My favourite place to stay in Auckland

I always stay at Quest Ponsonby when I travel to Auckland. Great to have a room with a kitchen and laundry facilities. Comfy bed and couch. Has a supermarket around the corner. Great location close to town.

Reception area smells

Great location and friendly staff. Good rooms and generally pretty clean and tidy. Unfortunately the reception area has a very strong smell which is most unpleasant.

Such a nice apartment, and the staff were so helpful! And right in the action of Ponsonby. Also, Western Park across the street is one of the nicest city parks I’ve ever seen.

Great Place!

Excellent stay in the heart of Auckland! Walking distance to many restaurants, bars, cafes. Just a 15 minute drive to the beach and 20 minutes to Auckland airport! The staff was very accommodating and allowed us to store some of our luggage after checkout before we headed to the airport. Great place to stay!
