Land of Rainbows and Joggers

We arrived in Auckland around 1PM - right on time. Getting though immigration was a breeze. You can definitely sense that there is a lot less people here on the road and everywhere we went. The customs was pretty strict and they reinforced the message about bringing food into the country (probably too many Asians trying to break the rules like in the US). We had a version of the New Zealand map on the phone and the GPS worked really well. We found the hotel in no time. At first driving on the...

Christmas in Auckland

We spent a lovely Christmas in Auckland with my parents. It was strange staying in a hotel but a welcome change. We stayed at the lovely Hyatt (what a breakfast) and the service and BEDS were fantastic after sleeping in sponges for so long! The city was pretty quiet while we were there so we just relaxed and enjoyed the amazing food. We ate in two restaurants on the harbour Euro and Kermadec Seafood (xmas). So it was Christmas dinner with a difference this year.

Just arrived!

Monday, March 7, 2005 Departure for NZ was fairly uneventful, except for almost missing our flight from LAX to AUCK. Neville got caught up in a typical United Airlines mess and had to run back and forth between Terminal 6 and Terminal 2 at LAX (not a short feat) to straighten things out. Meanwhile my blood pressure was skyrocketing because I was sure we would miss the flight. We were one of the last to board, but thankfully made it just in the nick of time. Although we were in the 'back of th...

Welcome to New Zealand - now what do I do?

After 36 straight hours of travel, it was more relief than nerves to touch down in Auckland. I felt very comfortable too, the airport is pristine and customs a breeze. They even have a kiosk with free tea and coffee for arrivals - why can't we do that? I'm becoming a new fan of brewed tea, it's so refreshing! I left Tampa without a reservation for my first night's stay, and decided in LA to go ahead and ease in to "Budget Travel" with the excuse that it was such a long trip on my own. I went ...

Auckland, first full day and ready to explore

Day Two - I was ready to start tackling more of my Auckland Must See list. After walking around the day before, I was comfortable with where I wanted to go and fairly sure how to get there. I grabbed brekky, aka breakfast, at a cafe by the hotel and headed to the harbor. One of the goals for this trip is to test out my "trekking" skills and decided to visit one of the volcanic islands just off of Auckland. I took the ferry to Rangitoto Island, which doubled as a harbor cruise, as I was able t...

90 Mile Beach

Early start of 5.30am as we collected Bek (Dan's good friend from Bedford) at the airport but were treated to breakfast at the Hyatt where her parents, George and Jenny, were staying. George had determined the route plan for their 3 week tour of NZ which started with a trip up to the north of the north island, to 90 mile beach. He had estimated a trip time of 2hrs 05...so off we all set. About 6 hrs later we arrived there, to enjoy the beach and a good sunset. A great catch-up and late evenin...

Historical Traveler Reviews of Hyatt Regency - Auckland

Excellent 5 day stay

from A TripAdvisor Member
Great flat in the newer part of hotel with loads of room.Superb swimming pool .Excellent position and very pleasant and helpfull staff,

Loved the Hyatt!

from A TripAdvisor Member
I spent 5 nights here in August and would book this hotel again in a heartbeat. The club rooms are wonderful. I was given one overlooking the harbor with views of all the various islands and bays. The bed was huge and very comfortable. I was asleep within minutes every night. By booking a club room, you are given special access to the Regency Club, with a complimentary breakfast buffet and a complimentary happy hour. The staff was wonderful and extremely helpful. The spa was amazing - definitely worth the money for a massage. The hotel is conveniently located just above Queens Street and is within walking distance of all the shops and ferry. The only bad part is its at the top of a hill so definitely plan on getting a good workout walking back!

Nice Hotel for the Price

from jatravel
We booked this hotel at the last minute through expedia. We got it for about $75. We had a small problem when we arrived because they didn't have the reservation yet (be sure to print your confirmation), but they let us use their business center to get it off of email. The room was clean, and the bathroom was very spacious and nice. The room was a bit small, but had a nice view of the harbor. The indoor pool was beautiful.

Great suite !

from gougoul
We stayed there for just one night.

We staying in a duplex penthouse suite in the new tower. These rooms are a steal, nice view, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, three balconies etc.

Simply the best deal i ever found in the world.

Service is excellent and extremly friendly. This is THE place to stay in Auckland.

Old and a little shabby

from A TripAdvisor Member
Stayed here in August, 2004. The receptionist looked perturbed when we requested a non-smoking room (indicated with our online reservation anyway!) Our room was very basic. The bathroom and carpeting were old and in need of renovation. The bartender was baffled by the concept of a Tom Collins. Otherwise, the hotel was fine.

Excellent Value

from A TripAdvisor Member
When I booked this hotel online for what worked out as £60 a night I wasn't expecting a huge amount when you consider you pay £40 for a room in a Travelodge here in the UK. However, I could not have been more pleased! The room and facilities available were excellent - nice big bed, bathrobe, slippers, lovely pool, spa and sauna. Even the restaurant was reasonably priced. Everything was very clean and staff were friendly. I felt completely spoilt and was so glad I stayed before facing 4 months of staying in hostels - a real treat! I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone.

Great rooms

from A TripAdvisor Member
If you stay at the Hyatt Auckland Hotel I would advise people to book a Residents room in the new tower block as,as a family the rooms are more like a suite with fantasic ,bathroom kitchen and tv/dvd/hifi in room.

Just great for bad days and too keep the childern happy. Also the Regencey breakfast room on the 14 floor has great veiws for sunrise and sunsets over Auckland. Anybody using the Beauty Treatment at the hotel book at least 2/3weeks ahead of travel as all booked up when we arrived and unable to get bookings as a resident of the hotel?.

Some rooms are remarkably substandard...

from A TripAdvisor Member
My wife and I stayed at this hotel for five days as part of a MBA study tour. We checked in as part of a MBA class group. As the only married couple on the tour, we expected to get at least one double bed. The first night we were there, all they had left were two single beds on the 4th floor of the old part of the hotel. The room was certainly far below the standards we would expect of a Hyatt - very small, cramped, and basic amenities. We asked for a queen bed room and were told we would have to pay $100 more for a Regency Suite Room. Well, we stayed in the dumpy room the first night and got upgraded the second through fifth night to...wait for it... the same 2 room Regency Suite for which we would have had to pay an additional $100 a night. It was worth the wait to get the 9th floor suite for free. I understand the new residence wing is quite nice. Just be forewarned about the standard rooms in the old section. If you're used to Sheraton, Hilton, Fairmont, etc., those rooms are quite a rude shock. After our first night, we were pleased with the hotel, including the really nice pool and the location at the heart of Auckland's CBD. We would probably not recommend this hotel for fear a friend or colleague would get stuck in one of the dumpier rooms.

Excellent Hotel

from DiamonR
Great hotel, too be expected from Hyatt. The service was wonderful and the price fantastic! One comment is that it's on top of a step hill, a short walk from the waterfront but worth the $7NZ cab fare back at the end of the evening.

Best, friendliest, and most consistent in Auckland

from Thorndon
I have stayed here nearly 100 times in the last 10 years. OK, so they get to know you and take an interest. But they do that for everyone.

This is a place where they care, and take an interest. Not the newest or biggest rooms in the older block (but immaculately maintained); the new wing is right up with the best. There is no better hotel in Auckland for service. I have sent many friends and overseas visitors here and they all report the same experience.
