When we booked the hotel we made sure there was 2 Queen beds and a sofa bed as there was 3 people staying. The first night after check in and getting back to the hotel we realised the sofa did not fold out into a bed. We alerted the 24/7 check in desk and they were quick to resolve the issue in the middle of the night. Overall it’s a nice hotel, it’s quiet, not too far of a walk from the sky tower and other attractions. The hotel had its own private car park, gym, smoke room and restaurant. Everything was clean and tidy. For a budget friendly stay I recommend Auckland City Hotel

We arrived on a Sunday evening and the restaurant and bar were closed, which isn’t mentioned anywhere. The staff on the desk wasn’t forthcoming with any suggestions. Which meant going out in the dark to search out some food.

Good quality within walking distance of CBD. Really comfortable bed, invaluable at the end of a long holiday. Fastest wifi we'd had as well. A 15 minute walk to the harbour and main shopping and dining opportunities. A hotel to return to when we arrange a return trip
