Abstract Hotel & Residences

Auckland Central|0.31km from Artspace Aotearoa
TLDR: no aircon, constant power cuts, paper thin walls.. Where do I start. First off there’s no aircon so the rooms are hot and uncomfortable. There are ducted low speed fans which don’t do much. But the biggest problem is the fact the rooms are on what I believe to be motion sensors or some kind of timers so ALL power turns off every 25 seconds, this is not an exaggeration. This includes the lights, jug, the fan - everything. I stubbed my toes in the dark because the lights turned off while I was walking around, and they wouldn’t turn back on. Showering in the dark due the lights constantly on and off. Good luck making a coffee, showering, watching TV or anything without that being interrupted by constant power cuts which drive you mad. I booked the small room. They look small in the photos but even smaller in person and I felt like I was suffocating, the rooms are tiny so heat up like crazy. The smallest hotel room I’ve ever seen. Also the walls are paper thin so I could hear my neighbours conversations word for word.. even with ear plugs. If there was air con and sound proof walls, I could have put up with the extremely small space. Terrible experience. Don’t even bother with this place. The Abstract had a lot of potential as they have decorated it very nicely but they have let themselves down. It is also in a dangerous area of Auckland central so you will want to make sure you are back in your room by dark, lots of drunk homeless people around. After my first night of zero sleep due to the heat, stuffiness and neighbours chatting, I complained and had my room kindly upgraded to a larger one, but the same issues remained of constant power cuts and no air con in that room too. At least it was a bit cooler due to being larger and an extra window, also had no neighbours.. The customer service was pretty good. There is no parking on site so you have to park in a carpark building across the road. The food in the restaurant was average but has a beautiful outdoor dining area which was the highlight.

City Lodge Accommodation
3.8/570 Reviews
Stayed here for 5 nights as part of my pre-tour accommodation. This hotel has lived up to its reputation. It offers good value for money. With its central location with a stone’s throw to the hustle and bustle of CBD it is a no-frills refuge for those who can’t afford or don’t want to spend big on a bed. Amenities are good. Kitchen is spacious. Only drawbacks are small rooms and lack of paper towel and hand wash in the kitchen. Bowls and cutlery are limited but I guess with this kind of money you pay you shouldn’t get too fussed. You get what you pay for after all. Staff are friendly. I checked out with no adverse reactions.

Grand Millennium Auckland
4.1/571 Reviews
I have booked for six days. I liked their environment, service, and room cleaning service. But I thought not like one fat man's communication. He has just not been as good as I thought four-star hotel manager. Unless It is not matter, other thoughts are the best for me.
Parkside Hotel & Apartments
4.3/5134 Reviews
My partner and I had a great second stay at the Park side Hotel. We stayed in the spacious penthouse which comes with an upstairs and has an amazing view over the city and sky tower! Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, we asked for dinner recommendations and got more than we asked for! Desmond the GM went out of his way to accommodate us, he even transferred our luggage to our next destination, such a legend! The hotel is situated in the middle of the city centre and loads of great restaurants on a minute or so walking distance. We liked the Delicious bagels next door at the kosher Delhi NZ. Thank you Desmond and the park side team! We’ll be back next time!
