SKYCITY Grand Hotel
(90 Federal Street, Auckland)
- The
SKYCITY Grand Hotel
is my regular hotel in
Auckland
and has been for a number of years. Rooms are
spacious, service consistently good, good business facilities and recently
revamped dining choices in Japanese-style
MASU
and the contempory
The Grill by Sean Connelly
- the latter of which does a good line of
New Zealand
wines. Directly opposite
Sky Tower
is hugely central and the
Auckland CBD
couldn't be more accessible.
The Langham (83 Symonds Street, Grafton, Auckland 1010) - Probably one of the biggest names in the hotel industry, The Langham is firmly at the top end of Auckland accomodation. Service is always top quality and the hotel bar sports a good selection of New Zealand wines. Rooms are spacious and breakfast quite respectable.
Hotel DeBrett
(2 High Street, Auckland 1010)
- One of the best hotels kicking around
Auckland
,
Hotel DeBrett
is fully decked out in the Art Deco style and limited to 25
individually decorated rooms. A matter of minutes from the central Queen Street,
Hotel DeBrett
also boasts an award winning
restaurant for which reservations are absolutely essential. Breakfast selection
is pretty good quality with a selection of continental and cooked.
Auckland CBD
is easily accessible.
SKYCITY Hotel (Sky Tower, Cnr Victoria and Federal Streets, Auckland, New Zealand) - Part of the Sky Tower complex, SKYCITY Hotel couldn't be more central. Firmly more mid-range than my other recommendations on this page - the SKYCITY Hotel is no worse off for it with access to all the facilities of Sky Tower and the dining options of Auckland CBD the SKYCITY Hotel offers excellent value for money.
