Auckland Albany Hotels

I originally planned to stay for just one night since the hotel was newly opened and I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, I was so impressed that I extended my stay to three nights! It truly made my trip to Auckland unforgettable. From the excellent facilities to the exceptional staff, everything exceeded my expectations. The morning tea at the restaurant across the hotel parking was also absolutely delicious, adding to the wonderful experience. The hotel offers great value for money, and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone. Thank you for such a fantastic stay!

The hotel has new facilities and equipment, and the service is warm. It does not provide breakfast, and the surrounding is very quiet. There is a mountain path on the back side where you can pass a small waterfall, or you can walk to many places for exercise nearby. There is a bus at the door of the hotel that can reach the shopping center and the city center, 2 stops to Massey University, and 3-4 stops to the shopping center and supermarket. After you are familiar with the route, it is basically a 20-minute walk to the supermarket. The Albany area is generally sparsely populated and very quiet. If you like crowds and want to shop, it is more convenient to go to the city center.

The room was clean and tidy, the location was convenient, close to Westfield shopping within walking distance.

Early check in was no problem. Arrived two hrs earlier than our expected early check in time and the apartment was already ready! Clean and spacious for our family of 5 adults. Apartment was set with 5 single beds just as asked. Service was efficient and they were able to gladly offer extra towels and detergent when we asked for more. Westfield shopping center only a couple of minutes drive away. Location just as we wanted, away from the busy city but still convenient with shops and good restaurants close by.

Very clean and well equipped. Only wifi is not free and convenient enough to use.

Had a very late arrival, but the service was amazing. The room was super clean, and the location is perfect with stores and restaurants around the corner and 10 minutes drive to the beach

It was convenient because the inn was in the city center. The entrance to the building was always locked, so I don't think the security aspect was bad.

Room 101 was out through the first floor fire exit door, which led down to the car park. We couldn't have the curtains open because the windows overlooked another multi storied carpark and even if we did there was not a lot of natural light coming in. We couldn't have the window open because of the outside noise which went on until gone 7pm and started up again at 4.15 am making sleep almost impossible. The main room was compact and tidy but the toilet cum shower room was tiny and cramped. The bed was comfortable though. I would recommend asking for a room on the upper levels.

I am travelling with family with kids and elderly. The grand is probably the best central location that you can find in Auckland if you are taking public transport. The pickup and dropoff for Skybus to Auckland airport is a 5 min walk away. The surrounding has plenty of restaurants including japanese & Chinese food. Facilities wise it has a gym and a heated swimming pool which the kids enjoy. Room is clean & spacious. Hotel price wise is on a high but weighing all the plus points, I will book it again for all the reasons above.
