Pet friendly hotel in Auckland

“I stayed for 2 nights at Takanini Park Motor Lodge and had a wonderful experience. The staff were very helpful, especially the manager who went out of the way to make sure everything was comfortable. The room was clean and well-maintained, and the location is convenient with easy parking. Definitely going to stay here again in the future...”

“A truly excellent and affordable motel. The owner is warm and attentive, the rooms are clean and tidy, and the location is superb. Five-star experience — I will definitely come back again!”

“I stayed at Park Ave Residence as a long term tenant and I must say my stay there was wonderful. The staff were friendly, warm and was always available. The facilities was well looked after by the cleaning staff who did a wonderful job. Some tenants needed to learn how to clean up after themselves but apart from that I would recommend Park Ave Residence anytime. It was handy to town and public transport and the view from the room I was in was awesome. I was is Rm 312. If ever I travel back to Auckland and need a place to stay I will be calling Park Ave Residence.”

“My first welcome to New Zealand. Run by a very friendly and helpful family. I stayed in a nice and clean recently refurbished room with top notch facilities including tea/coffee making facilities, a microwave, fridge, fast WiFi and a good TV with Sky. Very comfortable bed and an impressive shower. The hotel itself is in a perfect location on a good accessible main road and it has plenty of parking. Lots of places to eat nearby and a five minute walk from the train in to the city which itself only takes 15 minutes. Very happy with my stay.”

“Have lived here since 2021 and it's not at all bad from what others may say. This place helps out people in need and it's definitely not a boring time here lol people tend to keep to themselves but also there's a community here too. The owner Brad is very welcoming and this place helps people stay off the streets so definitely recommend for short or long term stays.”

“I stayed here for just one night and absolutely loved it! The place was clean, comfortable, and had a great atmosphere. The staff, especially Mana, was so friendly and welcoming ! He really made my stay feel special. I would definitely come back if I get the chance!”

“The hostel is very centrally located in Auckland CBD, making it convenient for sightseeing, public transport and walking to many spots. Many reviewers highlight the staff as helpful and friendly. One site noted: “Staff is really helpful and kind… value honestly you will get what you pay.” According to the hostel’s website, there are large shared kitchens, lounge/TV room, free high-speed WiFi, parking availability. Many travellers say that if you are staying only a few nights and are budget-conscious, it “does the trick”. From reviews: “It was ok but you got what you paid for. … close to city centre and affordable.”

“Had to go here for work. This place is an emergency housing building for people who are not as fortunate as you or I. It is kept clean and tidy and I found the residents to be warm and welcoming. There is probably no reason anyone would come here except to be housed. I just thought I'd give it a rap as they do a wonderful job in caring for people in our community.”

“I’ve booked a stay with Ascotia now several times previously and my experience staying with them was always very positive, their rooms are nice and always cleaned immaculately. Considering the price they are an extremely affordable option and my go to if ever I’m needing a hotel room in the CBD. They are conveniently located within a short walking distance to many ammenities. Short walking distance from both Queen street area as well as Kroad area. If anybody is seeking an affordable option for accommodation they would always be my first recommendation! ☺️”

“We had a great stay at VR Auckland City. The service was awesome, and the staff were very easy to communicate with requests like parking were handled quickly and smoothly. The room was comfortable, and the overall experience was truly enjoyable. Highly recommended, and we’ll definitely stay here again the next time we’re in Auckland!”

“Sufficient for staying a night or two. Central tobeverything in yhe cbd. Service is okay, desk manned continuously although they don't say much when you are coming and going. Studio room is small bit sufficient. I don't like that you have to step up to go into the small bathroom, will be a trip hazard during the night. Good price and good value though.”

“Really good , comfy and very clean”

“I had a wonderful experience with Oakwood Manor. The staff were exceptional, Simon and Lennie went the extra mile to get me to the airport in time for my flight amongst crazy concert traffic recently. My car was safely stored for the week and Lennie picked me up on my return. Simon welcomed me home with such genuine hospitality. I was not expecting to much of the room but was pleasantly surprised. It was clean, tidy, comfortable and well appointed for my short stay. The overhead fan was noisy but there was another available in the room. Overall exceptional value for money. I will definitely return. Thank you team.”

“Absolutely lovely motel. Beautiful clean rooms. Great service & great location. Would definitely stay here again.”

“The service at the apartment reception desk is very good, and the cleanliness of the garbage room and laundry area is excellent. The apartment environment has been improved. The newly opened restaurant downstairs has a nice taste.”

“This Motel is the best we have ever stayed at, the service and warmth of the owners was amazing. It was so comfortable and clean. We had an amazing stay. Thank you”
