Best place to stay in Auckland !!!

Definitely the best place to stay in Auckland ! Amazing location 15 min away from the city centre (walking), and right to a beautiful and peaceful garden. Very nice lounge, big kitchen, quiet dorms, with a lot of space, single beds, everything is well organized and you feel like at home.

Nothing.

Best place to stay in Auckland!

Very comfortable hostel that felt like home. No bunkbeds, which was a welcome change. The house was beautiful with decorative features that made it feel special. Kitchen was very spacious. Bathrooms were kept very clean. Location is great too, with Ponsonby's iconic restaurants and cafes just a short walk away.

There was one time when I had to wait for a bathroom to become available but it wasn't too long of a wait.

Super point de chute pour visiter Auckland.

Chouettes maisons avec un grand bout de jardin agréable face à un joli parc. Cuisine vaste et bien équipée, salon confortable. Le dortoir de 4 est spacieux, pas de lit superposé mais des lits individuels. Le personnel est cool. Commerces proches, trajet à pied vers K street, le centre ou vers le parc du Domain simple et pas trop long.

Insgesamt eine wirklich zu empfehlende Backpacker-Lodge.

Die Lage ist sehr gut, in der Nähe gibt es alles, was man braucht – Lokale, gut sortierter Supermarkt, … Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und das Personal äußerst freundlich. Küche gut ausgestattet, alles vorhanden. Sehr gut haben uns die gemütliche Lounge und der Garten zum Relaxen gefallen.

Leider war es mit der Sauberkeit in der Küche durch andere Gäste nicht allzu toll bestellt. Oft wurde auch das Geschirr sehr lange schmutzig stehen gelassen – für andere Gäste eher zum Nachteil und lästig.

Pleasant and location is superb.

Absolutely clean and comfy bed and linen. Spacey room. Clean bathroom and common shared areas such as kitchen. Tenants are respectful and polite.

Mosquito! Building manager may need to supply mosquito repellent or some sort of mosquito control which can be plug in power plug.

Definitely has a nice feel to unlike many other hostels.

Big airy rooms not over crowded with beds. Great large shared facilities.

The wind blows the sesh windows so they bag loudly in the night. I fixed this by wedging cardboard in the gap

Home away from home in Auckland

War bereits zum dritten Mal hier. Es ist einfach toll, man fühlt sich wie zu Hause. Alles ist familiär und offen. Keine Bunkbeds und große Zimmer. Ponsonby ist eine klasse Lage und nur maximal 30-40 Gehminuten vom Zentrum bzw. Hafen. Kann es wirklich zu 100% und guten Gewissens empfehlen!

Brilliant Ponsonby Location, Comfy and Quiet

Stunning location, so many restaurants shops and bars walking distance. Nice quiet area. Good common areas. This is a backpackers but has very nice, good sized, ensuite rooms. Comfy bed, good shower and heating and light. Good security

Everything was great

Comfortable and safe stay at Verandahs

It’s my second stay; precious was six years ago, and Verandahs still holds its standards, having upgraded some systems (power switches, heating, ..). Each bathroom/toilet cubicle is very large (could do with shelves and more hooks though). My single room was large, with a desk and chair, and a long enough clothes rail and hangers. It is quieter than you’d think, and Ponsonby Park just below is a treasure! Easy checkin and checkout.

Parking is still on a first come first serve basis, and only serves 6 vehicles approx. I got lucky and didn’t move the car, walked to eat out. A great place for visitors on foot or bikes. A suggestion: a couple of wee shelves would be handy in bathrooms, as well as a couple more hooks on wall panels for towels and clothes/gowns.

Ruhiges sauberes Hostel

Bequeme Betten, ausreichend viele Badezimmer auf den Etagen. Ruhige Lage. Nach hinten raus liegt ein wunderschöner Park. Große Küche, die auch tagsüber mehrfach durch das Personal saubergemacht wurde. Super Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis.

Great stay! I highly appreciate it.

Great location, beautiful park and very comfortable rooms. Spacious and well-equipped kitchen, lot's of cozy common areas to relax/ socialise. Very friendly staff & hostel guests.

No too much privacy in the rooms as there's no bunk beds with curtains etc., but there's just a few beds per room and they are very comfortable, so it is not a problem. Some side lamps could be of use as well. Otherwise, everything is great.

Une des meilleures auberges que j’ai pu faire !

J’ai adoré le côté cosy de l’intérieur, la localisation est top, on est près d’un parc et avec vue sur la Sky tower (c’était parfait pour le nouvel an), c’est super propre, la cuisine est très bien équipée, le staff est super gentil et on se sent un peu « à la maison » dans cette auberge, je recommande ++

J’ai tout aimé :)

Schöne und entspannte Unterkunft!

Die Stimmung an sich war super entspannt und die Leute alle sehr freundlich und offen. Das Badezimmer war groß und man hatte viel Platz. In den Zimmern war genügend Platz.

Es gibt leider kein Schließfach für die Sachen, so dass alles recht offen im Zimmer rumliegt. Könnten auch ein paar mehr Steckdosen im Zimmer sein :)

Recommend

Immaculate property. Safe & well run. Great location for the city without being in the middle of the city as it is "parkside."

I was only there one night and didn't find anything I didn't like.

Overall good stay

Great room, facilities, nice and private

Cleanliness of the room needs some work. The room needed a hoover and desk needed a wipe as the desk was dirty and there was hair on the carpet

Everything was good to excellent, except for the mattresses.

Cleanliness was excellent. After hours check-in was easy and instructions were clear.

Mattresses were old and had significant dips in them where people had used as chairs. There was no chair in the bedroom. This led to a poor nights sleep.

Beautiful lodge in a charming location

We loved the lodging and the location. The lodge was very cozy and comfortable and had the best location beside a beautiful park. The Ponsonby area is also very charming and convenient to be in. The rooms were clean and the shared spaces had all the basic necessities. Even at busy times, we always had a space for meals in the shared kitchen.

We would have appreciated having body wash and shampoo in the bathrooms.

Great location, basic accomodation, beautiful house - at a great price

Great Location! Walking distance to downtown and one of the best restaurant areas in Aukland around the corner. A fantastic café / icecream shop/ Thai restaurant just 50 meters away with the best breakfasts in town. Basic rooms and dorms but really nice facilities with big kitchen and park view in a beautiful quirky old villa. The manager Campbell was so nice and kept a suitcase for us while we were travelling in a small camper.

Basic materials in the room - old carpet, single glas windows...Could be updated easily (but also the cost would be more, so we like it better this way)
