Wairau Valley Otelleri

The location of the hotel is very convenient and there is a parking space available. Suitable for living with children. There are merchants from Taiwanese and Koreans on the side, and it is very convenient to travel. There are also some restaurants, like the famous out of the cage, etc. In short, the location is very good.

The hotel is in a good location, with Subway, Chinese restaurants nearby, and a 15-minute walk from a large supermarket and a Chinese supermarket The sanitation of the hotel is very good and the service is also very good. There is now a construction site next to the hotel, but fortunately, construction is only around 9 in the morning. The hotel has triple rooms, and you can also choose standard rooms with extra beds.

I have visited hotels every 3 weeks for a few months now and this is definitely the best one yet for the size and price. We were in the family room with our son and were very happy with the toiletries provided and the cleanliness. The beds were very comfortable which is a must, as someone with a disability. The staff were pleasant and professional. Shower could've been a tad cleaner overall, but I'll certainly be back again soon. Thank you :)

This is a homestay. The owner's room is very large. There is a swimming pool in the backyard. The water is also warm. You can also soak in the hot springs. The space in the house is large. There is a refrigerator. The owner prepared bread and milk jam. It is suitable for the whole family.

The room met my expectations and more, was very clean and inviting, couldn't fault anything (except the dishwasher wasn't working, well I couldn't figure out how to get it going anyway) but that was no biggie. The staff were great and the location was perfect, so close to the motorway and easy to navigate around Albany. I think this was the first time I've had a room with a king bed that wasn't just 2 single beds pushed together, very happy for that! Bathroom was spotless and parking downstairs was easy. Will definitely be back!

Location The Quest is located in the north shore suburb of Albany. We only chose it because we have relatives living in Long Bay, whom we had come to visit. However, if you’re coming as a tourist to see the sights of Auckland, then this may not be the ideal place to be. To get to the city, for example, we would take an Uber to Devonport, and from there, it’s a short (approx. 20 mins) ferry ride into the city, but all up, for Uber and ferry fares it could cost between $NZ40-50 and take an hour and a half depending on traffic and the waiting time for the ferry. There might be a bus option but we didn’t investigate that. When it came time to leave Auckland, the cost of an Uber to the airport, leaving Quest at 1.30pm on a weekday, was $NZ85. The receptionist told us that despite the out of the way location, the Quest is popular with business travellers and that did make sense, because the Westfield shopping centre is nearby, and there’s a virtual satellite suburb surrounding the Westfield, with dozens of other businesses, shops, cafes and restaurants. The other reason, I guess people would stay here, is if, like us, they are visiting relatives who live in one of the outer north shore suburbs like Torbay, Long Bay, Browns Bay etc, but if I came here purely as a tourist, I would choose to be in the city. Despite its small size, the traffic in Auckland could be pretty horrendous at times, which just adds to your taxi or Uber costs. There isn’t much in the near vicinity of the hotel, apart from a few little shops and restaurants. But the aforementioned Westfield can be easily reached by Uber, or even on foot, although it isn’t a particularly pleasant walk, alongside the highway and it takes about 20-25 minutes. Most of the time, when visiting Westfield, we choose to Uber there and back, and that generally costs a modest $NZ8 or $9 each way. Apartment A comfy little lounge-room was the main feature of the apartment, with a wooden dining table with steel legs, four solid wooden chairs also with steel legs, a small desk and chair with a strong desk light and enough power points to charge all your appliances. There were two comfy lounge chairs in rather dark, sombre colours of olive green and brown, and far too many cushions for such a small space, so they continuously had to be rotated around to make room to sit. The smart TV had local channels as well as YouTube, Netflix, Amazon Prime, pretty much everything you would need from a TV, including a fancy remote with a laser pointer. There was a little coffee table and the whole place was carpeted except for the bathroom and kitchenette, which was just as well, because despite it being mid summer, we found Auckland a cold place and on some days, temps got as low as 18 degrees, complete with wind and rain. Fortunately, the reverse cycle air con worked well, so we had it on heat at 27 degrees most of the time and that at least helped to keep the place warm. I don’t think that we ever used the cooling cycle.

We spent the christmas holiday with two other families in the penthouse (room 3.1). We were all extremely pleased with the facilities and services at this brand new hotel. The living room was spacious and bright, and all rooms were sparkling clean. The hotel staff were friendly and attentive. The refreshing and stunning view overlooking the mountain and creek was a massive gift to our trip. The kitchen was fully equipped and everything was brand new. There was a bar and several restaurants just around the corner, all within walking distance.The atrium garden on the ground floor was also a highlight you won't want to miss. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back again. Highly recommended!
