The unit is in the heart of Auckland CBD in saying everything is just walking distance away. Wilson parking is just across the building for your convenience.

Eden park, AUT, train station, the port, supermarkets, pharmacy, and different signature shops - all are just under 10mins. walk.

Great location

In addition to a great central location where we could walk to everything, this was a comfortable unit in a nice hotel. The bed was the best part - even more comfortable than my own. We had wonderful sleeps. And, despite the fact that it’s in the middle of the city, it was very quiet. We really enjoyed it.

Easy, great location, responsive host

Mini market was accomodating and friendly in looking after our stuff, and conveniently placed right outside. Good shower, comfortable bed, good air con, relatively quiet. Overall, small but clean, functional and comfortable. Good comms from host. Free swimming pool was a nice way to relax. We stayed for 3 nights and plan to book again at the end of the month when we're back in Aukland for the return flight.

Excellent location

We really enjoyed our stay, It was a great pied-à-terre for short trips outside of Auckland and a great location for walking to all the sites we wanted to visit. The king bed was very comfortable and everything was there when we wanted to snack or breakfast. We used the fitness area, both the equipment and the pool.

Fantastic location in Auckland

We enjoyed the location, cleanliness, neighbourhood Of this lovely suite in Auckland. We walked everywhere. It was less than a 10 minute walk to the wharf to take ferries to wear hickey island and Devonport. It was clean and well appointed and we would definitely recommend it for two people wanting to see the sites in Auckland.

Very well located and good value for your money

The suite is located at the CityLife property, so there are apartments that belongs to the hotel and some that are private owned, such as this one. It makes the location very secure as there are 24/7 reception and security for the hotel. The suite was simple, but equipped with all you need for a trip. Good value for money. Kym was very attentive and responding fast. I would stay again!!!
