Welcome to this our amazing one bedroom apartment on the Viaduct! You can't find a better location than this, and you will have all the city amenities within a short walk from the apartment. The apartment is 86 meters squared, and is located in a gated building complex so security is excellent. Plus, you will have free parking with the apartment in the on-site parking garage.

Guest Access:

Guests have access to the entire apartment and the garage for the free parking.



The Neighborhood:

Everything you need is within walking distance from the apartment! Here are some suggestions for things to see and do on your visit to Auckland:



The Viaduct - the best bars and restaurants in the city! The New Zealand Maritime Museum is here, as well as Silo Park where you can watch outdoor films for free in the evening. You can also catch ferries from here to the amazing islands in the Hauraki Gulf like Waiheke, Tiritiri Matangi, and Rangitoto, as well as go on a whale and dolphin safari.



Wynyard Quarter - just a short 5 minute walk around the harbour will lead you to the newly refurbished area, Wynyard Quarter. There, you will find a great selection of even more restaurants and bars, Marvel Grill definitely being a favourite of our's to check out! You will also find Auckland's famous fish market here where you can eat some of the freshest and most delicious seafood in the city.



Federal Street - next to the Sky Tower (you can't miss it!) There are a lot of really nice bards and restaurants and cafes in this street, as well as the Sky City Casion and of course the Sky Tower. Dine at the top of tower at restaurant with the best views in Auckland, and jump off the Sky Walk to get down.



Just up the road from the apartment (towards K Road) lies Aotea Square, Auckland's cultural centre. Surrounding the square you'll find the Town Hall, Aotea Centre, Event cinemas, and two theatres (The Civic and the Q). The square itself is a nice place to people watch and sip some coffee. An ice-rink is the main attraction here during winter, and this will be put up soon.



If you head in the opposite direction along Queen Street (up the hill), you'll eventually reach Karangahape Road (a.k.a 'K' Road), where you'll find Auckland's alternative night scene. Many great bars, live music, shisha cafes, and cheap takeaways are what K Road is known for.



If you head East you'll reach Albert Park, also just a 5 minute walk from the apartment. Albert Park is a lovely place where you can chill and read, and the Auckland art gallery is next door on Wellesley Street. If you keep walking up Wellesley Street, past Auckland University, and across Grafton Road, you will eventually find Auckland Domain which is the biggest park in Auckland and has the Auckland War Memorial Museum, as well as an amazing botanical garden.



If you want to explore further Auckland then you can take a walk towards the Viaduct from the apartment. There you will find Britomart station. (Bus and train)



Apart from these mini adventures, Queen Street (main street the city) is filled with shops, bars, cafes, restaurants, live music venues, and more! Make sure you explore High Street as well, which lies just parallel to Queen Street. That whole area is very nice to walk, relax, or dine out in, and tends to be a bit cheaper than Queen Street if you want to do some shopping.



Please note that a refundable security deposit (authorised and held by your card provider, not charged to us) is required as part of the booking process.



Getting Around:

There is the SkyBus to and from the Airport, or via taxi. Britomart bus and train station (10 minutes walking)/ Wynyard Wharf Ferry Terminal and Downtown Pier 4 (10 minutes walking). You can also use the Lime Scooters to get around the city, as well as Uber (or Zoomy – NZ’s version of Uber).
