Auckland is the largest city in New Zealand, and attracts many visitors every year, there are plenty of hotels in and around the city catering for every one - from backpackers on a tight budget, right through to people on a luxury holiday of a lifetime for whom money is no object, and the only thing of interest is quality.
An excellent choice and very good value hotel that couples a good location and reasonable facilities with low prices is the 3* Mercure Hotel Auckland, located right in the waterfront area close to many cafes and bars.
If you are looking for a longer stay in the city, and require more space than n a conventional hotel, the 4* Sebel Suites offer a compromise between hotel flexibility, and apartment style accommodation right in the heart of the city, and are ideal for families.
Of a higher standard, the 4* Rydges Hotel Auckland is a high tech modern hotel again in the waterfront area with great service, and a good fitness centre on site.
The 5* Hyatt Regency mixes good value with true luxury, and has a golf course nearby, but is overshadowed by the modern grandeur of the 5* Stamford Plaza Auckland hotel.
