Staying at VR Queen Street Hotel & Suites in the heart of Auckland was an absolute highlight of my trip. The hotel is impeccably clean and well-maintained, with a modern, cozy vibe that made me feel right at home. Located just steps from major attractions, shopping areas, and dining spots, everything I needed was within easy reach—no need to travel far for anything. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room offered great value for the price. From the comfortable bed to the quiet ambiance, every detail was thoughtfully designed. It’s definitely one of the best stays I’ve had in New Zealand, and I’d happily recommend it to anyone visiting Auckland.
VR Auckland City
My husband and I stayed at VR Auckland City for seven nights, and we absolutely loved our experience. The front desk staff, Thea, was incredibly welcoming and helpful during check-in—her friendly attitude set the tone for our entire stay. What stood out most was the hotel’s compact but well-equipped kitchen: it has a microwave, stove, oven, dishwasher, fridge, and even a washing machine. While the washing machine was temporarily out of order, the hotel offered free laundry service, which was a fantastic touch. The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of Auckland, with plenty of restaurants nearby and Sky Tower just a short walk away. Being able to buy groceries and cook our own meals made us feel like locals. It’s a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and authenticity. Highly recommend this place if you want to live like a New Zealander while exploring the city.
Ascotia Off Queen
This was our first stay at Ascotia Off Queen, and we were thoroughly impressed with the experience. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome throughout our two-night visit. (Quick note: the deposit is $250, not the $100 listed on the platform—we paid in cash and got it fully refunded upon checkout with zero hassle.) On the ground floor, opposite reception, there’s a cozy dining area offering both à la carte and buffet options, all priced fairly and served with care. Parking is limited, so booking ahead is strongly advised. We had no trouble finding a spot, though tight for larger vehicles—still manageable. Our room was compact but spotless and comfortable. The bed was clean and supportive, and the bathroom amenities—shampoo, body wash, and lotion—were thoughtfully provided. The only minor downside was limited storage space for luggage and a very small trash bin. Overall, this place exceeded our expectations. Great location, excellent service, and a really welcoming vibe. Highly recommend!
Kiwi International Hotel
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. We also appreciated the free parking, which was a big plus since we drove in. Everything about the stay was top-notch: clean rooms, friendly staff, and excellent value. I’d definitely stay here again on future visits to Auckland. Highly recommended!
Sofitel Auckland Viaduct Harbour
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.
Auckland City Hotel
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. It’s not your typical hotel setup, but it works really well for families or groups who want more space and privacy. Being in the city center, having free parking is a huge plus—just let the front desk know when you arrive, and they’ll open the gate for you. The breakfast buffet is generous and delicious, offering a great start to the day. Plus, the location is unbeatable—walking distance to shops, restaurants, and attractions. I’d highly recommend this place if you’re looking for comfort, convenience, and a little bit of local charm in central Auckland.

My colleague raved about this place, so I gave it a try — and honestly, it exceeded my expectations!

Just steps from the door, there’s a big supermarket, and major attractions like the iconic Sky Tower are only a 5- to 10-minute walk away. The best part? There’s a shared kitchen on one floor where guests can cook their own meals using fresh ingredients from the nearby store. It’s perfect for travelers who want flexibility and a bit of home comfort while exploring the city. I came alone, and this place made my trip feel personal, safe, and fun. If you’re looking for a great mix of convenience, affordability, and social vibes, this is definitely the spot. I’ll be back — no doubt.

If I’m ever back in Auckland, this will be my first choice again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality, convenience, and a memorable stay.
Edit Auckland Central
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.
