VR Takapuna

This hotel is ideal for seeing Auckland and the surrounding area without staying in the city centre, which is just a short ferry ride away. The ferries run every half hour except the weekends and the ferry terminal is a 5 minute walk from the hotel. All the staff are amazing here, from reception to cleaning to restaurant and bar, all are friendly and helpful. The room was clean and very comfortable with great facilities including washing machine and drier, which we needed on our travels! The restaurant/bar was excellent, the food delicious and the views outstanding. We will definitely stay here again.

Very nice hotel but you need a car to see anything. There is nothing in the immediate vicinity to do or see unless you like sailing. Nice views from the hotel restaurant and good food.

We travelled with a small baby and the hotel was very accommodating. Jessica at the reception was very helpful and always considerate of our needs. Overall the stay was wonderful, the only issue is getting to the city centre and back is tricky if you don't time yourself with the ferry schedule, alternatively it would be perfect if we rented a car.

Our stay met all expectations and was pleasant.

Washer/dryer was faulty but reception was able to change us to another room with a working washer/dryer (but t knob was faulty thus we could not adjust t setting) Breakfast spread was very very minimum (only got bread, cereal and fruits)
