Kiwi International Hotel

Decent Budget Stay with a Few Setbacks The property is about a 25–30 minute drive from the airport via Uber, and we paid NZD 48 for the ride. Check-in was smooth ,we got our room key within 5 minutes. We booked for 2 nights and paid less than expected compared to other hotels in Auckland. The room was basic, as expected for the price. However, we had issues with the electricity ,the circuit would trip whenever we plugged in the heater provided by the hotel, making it difficult to stay warm. On our last night, the lights kept turning on and off, and we had to rely on our phone flashlights since we didn’t want to keep calling reception. On the bright side, the WiFi was strong enough to play PUBG without any problems. The location is also great , we enjoyed a morning walk to the Sky Tower and nearby parks. There are several restaurants within walking distance too. Overall, it’s okay for a short budget stay, but the electrical issues definitely need to be addressed.

Was as good as described. Nice and friendly staff Good carpark at the rear. Location is too close to centre. A lot of food options on the street.

I'm glad I stayed here for my first solo trip. At first I was nervous and didn't say anything, and the lady was a little scary, but by the end she was really kind. It might not be the best place for people who want to enjoy the location, but it was great for a sleep-in.
