I stayed here recently for work. The hotel is perfectly adequate and well located, but the staff - on the night shift at least - were terrible! There seemed to be no more than three non English speaking staff running the hotel after about 10pm. Don't expect your calls to reception answered and note that there is NO room service... More

Rooms are ample and location is great however the house keeping and desk staff turned out to be quite average/ did bare minimum. We stayed for 3 x nights and house keeping standard/ general room cleanliness was quite poor. I also lost an item on a previous stay and made inquiries re. same with check in staff who only made...

We arrived at midnight into AKL and arrived in the rain to the hotel near 1am, where we were met by great staff who confirmed the details of our package and quickly checked us in and helped us get our (many!) bags to our rooms. We had an upgrade voucher but no joy in using it due to the hotel... More

Got a GrabOne voucher for Rydges Auckland so stayed there for a Saturday night in January. Hotel is right in city centre so location was perfect, the room seemed clean and staff were really nice. However, I woke up on the Sunday morning covered in red bumps over my legs, arms and belly. I thought it was an allergic reaction... More

I choose this hotel for its very good value paying 2 for 3 deal and for its location, which is very convenient for me to get to places. Arrived on a late flight and check in was smooth with a friendly reception, was given a room with a disabled toilet and the room was changed immediately upon request. The room... More

The location is great, if you want / need to be in the city. Big bed, clean room, valet parking, it's not a resort, it's a hotel in the centre of Auckland. Everything you need for a pretty decent price. More

I recently bought a grabone deal for my parents as recommended and i thought it may be a ice treat for my parents last night in Auckland. The grabone deal was for a Superior room in Rydges. The room was certainly not this, the only attractive thing about the room was the bed everything else was rather tired and dated.... More

I stayed for 4 nights at Rydges Auckland in January 2012. I got a good online deal, so the price was right. The hotel has recently undergone renovations and an extension and I have to assume that my room was in the older section. The fittings and finish of the room were of a good standard - LCD TV, fridge,... More
