Top Hillcrest Hotel Reviews

ibis budget Auckland Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Easy travel to Auckland Airport via bus. Helpful staff. Good meal at the restaurant adjoining the hotel"

Adina Apartment Hotel Auckland Britomart

10/10 Excellent

"We had a two room apartment...it was BIG. The kitchen contained all the modern appliances you would expect and the living room was comfortable with two sofas. Both bedrooms had en-suite showers. It was a 10-ish minute walk to the Harbour and the area was quiet. The room was accessed via an open air external courtyard with walkways on all floors, which appeared strange - so if it rains you get wet. Not a problem though. There is a restaurant on the ground floor, but be aware while it serves breakfast everyday, it is only open for lunch and dinner on weekdays."

SkyCity Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Public or non guests found there way into hotel levels? 2 guys knocking on random doors to get in. Safety first. Had seen security through my stay but not this night. Main thing my family and other family’s were safe from these idiots roaming around. I notified your staff at the time and trusted sky hotel’s process. Thanks had a great time besides this issue."

Horizon by SkyCity

10/10 Excellent

"Room was more spacious than the photos, we booked a room with 2 queen/double beds. Everything about the room was great, well designed, spacious for two people adn super comfortable. I slept very well. We attended a event at the new convention centre taht it is connected to and it was raining outside luckily we could just walk less than a minute through the sky bridge. Perfect location for us"

JetPark Hotel Auckland Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Easy shuttle right outside the terminal and instructions were clear on the website. Prompt check in, ability to pre check in via email but we did at reception and the staff member provided exceptional service. We hadn’t booked the restaurant but they were able to accommodate us and the dinner was really good. Good black out curtains and quiet stay."
