Our Masters hockey team was terribly let down at the last minute by this Motor inn. Two days before national tournament they said we couldnt use the room we booked there for a week. We wanted to turn up before games for meetings for an hour before and an hour after games for five days. The owner saying that 16... More

Hi. We appreciate your feedback. But going by the facts your request for allowing 16 team members to use the Spa bath in the room was unreasonable as the room was only booked for a maximum of 4 guests.(As per your e mail). The room is not suitable to accommodate 16 guests for the use of the Spa or for... More

Looking for a place close to our business that foreign visitors without transport could stay this was the ideal choice I made on three occasions. Virtually across the road from Botany Town centre and on major bus routes, although 45 mins minimum to central city in a bus.Only 30 mins to the Auckland Airport by car. All my business collegaes...

We have stayed here twice now and found the units clean and tidy, also very spacious. Nice swimming pool. Good facilities in units, everything you need. This time we got upgraded to a two bedroom unit for the same price. Would highly recommend. Friendly service.

Ours was a last minute booking and we had little choice of accommodation. So we were very pleasantly surprised with the Academy at Botany. It's warm, with very comfortable beds and great pillows. The staff were very helpful and a paper was delivered to the door every morning. Academy at Botany gets a top rating from us.

I have stayed in the Academy several times over the last two years and the standard has been consistently good - clean, well stocked and friendly reception. This visit I stayed in a family room and found it comfortable and spacious, with a large kitchen and lounge well laid out and with a dishwasher and waste disposal unit. The cooking... More

Initially, we were quite disappointed that my boyfriend's company has booked a hotel out of Auckland Central for him. However, it's close to the airport and located just across Botany Town where there are many shops, eateries, and the bus stop is also there. It's very convenient. We stayed on a 1st floor room and had to carry our heavy... More

Great place to stay, convenient to shops at Botany Down mall. Take away restaurants and decent coffee close by. Good service, replacement items not replaced overnight and when requested, reception responded immediately. Breakfast service is basic, but for the same price you can get a cafe breakfast across the road.
