I was disappointed in my stay at this hotel. While it’s location is convenient to many things it’s nearly impossible to find parking nearby. There is a small amount of parking in the basement but not enough for even a small fraction of total guests. Finding street parking in this area is a nightmare especially while local schools are in session. Our room was small but otherwise okay. Sadly the shower in our bathroom was very difficult to use without flooding the entire place. Some glass partitions or better fitting shower curtains were definitively needed. Our stay was also disrupted by ongoing construction noise from an adjacent building site. Not the hotel’s fault but annoying nonetheless. This facility clearly has a marketing deal with nearby Goodside. Goodside was hyped as ”an exquisite collection of Auckland’s finest boutique food and beverage restaurants - one of Auckland’s more delectable dining destinations.” So based on the hotel’s recommendation we braved the rain and went to check it out. It was neither delectable or even open in most cases. The best thing on offer was a Subway franchise. Some of the restaurants may have been open during the day but the place was dead in the evening. We were literally the only potential customers in the place. I don’t expect Goodside will survive much longer and I certainly wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. I also think it’s bad form that Quest endorsed it so favorably.

The hotel is in a good location, with Subway, Chinese restaurants nearby, and a 15-minute walk from a large supermarket and a Chinese supermarket The sanitation of the hotel is very good and the service is also very good. There is now a construction site next to the hotel, but fortunately, construction is only around 9 in the morning. The hotel has triple rooms, and you can also choose standard rooms with extra beds.

This place is enchanting - a little oasis a block from downtown Takapuna! The complex is focused round the pool and lush gardens. When we visited it was hot and sultry on the shore, adding to a delightful and beguiling vibe of being in Asia. We had the spa bath room. First floor, rear of the complex over looking the pool and gardens. It was a quiet weekend -in town and at the inn-so nothing to disturb us. Room was completely fit for purpose. Spacious, clean and cleverly refurnished and finished to add that tropical location vibe! I LOVED the palm cushions and jungle quilt! Comfy bed, crisp sheets. All windows open, a very small balcony and thank heavens for the fan! The bathroom was new and the spa bath- filled with cool water- was a good size and a nice touch. There’s a basic kitchenette with fridge, microwave and adequate crockery and utensils etc. There’s no obvious recycling and all products are single use. Staff were friendly and efficient. Lovely place and experience, that I’d recommend and will stay again.

Hotel suitable for business travel

I have visited hotels every 3 weeks for a few months now and this is definitely the best one yet for the size and price. We were in the family room with our son and were very happy with the toiletries provided and the cleanliness. The beds were very comfortable which is a must, as someone with a disability. The staff were pleasant and professional. Shower could've been a tad cleaner overall, but I'll certainly be back again soon. Thank you :)

The location of the Motel is excellent, the parking is convenient, the room facilities are complete, and the hygiene standards are superb (see the bottom of the bed and the bathroom). Even the direction of the handle of the water glass is uniformly pointed. In the Motel and five-star hotel apartments we have experienced Rare

Originally through work I was booked a studio room - when I checked in the lady at the front desk was lovely. When I entered my room it smelled strongly of cleaner but unfortunately the bathroom/shower area was still disappointing. There was a lot of mould and grime in the shower area and the grout of the tiles. I couldn't have showered there. When I went back to the front desk to explain, and enquire about another room, I was kindly upgraded to one of the apartments beside the Burger King and had a much more pleasing stay. The apartment was new, sleek, super clean and had beautiful finishings. I would definitely stay in the apartments again. It was near to lots of different eateries, conveniently close to the motorway and a great location.

Very good, just went to the hotel and said that there was almost a reservation, it was delayed for a long time, everything else was good, there is a gym, swimming pool, restaurant on the second floor, near the beach, but the bath is standing in the bathtub ... It feels strange
