"Great location for the ferry of train to and from the airport. Room was large and they sorted out one bedroom with a double and one with a twin, making it ideal for our family. The use of the kitchen and laundry facilities make the stay very flexible as we were travelling as part of a much longer trip, so a great opportunity to reset without needing to sit in the laundromat for ages. Gym was good, although the pool was cold, but is was August. Plenty of places to east nearby too."

ibis budget Auckland Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Simple but perfect for pre or post flight stay - 24/7 shuttle to airport terminals for $6"

Hotel Grand Chancellor Auckland

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed at the Grand Chancellor Auckland and honestly, the rooms were great, the location was spot on, but let’s be real—the true five-star experience was the bar staff. I don’t know what kind of magic training they’ve had, but I’m convinced they could mix a cocktail blindfolded while simultaneously solving world peace."
