LabMom57 Posted August 26, 2023 #1 Share Posted August 26, 2023 We will be disembarking in mid February in Auckland from our cruise and plan to stay 5 days. What hotel would you recommend for easy access to local restaurants and the ferries? Thanks! Ellen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugalugsnz Posted August 27, 2023 #2 Share Posted August 27, 2023 (edited) It depends on your budget really. Anywhere on lower Queen Street or thereabouts would be handy to Viaduct and Commercial Bay area restaurants and ferries. Movenpick is very nice, the rooms are quite small but modern and clean, and some rooms and the restaurant have great views of the harbour. If on more of a budget, the Quest on Queen serviced apartments are very good value in a great location. I’ve stayed at both and recommend. I’ve also stayed at Fable Queen Street (luxury!) and City Life Queen Street which is further up the hill (mid-range).

sleepingcat Posted August 27, 2023 #3 Share Posted August 27, 2023 downtown Auckland is very walkable. We stayed pre cruise and post land tour, so I chose a serviced apartment with a washing machine , and I quite like making my own breakfast. I think it was on Albert street, we could see the sky tower from the balcony. and it was walking distance from the cruise ship terminal. you mentioned the ferries, yes absolutely you want to get out on the water in Auckland harbour, its one of the best in the world. We were lucky enough to be taken sailing by friends who live there, was one of the high points of a trip with many. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
