Top Birkenhead Hotel Reviews

Novotel Auckland Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Always a pleasure to stay here <3"

Grand Millennium Auckland

8/10 Good

"Well appointed room. Not as clean as I would have liked. Had to request someone come and clean a sticky stain on the floor shortly after arrival. Buffet breakfast as expected. Disappointed to learn that one of the restaurants on site is only open 4 days a week. Couldn't get an on the day booking for the other as there was a large Fulton Hogan conference. Otherwise lovely hotel, great staff."

Auckland City Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Central city hotel that was easy to find, our room was spacious and clean with wet room bathroom so no need to climb into a bath to have a shower. Some road noise but rooms are back from Hobson St so not too bad (double glazing would help) There's limited onsite parking and as there was work being done on the front of the Hotel the contractors seem to take most of the parks. Hopefully once completed that will free up. Easy to walk to central Queens St etc (10min) and we found lots of restaurants at K Road (20 min) We will remember to stay again as Hotel is reasonably priced and ticks all the boxes. We didn't try the breakfast offering."
