Heartland Hotel Auckland Airport
Stayed here two days for our honeymoon and everyone was amazing. They were kind enough to check us in early and the room was excellent. Dave the shuttle driver made us feel so welcome along with the rest of the staff. Pool and hottub were nice bonuses. Would stay here again!

Grand Millennium Auckland
Quite a nice room. Perhaps a little tight for two queen beds. But overall one of the nicer hotels during our stay in New Zealand.

The room was comfortable and pretty quiet, and the breakfast was excellent. Very convenient for an early departure but a bit pricey.
