Hotel berhampiran St Michaels, Auckland

When i book through trip.com the confirmation email said the check out time is 12:00pm but in fact the check out time is 10:00am. The staff knock on my door at 10:10am and ask me to check out, otherwise will charge me for the late check out. It was so embarrassing. Location was good 5 mins to westfield shopping centre

TLDR: no aircon, constant power cuts, paper thin walls.. Where do I start. First off there’s no aircon so the rooms are hot and uncomfortable. There are ducted low speed fans which don’t do much. But the biggest problem is the fact the rooms are on what I believe to be motion sensors or some kind of timers so ALL power turns off every 25 seconds, this is not an exaggeration. This includes the lights, jug, the fan - everything. I stubbed my toes in the dark because the lights turned off while I was walking around, and they wouldn’t turn back on. Showering in the dark due the lights constantly on and off. Good luck making a coffee, showering, watching TV or anything without that being interrupted by constant power cuts which drive you mad. I booked the small room. They look small in the photos but even smaller in person and I felt like I was suffocating, the rooms are tiny so heat up like crazy. The smallest hotel room I’ve ever seen. Also the walls are paper thin so I could hear my neighbours conversations word for word.. even with ear plugs. If there was air con and sound proof walls, I could have put up with the extremely small space. Terrible experience. Don’t even bother with this place. The Abstract had a lot of potential as they have decorated it very nicely but they have let themselves down. It is also in a dangerous area of Auckland central so you will want to make sure you are back in your room by dark, lots of drunk homeless people around. After my first night of zero sleep due to the heat, stuffiness and neighbours chatting, I complained and had my room kindly upgraded to a larger one, but the same issues remained of constant power cuts and no air con in that room too. At least it was a bit cooler due to being larger and an extra window, also had no neighbours.. The customer service was pretty good. There is no parking on site so you have to park in a carpark building across the road. The food in the restaurant was average but has a beautiful outdoor dining area which was the highlight.

Overall, it was pretty good and very cost effective. Helpful staff. • Luggage storage room available. Laundry service avail on site (4 bucks for washing machine, 4 bucks for dryer & 2 bucks for washing powder), Ironing service was free of charge. • Toothbrush & Toothpaste were available upon purchase @ the reception. Hot water, box fan, kettle, small fridge, tea, coffee, sugar, clean towel, soap, shampoo were all avail. The first two nights I stayed, I had to use a shared bathroom, however, it was very clean. After that I extended my stay where I was moved to another room which included a bathroom. Also, perfect location as it is situated on the busiest street in the city centre where you'll find a lot of restaurants & shops nearby even supermarkets. * The down part was that it gets very noisy at night, you could hear the traffic & people on the street screaming. Plus, the mattress wasn't in its best shape.

Baik seperti biasa, kecuali kemudahan hotel lama di New Zealand agak ketinggalan zaman tetapi perkhidmatannya hebat dan kakitangannya sangat bersemangat

My partner and I had a great second stay at the Park side Hotel. We stayed in the spacious penthouse which comes with an upstairs and has an amazing view over the city and sky tower! Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, we asked for dinner recommendations and got more than we asked for! Desmond the GM went out of his way to accommodate us, he even transferred our luggage to our next destination, such a legend! The hotel is situated in the middle of the city centre and loads of great restaurants on a minute or so walking distance. We liked the Delicious bagels next door at the kosher Delhi NZ. Thank you Desmond and the park side team! We’ll be back next time!

Very impressive nothing to fault I will stay again and recommend to anyone good price maintained to the high standards on the scale staff were friendly and the check ins and outs pleasant greeting and farewell an were accommodating to our early check in ..Thank-you Nesuto staff

We enjoyed our time at this hotel. The rooms were clean, modern and quiet. The bed and pillows were very comfy and we felt well rested in the morning. We appreciated that the room we booked had a smart TV that we could connect to easily and watch the Lord of the Rings. We also appreciated that there was a microwave, small fridge and some kitchen items including a cutting board. The shower was huge with great pressure and the bath products contained coconut oil and smelled great. Only complaint we would have for the room is that the pipes were noisy when the faucet valve was opened a little bit and the glass shower door scrapped against the glass enclosure of the shower. There isn't much near the hotel but walking 10 minutes in any direction we could find something to do or eat. At check-in they gave us a list of recommended restaurants nearby but we found out the hard way that some kitchens close early in Auckland. We lucked out and got some World Cup Tickets on our last day in Auckland and were pleasantly surprised that the nearby Britomart Station offered free transport to Eden Park for ticket holders and this is normal for big events in Auckland. We were about a five minute walk from the station and that turned out to be really great. Getting to the airport/to this hotel from the airport is a little time consuming so we elected to use Uber.

Holiday Inn Express is one of my favorite hotels during my 2-week stay in New Zealand. It is located in the heart of Auckland’s cbd area and close to everything (shops, restaurants, bars, harbor). It is a 6-minute walk to the Sky Tower where you can pick up the Airport Express bus for $17 nzd. The hotel entrance is on a significant incline. The reception is on the 2nd floor which you can take either an elevator or escalator up. The cafeteria and small lounge are to the right of the reception desk. Breakfast was the usual scrambled eggs, sausage, ham, toast, yogurt, cereal, fruits, muffins, and other pastries. Due to the high volume of clients the 2 coffee machines were usually low on milk to make certain coffee drinks. I love the room set up. The closet is across of the bathroom and had plenty of room for your luggage. The shower is enclosed in a glass cube with wave designs. A nightlight in the bathroom saved on electricity if you need a little light to move around the room. The bed was comfortable and the a/c worked. The reception staff was kind to let me stay an extra hour past the check-out time for the room that I had with my tour. The room that I booked after the tour was ready early and I got to settle in at 11 am before my afternoon tour. Construction is happening around the hotel with the streets being torn up and a new building under construction next to the hotel. The hotel is well insulated that I couldn’t hear any of the construction.

Strategically located in the middle of Auckland CDB. We can easily walked around the main attractions.including Auckland Tower, the wharf, Queen St. Love the room view too which face the tower directly. Cleanliness perspective however was really disappointing.. The room was really dusty, not for the hidden corner like under the sofa/bed/top of cabinet, but obvious area like the sofa, basin, etc.

Stayed for a week for an intense work trip and it was really nice to come back to this very clean and comfortable hotel every night. Reception staff were great, especially Shane who was incredibly personable and helpful, he went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed.
