North Harbour Stadium Hotels & Accommodation

Auckland isn’t the easiest city to get around, and public transport around the city centre can be a little slow. For this reason, many visitors prefer to stay in the central business district (CBD), where many of the main attractions of the city are within walking distance. Accommodation options in this area are broad, from cheap but clean backpacker hostels, to luxury hotels at SkyCity. Nightlife, restaurants, shops, and museums all abound in this area.

📍 Where To Stay

The Viaduct area of the city has been redeveloped to make it an upmarket waterfront location. With ocean views and great waterfront nightlife this is a great choice for travellers. Still only around 10 minutes walk from the CBD and many of the main attractions but offering a less bustling feel to the area. Options in this area tend to be priced higher.

If you want somewhere a little quieter and more picturesque, consider the Mount Eden region. With older more historical buildings and famous craters, this area has a quiet but trendy café and bar culture. A short drive from the centre of the city, with some public transport connections to the main areas too.

If travelling with kids or family, you can’t go wrong with the Mission Bay area. Situated on the east coast, you will find a sandy beach, parks, and a variety of restaurants and bars located on the waterfront. A popular area to stay in – make sure you book early.
