Top North Head Hotel Reviews

Adina Apartment Hotel Auckland Britomart

10/10 Excellent

"The Adina is a great hotel, excellent location for concerts or events at Spark Arena and great room sizes. Communication was great, the room was perfect for three friends and we were very happy with our stay."

Radisson RED Auckland

10/10 Excellent

"Location is great, though there was constructions happening nextdoor which closed off Lorne Street (October 2026). Avoidable if you don’t drive your car, which odds the best way to experience Auckland anyway. Suggest parking at the downtown carpark which is a 15min walk or a quick ride on the CRL - station is a five minute walk away. Room was incredibly tidy and clean. Didn’t really have to do too much with the staff. Great stay. Many food options on Lorne street."

Copthorne Hotel Auckland City

8/10 Good

"Good location for a good price. Convenient for spark arena. Clean and tidy, a bit dated and could do with an upgrade but otherwise nice."

The Grand by SkyCity

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was an absolute dream. It was a perfect combination of luxury and peace. I will absolutely be returning here. It was my birthday, and they were so sweet to me! Everything was clean, and we had a beautiful view, the food was delicious, we had a lovely time. Again, highly recommend."

M Social Hotel Auckland

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great place to stay. The view was wonderful. Staff was excellent!! Would definitely stay there again!!"

The Hotel Britomart

10/10 Excellent

"Incredible hotel. Will return when in Auckland."

Auckland Rose Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"Always stay here when attending spark arena as in good walking distance. But when returned from concert all the doors to get to the lift were locked so had to find stairs to be able to get back to our room! Should have a key swipe to get back in for the elevator. Not good if you struggle with stairs. You also now have to pay a safety deposit which in all my years staying here have never had to do in the past so another thing to look out for"

InterContinental Auckland by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Phenomenal staff. Room was great and the hotel is in a perfect location."

The Parnell Hotel & Conference Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay!"
