some of it in an amazing suite and then some in their basic affordable room and both were good values. Nice onsite gym but you could also walk across the lagoon to a fantastic pool and fitness center and hiking up Mt. Wellington was just across the lagoon too. Can't walk into town so a challenge without a car to go out for food. Close enough to play in Auckland but be out of the cities noise and congestion. Best if you have a car if you stay here.

The location is a bit difficult to find (for me at least). Because I arrived in Auckland at the Pier and the Google Map said it's just 700m away (a bit too near to cab), but it wasn't easy to locate because the building is narrow and is located on a slight upslope. If one takes a taxi, it might be a lot easier and will arrive right at the doorstep. The hotel has no free wi-fi (like many hotels in Auckland). BUT, unlike other hotels in Auckland, the charges for Internet is relatively reasonable. I was happy to pay the amount for 24 hours of internet access. Do note however, even if you pay for your internet access, you're only able to use the connection within the wireless router coverage in the room. When I got to the lobby, I asked the front desk, how do I access the Internet I paid for, she said it is not possible. I would have to go back to my room. Funny system. The location is at least 10 minutes walk to Queen Street. So be prepared to walk a little bit. I think overall, the Celestion Waldorf is an exceptional value for money. It's clean, chic and really uplifting interior was the best accommodation experience I had while holidaying in Auckland at that price. Would recommend others to stay here again.

We stayed at the Metro Suites Apartment Hotel on the 15th Floor. We had previously stayed with Luxy NZ Apartments which shares the same building as Metro Suites and found both companies to be very similar. The Check-in process was quick and easy. The reception (located on level 2) allowed us to check-in ahead of our check-time as the room was available. Free wifi was included with our stay. The one bedroom apartment we stayed in was sufficient for our needs. Laundry and kitchen facilities are provided within the room, which we found to useful, in particular the laundry. The location was fantastic within Auckland CBD, which allowed us to walk to many locations within the CBD. Highly recommend this hotel for travellers to Auckland.

We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay while we were in Auckland. Being so close to the motorway we found we could come and go to our main destination in Green Lane easily and quickly. The apartment was clean, spacious and well equipped and a great place to return to each day to have something to eat, relax and have a good sleep. Turns out one of us, years before, helped build the St Martins building, so for him it was a bit of a homecoming. Thank you to all. We would happily return.

Location is amazing, skybus (airport bus, city route, stop #7018, basically is the last stop), the bus stop is just outside the hotel (with in 10 seconds walk); HOTEL is in the city area (says about 8 mins walk (I think) to AUCKLAND sky tower, very close to), the opposite side is already the shopping area (HOTEL is about the end of the main street, also next to a huge H&M store.); Staff is great, very helpful & professional; restaurant & coffee shop very close too, I would definitely wanna try the hotel breakfast, but I was leaving the next day early morning, I will back the same hotel if I visit AUCKLAND in future, very nice. 5 stars.

Just needed a hotel as we were departing the following day from Auckland. Pros - The Staff were fantastic and assisted us by booking us in early, extremely helpful. - Rooms were very clean and tidy - Restaurant next door has a very good selection of food and drink. Highly recommend. - The yellow bus drops off from airport to hotels in area, about $12 return. Have coins or credit card. Cons - Cost, I’m guessing due to location I paid £74 a night. May have been the best deal ? But willlook next time at other local hotels that the The Yellow bus stop off at e.g Gateway Hotel, Holiday Inn,Kiwi Hotel,Naumi Hotel,Sudima Hotel and THL Campers. - Internet, this was a major issue for me as you only were aloud 2 hours and if you closed your browser down early you lost the remaining mins. Of course you can buy extra time but this is 21st Century and every hotel I’ve been in has 24 hour internet. Next time I will look at other hotels above.

I traveled with 2 friends and we stayed at the triple room. QSB is located very strategically in the town (off Queen Street) which is the reason I booked. Easy access to public transportation, supermarket, shops, walking distance to the Auckland harbor and Auckland tower. kitchen facilities is also good. Welcoming staffs. Check in and check out in a breeze. We got the room facing Fort St. It can be a bit noisy at night with bars and clubs below but we have no problem with that. If you want quieter room, you might ask. Parking is also a bit expensive around the area, you might want to ask the reception on cheaper parking area. We were told to park at Bringham St. (20mins walk away), which we did and happy as we managed to find a free park there while having a good time walking pass Auckland harbor, Silo park and waterfront on the way back/from QSB.

We were on a flight beginning in Bangkok then transiting at Melbourne to Auckland. It arrived approximately at midnight. I wanted to make sure that we would get some sleep before we moved on to the Central Business District of Auckland. They did provide free shuttle bus service 24 hours a day, and it was only 3 Km from the airport. Had to find breakfast since they had none, and that was our first impressions of New Zealand, a very expensive breakfast buffet at the Holiday Inn. Our overall stay at the Best Western BK Hotel was adequate and met its purpose.

On arrival, driving up in our hire the friendly greeting from the concierge was appreciated. He offered options for parking and recommended the valet parking as best value for money and indeed it was at NZD 25.00 per 24 hours - a great start! Check-in was friendly and seemless with our bags arriving less than 5 minutes after we got to our room. The location of the hotel being just 150m from the very pretty Albert Park and a short - 10 minute (downhill) stroll to transport central 'Britomart' and Auckland Ferry Terminal. The only disappointment was the restaurant - the two children's highchairs both had no restraint straps makng it impossible to restrain our wriggly and restless 15 month old daughter. We left the restaurant having ordered our dinner in search of external options. An easy fix for management to attend to! Overall we were very happy with all other aspects of our stay. Great hotel if you are heading to Auckland!

The bed was the most comfortable I have slept in! Fantastic view from the 11th floor of Auckland harbour and all of its activities. Just across the road from the cruise terminal, we walked with all our luggage. Everything was extremely clean and modern. The staff were mainly very young, but wonderfully helpful and went out of their way to do almost anything for us. The breakfast was delicious. The chef did a fantastic job. The menu was slightly limited but more than adequate for what we wanted and everything was fresh and looked great. We stayed in a Club room and it gave us an included breakfast, anything we wanted and between 5 and 7pm there were drinks, both alcoholic and soft and tea and coffee plus we had an antipasto platter and hot chips and the most fantastic olives. At this time they don't have a dedicated club room, we sat in part of the Beast and Butterflies restaurant on the ground floor. I will definitely stay here next time I come to Auckland.

Great Auckland hotel with superb views of the harbor from the upper floors (lower rooms may lack view). The 32nd floor two bedroom suite is well-appointed with every amenity and includes a kitchenette with large refrigerator and freezer. There is also a dishwasher and a washing machine. The staff is friendly and helpful and best of all, free 1GB of wifi per day, which is these days is a rare beast in Auckland hotels. The one negative comment that I can make is the location, which is directly across the street from Auckland’s “Red light district”, such as it is. Opposite the Auckland Harbour Oaks is the Penthouse Club and there are a few other strip clubs, massage parlors and the like. Otherwise, the location is fantastic, walking distance to the waterfront area and harbor as well as to Queen St. and central vicinity. Highly recommended.

We arrived in the early morning and were greeted by a friendly security guard who let us in. The room and view of Victoria Park, the city and Auckland tower was breathtaking. We were literally 10 minutes walk away from all the great restaurants and pups Auckland viaduct is famous for. 10 minutes walk in the other direction and we were in the heart of Auckland city where we could shop till our heart's content. From small private shops, famous chain stores to Gucci, Prada and Louis Vuitton. Busses, taxis and Uber is readily available to take you anywhere you want. Great place, great accommodation and great people! Highly recommended.

Second time staying in the M Gallery by Sofitel where in also had few nights' stay in Milan months ago. Recently renovated in a formerly tea house, the boutique hotel has a unique taste and class while sitting on the vivid Queen Street. Welcomed by their specially brewed tea and sincere conversation, I was kindly upgraded for the first night's stay and my other requests had been taken which is to move to a slightly higher floor. Knowing the history of the place with nice decor (and the jewel collection photos )and seeing the teapot set in the rooms, one would easily be travelling back into time and get nostalgic especially as you step into the elevator. Comfortable bed and decently spaced bathroom that would not disappoint. Their restaurant on the first level next to reception is definitely worth trying. Memorable stay at Auckland which is our first encounter in New Zealand. Thank you (the Sofitel team)for all your effort in keeping our stay special! gym and sauna available

It is my last stop of my biz trip. I have stayed at 3 other hotels during my week of business over ANZ. This is the best experience among the rests, and the price is reasonably priced. The subtle differences I notice are (1) complimentary water x 2 bottles (2) comfort slipper to use in the room (3) modern & clean (4) the food is delicious (5) buffet breakfast is good (6) nice & big bed (7) complimentary toiletries (8) swimming pool & gym (9) good service etc.. I had a morning call but did not answer as I was already awoke in the toilet washing up. The hotel send somebody to knock at my door to ensure that I was awake. This is fantastic! Though it is my last nite of stay, but I have deep & very good impression of the hotel. I will definitely stay at Sudima for my next trip to Auckland.
