Rydges was an excellent location. Spacious room and good condition. Staff was very helpful. Coffee and tea supplies plus a refrigerator were a big convenience. No ice machine available -- had to get from room service. Didn't use the restaurant because seemed a little pricey.

For a great meal at a low cost try one of the food courts serving thai, chinese and japanese cuisine. Meals are made fresh and they give you plenty!

Start and finish point for our NZ trip
Excellent service from reception staff who were always very helpful. Clean, bright, quiet and comfortable rooms with great views Unlimited, free wifi for those important e-mails to home. Addition of a spa/ gym would have made the hotel perfect in every way. Great location near Sky Tower and a short walk to the waterfront. Queen Street, the main shopping area also close by. Excellent value for money. We made a lot of comparisons over the three weeks and Rydges stood out - but only when booked via e-bookers whose rates were better than from the hotel itself! We only ate in once, on our last day, which was probably our biggest mistake as the food was first class and also excellent VFM. I can recommend the tapas for lunch and note that the portions are huge.

A GREAT PLACE
My stay at the hotel was great. The room was a great value for the money. I had a large bed, desk, and a small sofa, in addition to a good sized bathroom. The hotel was free wireless which seems to be rare in Auckland. The only downside was that you would have to log again after four hours, but it was not that big of a deal. The hotel is walking distance from the wharf area and Queen Street. The Sky Tower is up the street. I would stay there again if I visited Auckland again.

Great trip down under
This hotel is located within a block of the Sky Tower and is in the middle of downtown Auckland. It has recently been updated to a contemporary look. It has a soothing color palette. The bed was very comfortable. We used room service for dinner and it was both prompt and delicious for a reasonable price. The staff took good care of us.

Great Hotel in Auckland
Just a few blocks from the Airport Express bus which you get right outside the terminal, this hotel had all I needed for my stay as a single woman. Comfortable, clean and I felt very safe and well taken care off in every aspect. I got a late checkout and they took care of my bags until I was ready to leave by the airport bus, right on Queen Street. Couldn't have been better!

Airport Express bus to and from downtown.... $16 and close to all hotels and the harbour. Get it right outside the terminals and you get off at Queen Street within a block or two of most hotels. Quick and cheap compared to taxis!
