Rendezvous Heritage Hotel Auckland is set in the former Farmers Department Store building at 35 Hobson Street in the Auckland CBD, rated 4.1 and a short walk from the Sky Tower, Viaduct Harbour and Queen Street. Guests single out the big rooms, the central location and the rooftop pool — one calls it a brilliant base for a summer visit.
Rooms and self-contained suites run across a Heritage wing and a Tower wing, with complimentary Wi-Fi, ensuite bathrooms, air conditioning and tea and coffee facilities throughout. Tower Wing apartments add kitchens and living and dining areas, some with balconies and harbour views — handy for families and long-stay travellers. Space is the usual trade-off in a CBD hotel, so an apartment this central, walkable to Queen Street's shops and cafes, makes a car unnecessary for most stays. Dedicated meeting and conference rooms handle everything from private meetings to large-scale conferences.
A characterful, well-situated base for exploring central Auckland on foot.
