Central Location with great view of the Sky Tower

The view out our window of the Sky Tower was great - we had the perfect view of the fireworks celebrating Chinese New Year that were set off from the top of the Sky Tower - culminated a great trip to New Zealand!

Good downtown Auckland hotel

The two bedroom suite is ideal for business travelers who need to be in downtown Auckland. Everything worked except the clothes dryer. Housekeeping dried clother for me. One note: the Auckland CBD can be noisy at night, even in 20th floor rooms, especially after All Blacks games. If you want a quite place, get a hotel away from all the nightlife.

Was pleasantly surprised and definitely

Was pleasantly surprised and definitely very happy with our stay, the hotel was recommended by a friend who had stayed there with their grandchildren and they were very happy with their stay also. We didn't use room service or the Zest restaurant so can't really comment on them. It was great not to have to worry about parking as that was included in our package. The places we wanted to go to were within walking distance so we didn't need to use our car for two days. We highly recommend Citylife Auckland A Heritage Hotel if you want to stay in Auckland.

CityLife Auckland will certainly

CityLife Auckland will certainly from now on be our hotel of choice. The staff were professional and friendly whether it be during the day or early in the morning and the hotel facilities exceeded our expectations. The standard room we booked was value for money and we found everything to our satisfaction. The service deskman was also very nice to give us a discount on our valet parking when I enquired the previous day. Overall, a 10/10 hotel experience for my husband and myself. We found no cons.

Found the location of the hotel

Found the location of the hotel to be exceptional for us as everything we wanted to get to was within a very easy walk. Staff were very pleasant and welcoming, price for the room was great value however in house food was too expensive such as $12.00 for a bowl of porrridge, fortunately there was a huge amount of places to eat at budget prices all closes by. I would certainly stay there again.
