Stayed here for two nights right after arriving at the airport, and it was an excellent choice.

The location is perfect—right in the heart of the city, super convenient for public transport and close to major attractions. I loved the shared kitchen—it’s well-equipped and made it easy to cook meals, which saved me money and added a fun social vibe.

Ponsonby Manor Guest House
We absolutely fell in love with the charm and location of this charming guest house! The historic building has such character, and being just a short walk from the city center makes it incredibly convenient. If you're after a view, rooms #5 and #9 are definitely worth requesting—those city vistas are unforgettable. The property is well-maintained and full of old-world elegance. While staff presence is minimal, it didn’t detract from our stay at all—we found it easy to navigate on our own and appreciated the quiet, peaceful atmosphere. It’s the perfect choice for travelers who value comfort, authenticity, and a bit of quiet retreat in the heart of Auckland.
Haka House Auckland K'Road
Located in the heart of Auckland's CBD, this Haka House property is a bit of a drive from the airport—about an hour on average, so plan accordingly. I’ve stayed at several Haka House locations before, and this one maintains the brand’s consistent vibe and cleanliness. That said, the mattress here was a letdown for me—it wobbled noticeably even with slight movement. A light roll over felt like being on a rocking boat, which definitely disrupted my sleep quality. If you’re sensitive to bed stability, it might be worth requesting a different room or checking reviews for other floor plans. Still, the staff were friendly, the space was well-maintained, and overall, it’s a solid choice for travelers who value location and local character, despite that minor drawback.
LyLo Auckland, an EVT Hotel
Staying at LyLo Auckland was a fantastic experience overall. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from major city attractions, with easy access to bus stops, the ferry terminal, and nearby supermarkets. The room was clean, quiet, and well-designed with individual capsule-style beds and secure lockers, offering great privacy and peace of mind. Bathrooms and toilets are plentiful and kept immaculately clean, which is always a plus in shared accommodations. I appreciated the free luggage storage option—perfect for early arrivals or late departures. The only downsides were the small, slightly cluttered kitchen with limited facilities, and only two hairdryers available for all guests, which caused some inconvenience during peak times. Still, these minor issues don’t take away from the excellent value and comfort this property offers. Highly recommend for budget-conscious travelers who prioritize location and cleanliness.
Verandahs Parkside Lodge
Staying at Verandahs Parkside Lodge was an absolute delight. The property is immaculately clean and thoughtfully maintained, with a warm, welcoming atmosphere from the moment you arrive. The host went above and beyond by personally showing us around the surroundings, sharing local insights, hidden gems, and nearby attractions with genuine enthusiasm. It felt less like a stay and more like being welcomed into a local’s home. Located just minutes from public transit, it’s easy to explore Auckland’s vibrant city center, while still enjoying a quiet, peaceful retreat. The attention to detail, combined with such a friendly and knowledgeable host, made this experience truly special. If you’re looking for a comfortable, authentic, and well-located place to stay in Auckland, this is a must-book.
City Lodge Accommodation
Staying at City Lodge Accommodation in Auckland was an absolute highlight of my trip! The location is fantastic—just a short walk from Queen Street and the waterfront, making it super convenient for exploring the city. I arrived from the international airport via the North Line train and then transferred to the NX1 bus, which took about an hour. With an AT Hop card, the fare was only around $5—great value for such a smooth journey. The room is on the smaller side, but perfectly functional with smart space utilization. What really stood out was the shared kitchen—it’s fully equipped and perfect for cooking up a storm. I even joined a group of fellow travelers to make and bake pizza together (check photos 2 and 3)—such a fun, social vibe! The area right outside the front door (photo 1) is clean, safe, and welcoming. Plus, the building is quiet at night, so sleep quality was excellent. Overall, this place offers great value, a friendly atmosphere, and unbeatable convenience. Ideal for solo travelers or small groups looking to connect and explore Auckland like a local.
