Barclay Suites

I got the booking at a great discount when I booked a couple of days before arrival. It was spacious, had a kitchen with everything you need, washer/dryer combo with free laundry detergent, and had comfortable beds. The location was really good. There is construction work happening around the area, but easy enough to get around on foot. I'm not sure how it would be if you were driving though. I would stay here again if going back to Auckland.

I thought I'd treat myself to a suite with a view at the Barclay for my last night in New Zealand, and I am so glad that I did. The city view from the 21st floor was amazing, with a fully retractable french door with juliette balcony and wall-to-wall windows allowing me to take it all in unimpeded. The accommodation itself was very comfortable and spacious, with far more in the way of facilities than I had been expecting. With a well appointed kitchen, fridge / freezer and washing machine, I rather wished I'd been staying longer than just the one night. The 'mini bar' options went well beyond the usual tokenistic miniatures, so I was able to drink in the view whilst sampling an acceptable (and reasonably priced) local red - without traipsing down 21 floors to the shops. The staff were friendly and helpful, happily accommodating my luggage few hours the following day when (rather fortitously) I was afforded more time in the city by a delayed flight. This, coupled with a default check-out time of 11am, made for a pleasantly unhurried experience.

Very close to the Sky tower and most of the interesting places. It has almost everything that we need as a family. Lovely and helpful staff. It even allows us to check out late. Second, my 6yo son loves that the tv works. Lastly, lots of pillows and comfy bed.

A serviced apartment with generous room sizes. And having large sliding doors to open up the rooms to outdoor balconies and air is great! I had a spacious apartment with good light and views to the harbour. It was really comfortable to stay in it for a long period, i did for 3 months. I found the manager and reception staff to all be attentive and friendly, and the location is excellent for easy city living.

We took an apartment (301) with 2 rooms and 2 bathrooms since we are 2 couples travelling together. The hotel is perfectly located downtown. The building is new and everything was clean and shiny. The staff were very helpful, we were able to check-in very early, get the loan of an umbrella, leave our 8 pieces of luggage for a few hours. There is a very convenient place to have a very good breakfast right next door. We were so satisfied that as a matter of fact, we are returning in 2 weeks time.
