Hotel & Motel & Hostel in Auckland

“Can't recommend Critter Creek enough. They are so good with our blue heeler and understand her 'ball possessiveness' and other foibles. We always know we are leaving her in safe, true animal loving hands :)”

“Gilbert is an incredibly genuine person and a pleasure to work with. He always goes above and beyond to accommodate my schedule and make the whole process smooth and stress-free. His communication is clear, timely, and professional, and you can tell he truly cares about delivering the best service possible. If you’re looking for a reliable, committed, and knowledgeable property manager, Gilbert is absolutely the one to trust. Highly recommend!”

“Great friendly staff and ample parking”

“We loved our stay at the Mini Homestay. It was our family's (2 adults & 2 children) home for 17 days. Our Hosts Tracey and Lin were very helpful and knowledge. They went out of there way to help us get settled in NZ. Tracey even gave us proof of address so we could open bank accounts etc. Her home stay is conveniently located close to the bus stop which takes you to the mall or CBD. Her homestay is clean and tidy. I would definitely recommend this awesome home stay to all my friends!”

“We had the best family holiday break staying in the motel units at Orua bay, despite the weather. The lovely hosts made us so welcome and catered to our every need. The extended family especially enjoyed family games of cricket on the lawn when the weather cleared, the setting was amazing and well worth the drive out. Thankyou so much for making this a wonderful family weekend away.”

“Pre Xmas dinner, brilliant staff lovely food lovely, thank you so much, we actually had overseas folks there this time most impressed. Thank you for making our Xmas, Neil and Margaret Chapman”

“We loved our experience at Le Chalet in Waiheke. Heidi and Steve were fantastic to deal with, our rooms were lovely and modern yet had a homely feel to them. The view was great and the pool area a fantastic place to relax.”

“The stadium is small but creates a top atmosphere- staff were very friendly nd the food was good- what’s not to like here. Parking as easy as well and the others had a good time- perfect for a family night out.”

“What a fantastic place, stayed from the 6th to the 9th April, I chose here as it is very close to the Southern cross hospital where I had my operation. My room was really nice close to the main entrance which was a big bonus, the staff were really nice and helpful. Plenty of food places around even though I didn’t use them. Hoyt’s cinema close by as well. But as I mentioned earlier it was the helpful staff that impressed me the most. I highly recommend this motel and would definitely stay again.”

“My go to accommodation when I head up to Orewa. Always clean beautiful rooms.”

“We have stayed here twice now and really enjoy it. It is easy to get to. They make valet parking a breeze. The rooms are a good size, breakfast is great and we really enjoy the inside pool/ spa/ sauna that you can use regardless of the weather. I would definitely return.”

“Nice property. Had a mate's wedding there. The ambience was great. The rooms were pretty clean. Loved it overall.”

“Stayed here for a tennis tournament as the tennis center is very close. We had a 2 bedroom apartment with 3 people. Our room was on the top floor, was spacious with a balcony which had lovely views. Both bedrooms had a tv and one had an ensuite bathroom. Beds were comfy and it was quiet. The kitchen had everything including a full size fridge which was good for 3 people. Parking was free outside business hours and the weekend which worked for us. Check in was easy and staff were very friendly. Noting that the room is not serviced every day especially not weekends, bit when we asked if the rubbish could be removed they did it promptly. Overall we had a pleasant stay and would come again.”

“Trendy place, great vibe. Private room had plenty of space. Great location downtown Auckland, easy walk to the port. There is a parking beside the hotel, you just need to download the app and it's pretty simple”

“We are presently staying at this newer hotel for 5 nights , checking in was smooth and friendly… our room is modern , very clean and has everything we need .. it has a great location , accessible to bus routes.. if I had to suggest something: it would be nice to have an ice machine in the building !”

“Great accomodation in central Auckland. Despite the very central location, rooms are quiet. The hotel has a pool, spa pools and sauna, all indoors to use no matter the weather outside. The room was very clean, nice modern facilities, complete kitchen, even laundry in the room. Great facilities overall. The front desk staff was a hit&miss, check-in experience was average, the staff member could have been friendlier when explaining things. The check out staff very nice. Reception is 24hrs. Loved the layout of the hotel, which was easy to park and unload off the road. Very pleasant stay at Avani, I would stay again.”

“Great place, nice hosts and pool. A little tight room for 4 people, but manageable, for three persons it was great. Breakfast was simple but good. Surrounding area was peaceful and had nice nature.”

“Couldn't ask for a better location to catch a flight the next day. We ate at the restaurant and the service and food was very good. There was some construction going on but it was fine. Room was clean and nice.”

“We really enjoyed the stay! The room was very neat and clean when we checked in. We had an expo to go too and it was conveniently located within walking distance. I will also add that it is within walking distance to Newmarket and Mt. Eden!”

“My little dude has been going to Doggy Dogs since he was 4 months old! He LOVES it. It has done amazing things for him. As a pup he was terrified of other dogs- now because of Doggy Dogs he loves nothing more than to play with his friends. His confidence just shot up. I know he's well looked after, well stimulated and that he enjoys it. He gets super excited when we arrive! The owner knows her stuff about dogs and has lots of experience working with them. Would totally recommend!”

“Best Hostel I‘ve ever been to. Wanted to stay for a weekend and bow it‘s already more than am month. Living in the Hostel feels like renting a house with friends and family. I would recommend it!”

“Stunning views, beautiful atmosphere, excellent food. Staff was friendly.”

“We went to the Cafe for lunch. It was quiet however speaking to the staff it gets very busy during the weekend. The food was excellent and the service great. A lovely place for lunch if you’re looking for beautiful surroundings and plenty of room to relax.”

“The Hunting Lodge is such a beautiful wedding venue. As a wedding photographer, I always love shooting here. The grounds are stunning year-round, and the sunsets over the vineyards are next level. There are several ceremony options, including right at the edge of the vines or beside the iconic Barn. I also love the vintage caravan bar, it adds such a fun, relaxed energy and looks amazing in photos! With their in-house wine, relaxed vibe, and versatile indoor-outdoor flow, The Hunting Lodge is one of the best winery venues in Auckland :)”

“One of the best dining experience. Food was delicious and the ambience of the place gave me the Christmas feeling well. Sure I will visit this place once again with my family. Thank you for all the people who served us in Circus Circus. Cheers.”

“i went to this camp for school it was AMAZING. it was abit of a long drive but it was SUPER COOL. but some bags got left in the bus but still 5 stars. my favourite part was rainbow tag. thank you for letting us stay a big thank you from waiuku primary school”

“Great location close to eateries and grocery store. Very new and rooms come with addition of a kitchen, washer, dryer , I will book this place again next time I am in Auckland”

“We absolutely loved our stay at Quest Carlaw Park Apartment Hotel! The staff were fantastic, friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The rooms and facilities were spotless, and I appreciated how well everything was maintained. Indoor parking was super convenient and easily accessible. The area is peaceful and quiet, yet just a short distance from the CBD, shops, and great restaurants. Perfect balance of comfort and convenience. Highly recommend!”
