Top Papatoetoe Hotel Reviews

Four Points by Sheraton Auckland

10/10 Excellent

"Hôtel très propre, chambre spacieuse. Excellent déjeuner"

Radisson RED Auckland

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel. The room was a bit small but well organized. Space is often an issue in city hotels. We enjoyed the amenities, the happy hour and the coffee maker in the room. Staff was very pleasant. Location was very central with a huge variety of Asian cuisine. Our stay here was the last 2 days of our 22 day trip and we were happy to lay low and enjoy the quiet ambience. Plus we visited the cultural museum and art museum. . The cultural museum would be of interest to people heavily invested in New Zealand history, and displayed the pride of New Zealanders contributions to world politics ie: . The world war displays were well done. The majority of the art museum , which was literally across the street and free entry, was far too abstract for me to appreciate. By design, it seemed it would be best enjoyed by those who would understand the materials and cues of the local culture. Would’ve been a pleasant and easy 20-30 minute walk to the harbor if we chose to do go that direction. Loved the hotel ."
