After a roundtrip through New Zealand we booked several days at Ascot Parnell. This was our best decision ever! Our hosts Bart and Therese were terrific. Their aim is making you feel at home in which they succeeded very well. Our room was charming and comfortable. If they would run a hotel we would grade it SIX stars. Soft sheets,... more

We had a fantastic stay at the Ascot Parnell. First of all, Bart picked us up at the airport and brought us home in his very comfortable car.

Our first stay was for five nights. When, unexpectedly, my wife became ill for three days, Bart and Therese were eager to help and care for... more

After checking out reviews on Trip Advisor for B&Bs in Auckland, we contacted Ascot Parnell. Their web site, and e-mails from Bart & Therese, sealed the deal and we booked in for 3 nights: September 30, Oct 1 & 2.
