I stayed at ibis Auckland Ellerslie during a trade show at Auckland Showgrounds, and the experience was excellent. The hotel is conveniently located near public transport—easy to reach by taxi, bus, or even on foot—and just a short walk from the train station, making it simple to get into the city center. I especially appreciated that the facilities, including the restaurant and gym, are shared with the nearby Novotel, offering more space and better amenities without extra cost. The staff at Acacia Restaurant went above and beyond when I had an allergic reaction—they responded quickly and offered genuine help, which made me feel safe and cared for. It’s also reassuring knowing there’s a private hospital right behind the property, giving peace of mind if needed. Overall, this is a well-located, comfortable, and thoughtful choice for business travelers and tourists alike.
