A great, clean motel. Spacious rooms including all appliances. Away from the busy streets. Good breakfast in the adjoined restaurant with friendly staff. Quite a few eateries down the road. But nothing much to walk around and see, and mind you the city sleeps early.

I stayed at this hotel using BW reward points and had a large suite with a single bed in the main living area and a double bed in the bedroom. The bathroom had a large spa size tub and lot of space. Space was tight between the table and the kitchen counter but this could be remedied with some redecorating.... More

We stayed here as a group, and the accommodation was very good. Clean and quiet (even with builders on site). The cafe did fantastic breakfasts for a very good price, and they went beyond with their service for the young children we had with us. A very central location - easy to get to Sylvia Park, Newmarket and the city... More

I stayed here for 2 nights in May 2012. The room was large and clean and probably better than expected for the price. It comprised a double bed (very comfortable) a reasonable-sized robe, large recliner chair, table with two chairs, a small desk and a kitchenette. The bathroom was clean and had plenty of towels and a hair dryer, plus... More

We visited Auckland for a few days for a friend's 70th birthday and wanted to stay near his house. There are quite a few motels on Great South Road to choose from.
