10/10 Excellent
"Honestly the best hotel we’ve stayed at in a long time! Right away staff were friendly and attentive, they go above and beyond to make sure you feel welcome. Our room was clean and spacious, and the complimentary snacks and drinks were a nice surprise! I had an adults only vibe in mind before we arrived but the hotel was super family friendly. We called a few times for extra towels etc and they arrived within minutes, so so good! Good service goes a long way and we can’t fault our stay at all! We’ll be back for sure!"

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Auckland

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Auckland is from May to July, when hotel prices typically drop. For those looking to make the most of their stay, spending at least 2 to 3 days is recommended to fully appreciate the city's significant landmarks and cultural attractions. During this time, visitors can explore the bustling port, enjoy diverse shopping options, visit fascinating museums, indulge in delicious dining experiences, and take part in informative tours. With friendly locals, striking monuments, and the unique presence of dormant volcanoes, Auckland offers great value for money for those on a budget.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: For travellers heading to Auckland, Hotels.com may offer hotel deals through its DealsOpens in a new window section, where discounted rates might be available on nearby hotels. Checking the Last-Minute Deals section could reveal savings for spontaneous trips, while enabling email alerts or push notifications may help you stay updated on flash sales. Additionally, using the Smart Shopping tool on the app could help compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you’re more likely to spot a discount or a room becoming available in the Auckland region.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may differ depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and time of year. Being flexible with your dates could help you save on your stay in an Auckland hotel. For those seeking a distinctive experience, boutique hotels may provide a more personalised service and potentially offer better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the pricing appears to be on the higher side, we may suggest more economical dates to help you find a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels located near the city centre generally tend to be more expensive, but thanks to Auckland's superb public transport links, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel situated further out that remains well-connected. For those wishing to explore alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby towns, there is often excellent value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
