Their 'standard' rooms are EXTREMELY small....bearly two feet around a double bed. The bathroom just as small. They tried to give me a standard, even though I had booked a 'studio'....finally had to settle for a somewhat bigger room but not the studio. Location is good. Would not recommend this place to any but a budget traveler. more

My family recently stayed at the City Central Hotel for 3 nights and were blown away by the level of helpful and friendly service that we received. Auckland was the last stop on an eight week around the world trip and my daughter who lives in Auckland decided at short notice to get married whilst we were there! Given that... more

We stayed for one night, left our bags in the left luggage for two nights and then stayed another night. Had no complaints at all front desk staff were helpful. Location was good. more

The room we had was tiny and only just fit the double bed in, there wasn't any room to put our luggage, so this... more

It doesn't get much worse. On ascending to the 5th floor, we were confronted with narrow corridors and a smell reminiscent of a hospital ward. Hotel looked as though it had not been refurbed since the early 80s. Rooms were tiny, don't bring your cat as you couldn't swing it. Toilet dripped, bathroom door didn't shut properly.... ok, so those... more

I stayed at the City Central on three separate occasions between May and June 2006, and I had a fantastic stay each time. I found this hotel to be very clean and quiet, and the desk staff were extremely helpful. This hotel has a fantastic location in the middle of all the action of downtown and the port, is just... more

We stayed at the City Central twice in February 2006, on our way into and out of New Zealand and had no problems. We also suspect the 2005 reviewer has made a mistake. The standard rooms are good value, though perhaps on the higher floors not ideal for anyone sufferring from vertigo, the windows being at a dizzying height from... more
