Naumi Auckland Airport Hotel

It wasn't far from the places we needed to be & also was nice and close to town and shopping centres.

This just became my go-to hotel when transiting through Auckland airport. All the staff we encountered were super friendly and helpful. While the actual structure of the hotel is concrete block, it has been painted and decorated so it appears really modern. We loved all the extras, such as the lollies and popcorn in the lobby, the drinks in our mini bar, and even the toiletries were great! The hotel can be reached via the yellow bus, or as we did, by Uber (which worked out to be cheaper, and quicker, for us than the bus). While there is an in-house restaurant, we chose to eat at “Indian Express”, which is about 100m down the road. The gym has modern gear, with a few multi stations, an elliptical trainer, treadmills, and bikes. I would happily recommend this hotel!!!

The room was quite comfortable and clean and we had 2 double beds in there as we had 2 teenage children with us. Our flight was cancelled so it was an unexpected stay. We used the gym and that was great and minibar was included in price of the room so that was a welcome relief for an unexpected booking.

Rooms were great, had everything we needed as we are not fussy. Plus side was the heater provided as NZ is abit on the cold side considering where we are from. I liked how close it was to a number of places such as good shopping and food areas, airport, hospital (as we had a little emergency in the middle of the night and couldn't wait for a Dr to arrive to the hotel), safe and gated car parks, bus stop is right across the road and the little shopping area right next door to the hotel. Also, the yellow bus was a big plus for us getting to and from the airport and ungodly hours of the morning which was affordable and easy to get. Not forgetting the Reception (manager & shift) , maintenance and cleaning staff were amazing, friendly and welcoming. Only dined at the restaurant once for breakfast which the breakfast buffet had a variety of freshly cooked and cold options available and was pretty good to for the price. Other than that we dined out majority of the time.

The room was beautifully decorated and comfortable with a door opening up into a garden. There were complimentary room snacks. The facilities in the hotel were great including a gym, pool and restaurant. The restaurant food was excellent. Great location and great that the airport shuttle service goes through there. I liked the self-service front desk but that there was someone there to answer questions for me.
