Staying at Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour was an absolute delight. Located right by the waterfront, the views from the room were stunning—especially in the morning when the sun hit the harbor. The area is bustling with great dining options, so you never have to go far for a good meal. I’m actually planning to compare it with Park Hyatt on my next trip, but this stay already left me thoroughly impressed. The service was attentive without being overbearing, the room was elegant and spacious, and the overall atmosphere felt luxurious yet welcoming. It’s rare to find such a perfect blend of comfort, location, and style. If you’re visiting Auckland, this hotel is definitely worth considering—it’s not just a place to sleep, it’s an experience.

The Park Hyatt Auckland truly lives up to its reputation—exquisite service, elegant design, and a prime location just steps from downtown Auckland. I was upgraded to a sea-view room, which sounded promising, but the actual view was underwhelming. The room is slightly low in ceiling height, and the windows are only covered with sheer curtains, so the ocean view is quite limited—definitely not what I expected. That said, the overall experience was exceptional. From the luxurious amenities to the thoughtful touches throughout the property, every detail reflects Hyatt’s high standards. The staff were attentive and friendly, and the rooftop bar offers stunning city views at sunset. Despite the slight disappointment with the room upgrade, I’d still highly recommend this hotel for its charm, comfort, and unbeatable location.

Staying at the InterContinental Auckland was an absolute delight. The location is unbeatable—right across from the waterfront and just steps away from the start of Queen Street, making shopping and exploring effortless.

The room was spacious and comfortable, featuring two generous 1.5-meter twin beds—perfect for couples or friends traveling together. Everything about this hotel felt premium, from the elegant design to the thoughtful touches. If you're visiting Auckland, this is definitely a top-tier choice.

Stayed at this hotel from September 11th for six nights, and I’ve returned after a gap—definitely glad I did. Last time I was on the ground floor; this time I stayed on the top floor, and the views were absolutely stunning with a wide-open outlook over the city. Being right in the heart of Auckland makes getting around incredibly convenient—everything is within walking distance or just a short ride away. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any request. As a solo traveler, their support made a big difference and really eased my stay. The room was spotless, spacious, and had a comfortable queen-sized bed that allowed me to sleep soundly each night. One minor downside: the area in front of the hotel has a steep slope, and there’s ongoing construction nearby, which made hauling heavy luggage a bit of a challenge. But honestly, it’s such a small issue compared to the overall experience. Great location, excellent service, and fantastic value—highly recommend for anyone visiting Auckland.

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.

We booked a three-bed room for our business trip, and the Kiwi International Hotel had exactly what we needed—one room with two beds and another with a single bed. The rooms were spacious and comfortable for all three of us, with no feeling of crowding. The hotel’s location is fantastic—just a short walk from the Sky Tower and close to public transit, making it super convenient for exploring Auckland.

Staying at the Auckland City Hotel on Hobson Street was a fantastic experience. The layout is unique—two-story rooms with a kitchen and living area downstairs, plus two bedrooms upstairs and one bathroom located on the second floor.
