Recently spent four nights at the Manukau Motor Lodge while in Auckland for business. Great location, walking distance to local mall for a bit of retail therapy and quick eating options. Staff were all very helpful and the housekeeping team are excellent. Was a pleasure to enter a room that was so clean. As others have said noise is minimal... More

Stayed here due to it's central location (surprisingly not many central Manukau options) and to have a spa unit. The price seemed a bit steep, but then again I choose to stay here knowing that. As others have mentioned, you can expect clean & tidy, helpful service, and quiet. Our room was fairly plain, but good amenities. One hiccup was... More

We just came by this hotel by chance. The rooms had just been refurbished and were very clean. The owners very friendly and helpful.A great place to stay if you have an early flight and only 10 mins to airport as we did at the end of our stay.Would stay again!

The room was clean and the couple who run the place are very friendly. It was probably a bit overpriced compared to similar places we stayed in NZ including Auckland but it's ok for a stopover if you have a flight the next day. Our main disappointment which was not the hotel's fault was that there were very few decent... More

We stayed just the one night after arriving in Auckland and everything was just fine. Clean, tidy and surprisingly quiet considering it is on a fairly busy road and just 300m or so from a Westfield shopping centre. If you order the cooked breakfast you better be hungry because it was enormous (and delicious). This was a lovely start to... More

I hadn't planned to stay at the Manukau Motor Lodge while travelling around NZ, but an unfourtunate bout of food poisoning forced me to stop my journey temporarily. My partner and I stopped at this hotel as an emergency only, and were thankfully accommodated by the staff. I arrived well before check-in time-without a booking, and the staff were gracious... More

We booked a Spa studio unit for 1 night after reading previous reviews and because of proximity to the airport. We were greeted by Neil on arrival and he was very friendly and helpful - even asking if we needed a local area map and showing us the best way to get to town and back across the busy road.... More

Very convenient motor lodge for anyone taking an early flight out of Auckland Airport. In line with the clean, orderly and down to earth motor lodges in New Zealand and Australia.

Stayed at Manukau Motor Lodge for approx 3 weeks while in Auckland on business. Cannot speak kindly or highly enough about the owners and their staff. Everyone is so lovely and friendly. The rooms are spacious, modern and clean. The housekeeping staff do a truly fantastic job! Location is central Manukau - close/walking distance to mall, restaurants, supermarkets, video store,...
