My partner and I recently stayed at Rydges Auckland. We booked via their website and got an extra 10 % off as I have signed up under their (free) priority guest program. We ended up in a Deluxe Harbour View Double Room (we were upgraded as they had overbooked) and the view was fantastic looking out over the Harbour Bridge.... more

We booked this hotel for our honeymoon and it was really a good choice, This is a newly refurbished hotel and has a very modern look, The bed is very comfortable and the room had LCD tv . The room we got has fantastic view one side to the sky tower and the other side to the harbour bridge. The... more

Thank you so much for your feedback. I was very pleased to see that you had a great stay. I was surprised to learn that one of my team was less than hospitable and I will follow this up as a priority. For your information the hotel is continuing on the path of transformation with 2 new restaurants, gym, lobby,...

My friend and I stayed at the Rydges in Auckland for a couple of nights in October 2008. The location was great - right in the middle of downtown. It was close to the Sky Tower, shopping, and many restaurants. While most things were within easy walking distance, you could also catch a bus nearby. The staff we dealt with... more

Booked for two nights here for a stopover stay to see the city. As others have commented, a great location close to the SkyCity tower and easy enough walk down to main streets / harbour area. The best thing about the place was the beds (which is a good thing!) Although we weren't in a big room (2 doubles didn't... more

Good points: - very central location (and perfect for the airport shuttle, which stops outside) - modern, comfortable room - good value: very reasonable cost. Small grumbles: - the hotel couldn't find my reservation on arrival, though it was ultimately straightened out. - the daily internet charge is reasonable, but on check-out a surcharge for high usage was added to... more

This hotel was great value for money! I can't say it was in the most scenic part of Auckland, but it was in the center, very close to the Skytower, and handy for most things. The room was very modern and well done. We didn't include the breakfast in the rate, and having seen it, were happy with that decision. more

Checked in to Rydges (booking on their web-site from England) after a long flight from San Francisco ,at 5 am. The checking in process was smooth and efficient with our bags being whisked up to our room immediately. The room was of a very high standard with a lovely view over the city. We didn't have breakfast in the hotel... more

Excelent location adjacent to Sky City casino and entertainment complex, and just a short walk to main shopping street and harbourside restaurants. We experienced seamless check-in and check-out, and readily granted late check-out to midday. Room was everything you'd expect from a 4* hotel - clean, well appointed. Overall we'd recommend this to anyone looking for a safe, comfortable hotel... more

Stayed at the Rydges for a weekend at the begining of May. Must say I researched hotels for a while before booking the Rydges and I had mixed feelings about this hotel based on previous reviews. Since I found a GREAT rate on wotif for $99NZ I put those feeling aside and went ahead and booked it. Seems like we... more
