The hype

$130-250 / noapte
Rezervă dacă You want a spacious, self-sufficient apartment within stumbling distance of Spark Arena or Britomart Station.
De ce o iubesc oamenii
- Unbeatable proximity to Spark Arena (literally across the road)
- Apartments have full kitchens and laundry, rare for this price point
- The 2020 refurbishment added a chic, modern feel to the rooms
Privire rapidă: A solid, practical base for concert-goers and extended stays, but don't expect the pool or gym to be in the same building.
Evaluat de @blackgermantraveler: I stayed here for a quick business trip and it was exactly what I needed. The room was spotless, the Wi-Fi was fast, and having a proper table to work at made a huge difference. Definitely my go-to for a stress-free Auckland stay.

The 'Nook' bar has a decent happy hour, but the nearby Britomart precinct has far better dining options.
5 lucruri pe care trebuie să le știi înainte să pleci
💡The 'gym' is actually a membership gym down the street, which is better equipped than most hotel gyms but less convenient.
💡The walk to the pool can be awkward in swimwear; wear a cover-up.
💡The balconies in some rooms are 'Juliet' style (standing room only), not full terraces.
💡You might smell the ocean breeze mixed with city exhaust due to the port location.
💡The elevators can get jammed with people before and after big arena events.
