Avani Metropolis Auckland Residences
Self-catering suites facing Albert Park in the CBD
About this hotel
The apartments here are built for longer stays: one- and two-bedroom suites come with an open-plan living and dining area and a fully equipped kitchen, set across from Albert Park in the middle of Auckland's main shopping district. The SkyCity Auckland Convention Centre sits 400 metres away, making this a practical pick for a conference trip that still wants a real kitchen at the end of the day, and the Auckland Art Gallery is just as close. An indoor pool and fitness centre cover the downtime, and the surrounding streets carry a dense run of restaurants, cafés and bars. Couples booking here consistently rate the location among the highest in the CBD.
- Self-catering suites
- Near Convention Centre
- Faces Albert Park
- Indoor pool
Our take
This suits conference travellers and families who want a self-catering apartment within a few minutes of the Convention Centre and the CBD's main shopping streets. The Albert Park outlook and the size of the suites make it a comfortable choice for stays longer than a couple of nights. Travellers wanting a full-service hotel restaurant and daily housekeeping as standard should book a traditional hotel instead.
- Book the two-bedroom suite for a small family or two couples travelling together, the layout splits cleanly
- Use the 400-metre walk to the Convention Centre if attending an event there, no shuttle is needed
- Pick up groceries nearby for the in-room kitchen rather than eating out every meal
Why we love it
- Suites facing Albert Park
- 400 metres from the SkyCity Convention Centre
- Full kitchens in every apartment
- An indoor pool and fitness centre
Why guests love itAvani Metropolis Auckland Residences sits opposite Albert Park, 400 metres from the SkyCity Auckland Convention Centre, which makes it easy to pair a conference with family time in the city. The self-catering suites have kitchens, so meals stay simple after a day out, and the indoor pool and fitness centre cover the evenings. With a 9.0 score from 2,850 reviews, I would recommend it to families who want apartment space in the CBD with a park across the road.
