Andelin Guest House

Staying at Andelin Guest House in Devenport was an absolute delight. This charming period property feels like stepping back in time, with elegant details throughout. The host couldn’t have been more welcoming—warm, friendly, and always ready to help. Our room (Room 1) was spacious and beautifully appointed: the bed was incredibly comfortable, and the huge bathroom featured a stunning rolltop tub that made for perfect relaxation. Coffee and tea are available anytime—perfect for early mornings or late-night cravings. Location is fantastic—just a short walk to town, great restaurants, and the waterfront, where you can easily catch a boat to Waiheke Island. It’s a dreamy escape for nature lovers and city explorers alike. Truly a standout stay.

Peace & Plenty Inn

I was really disappointed with my stay at Peace & Plenty Inn in Auckland. The property used to have a peaceful, green atmosphere, but the owner removed nearly every tree around the house—front, back, and sides—leaving behind a barren, lifeless space. It's heartbreaking to see such a once-beautiful spot stripped of its natural charm. The owner seems completely indifferent to neighbors and the surrounding environment, showing no regard for sustainability or community harmony. I can't believe someone would prioritize personal preference over preserving green spaces in an urban area. While the location is decent and the price is fair, the lack of respect for nature and the neighborhood makes this experience far from enjoyable. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone who values peace, greenery, or responsible hosting.

Braemar on Parliament St

Staying at Braemar on Parliament St felt like stepping into a real-life storybook. This beautifully preserved colonial-style townhouse in central Auckland exudes charm from the moment you walk in—every corner, from the living room to the bedrooms, is filled with vintage elegance and character. It’s not just a place to sleep; it’s an immersive experience of Kiwi lifestyle. Though some rooms have shared bathrooms or only partial privacy (with screens), cleanliness was spotless—each space was meticulously cleaned daily. The host, a warm-hearted local elder with a sharp wit and endless stories, made every interaction feel personal and genuine. Breakfast was a highlight: a classic English spread with fresh salads, toasted bread, homemade jams, and perfectly cooked eggs and bacon tailored to your preference. What stood out most? The world map by the dining area, covered in pins from guests across continents—it’s proof this place truly feels like home away from home. Located on a quiet street just steps from the university and a peaceful park, it’s both serene and incredibly convenient for exploring the city. If you’re after authenticity, comfort, and a touch of old-world charm, this is a must-try. Just be aware: if you expect modern amenities and full en-suite bathrooms, it might not match those expectations. But for a unique, heartfelt stay, it’s absolutely worth it.

Quest Newmarket Serviced Apartments

Staying at Quest Newmarket Serviced Apartments has been a consistently great experience. The apartment is incredibly well-equipped with all the essentials I need for a comfortable stay—kitchenware, cleaning supplies, bedding, and everything in between. It feels like home away from home, especially since I didn’t have to bring much extra. The location is fantastic—just a short walk or quick subway ride into downtown Auckland, and there are so many restaurants, cafes, and shops nearby. I never had to go far for food or daily needs. The unit itself is spacious, thoughtfully laid out, and quiet, making it perfect for relaxing after a long day. Clean, convenient, and affordable—this place delivers on every front. I’d definitely recommend it to friends and family, and I’ll be back again soon.

Auckland Rose Park Hotel

The three-bedroom room was spacious and incredibly comfortable, making it perfect for families or groups. What stood out most was the excellent value for money—this place offers so much for the price. Right across from the hotel is a serene rose garden, where I enjoyed morning coffee surrounded by blooming flowers. It's also just a short walk to the waterfront, ideal for a relaxing stroll along the shore. The only downside is that it’s a bit farther from the airport, but the local transport links are solid—public transit makes getting into the city quick and easy. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay, contributing to a very pleasant experience. Overall, this is a fantastic choice if you're looking for comfort, charm, and a peaceful atmosphere without breaking the bank.

Copthorne Hotel Auckland City

Staying at Copthorne Hotel Auckland City was an absolute highlight of my trip! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, especially to Chinese guests—no language barriers at all. I was truly impressed by how thoughtful and attentive they were throughout my stay. The breakfast buffet was outstanding—huge variety with plenty of options that catered perfectly to Asian tastes: fresh dim sum, congee, local pastries, and more. It’s rare to find such a generous spread at this price point, making it excellent value for money. The hotel is ideally located just a short walk from the city center and close to public transit, so exploring Auckland was super convenient. There's also ample free parking—which is a big plus if you're driving—and a self-service laundry room, which comes in handy on longer stays. Clean rooms, reliable Wi-Fi, and a peaceful atmosphere made this a perfect base for both business and leisure travel. If you’re visiting Auckland, this hotel should definitely be at the top of your list.

The Bays Bed & Breakfast

Staying at The Bays Bed & Breakfast in Auckland was an absolute delight. The room was spotlessly clean, cozy, and filled with natural light—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The host, originally from Fiji, was incredibly warm and welcoming, sharing stories about his culture and local life with genuine enthusiasm. Breakfast was a highlight—fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and full of flavor. I especially loved the homemade jam and fluffy pancakes. The location is fantastic, just steps away from the waterfront, making it ideal for morning walks or watching the sunrise over the bay. With its friendly vibe, attention to detail, and unbeatable charm, this place offers amazing value. I’d happily return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Auckland.

Carnmore Hotel Takapuna

Staying at Carnmore Hotel Takapuna was a fantastic experience—great value for money and perfectly located in the heart of Takapuna. We spent two nights here and loved how walkable everything was, with the main shopping area just a short stroll away. The room was spacious and well-equipped with a fridge, microwave, and other kitchen essentials—perfect for preparing simple meals. There’s even a cozy little coffee shop just 100 meters from the hotel, ideal for a morning pick-me-up. Best of all? Free parking, which is a huge plus for travelers driving in. Clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, this motel exceeded our expectations. Definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Auckland.

Quest Carlaw Park

Staying at Quest Carlaw Park in Auckland was a delightful experience from start to finish. The room was spotlessly clean, bright, and well-lit with morning sunlight streaming through the windows—perfect for waking up on the right foot. What truly stood out was the peaceful location just behind a large, beautifully maintained park. It felt like having nature right outside my door—ideal for early morning walks or relaxing with a book. The hotel is quiet yet convenient, just a short commute from downtown Auckland, making it easy to explore the city while still enjoying a serene retreat. Excellent value for money, and I’d definitely return. Highly recommended for travelers who want a calm, comfortable base with easy access to urban life.

The Spencer Hotel

Staying at The Spencer Hotel in Auckland was an absolute delight. The room was spotlessly clean, well-appointed, and incredibly comfortable—perfect for a relaxing getaway. Located right on a vibrant street, it’s just steps away from shopping, dining, and the city’s main attractions. Public transit is super convenient, making it easy to explore the city without needing a car. The hotel offers all the essentials you’d want: modern amenities, friendly staff, and a welcoming atmosphere. I truly felt at home.

The Quadrant Hotel & Suites

The Quadrant Hotel & Suites offers excellent value for money and truly has everything you need. The rooms are clean, spacious, and well-equipped with facilities like a kitchenette, laundry options, and comfortable seating—perfect for longer stays or self-catering. The overall environment is spotless and welcoming. However, one aspect stood out negatively: the front desk staff’s attitude during our check-out process. We had just left the room and needed to quickly return to store our luggage before heading into the city to pick up some souvenirs. There was no one else around, and we weren’t blocking anything—we were as quick and considerate as possible. Despite that, the staff reacted with clear impatience, rushing us with sharp tones and uninviting body language. It felt unnecessarily harsh, especially since we weren’t causing any disruption. A little more empathy and flexibility would have made a big difference in our experience. That said, the hotel’s comfort, location, and amenities still make it a solid choice. With better guest service, this could easily be a 10/10 stay.

Adina Apartment Hotel Auckland Britomart

Staying at the Adina Apartment Hotel Auckland Britomart was an absolute highlight of my trip to Auckland. The hotel is brand new with a sleek, modern design that really stands out. The apartment-style rooms are spacious, well-equipped, and incredibly comfortable—especially the bed and bathroom setup, which felt more like a home than a hotel. The staff were friendly, professional, and always ready to help, making the check-in and check-out smooth and stress-free. Location-wise, it’s unbeatable—just a short walk to the waterfront and the vibrant heart of Britomart. I loved strolling along the harbor at night, enjoying the lively atmosphere, great dining options, and boutique shops nearby. Public transport access is excellent too—easy to get around the city from here. Overall, this place offers a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and style. Highly recommend for travelers who want a stylish, hassle-free stay in the middle of it all.
