Pullman Auckland Airport
Wonderful stay! We were initially a little concerned about the proximity to the airport but we’re pleased to notice we could not hear a thing from inside our room. The hotel is beautiful appointed and we enjoyed using the gym too!

ibis budget Auckland Airport
Very nice and clean but small. Worked well for us! We weren't allowed to use the exit stairways...only for emergencies (was told because of liability and safety concerns)
