About this property
Sweeping Views - A Two-Bedroom Sanctuary
A spacious 103sqm two-bedroom interconnected suite in a prestigious Auckland CBD building — sweeping city and water views from an expansive private balcony, king and queen beds each with their own ensuite bathroom, pool, spa, sauna and gym, and secure undercover parking. Guest Favourite, perfectly scored for location. Fully equipped kitchen, in-unit laundry, dedicated workspace. Queen Street, Britomart, and the Viaduct all within comfortable walking distance.
At 103 square metres, this is one of the more generously proportioned short-stay apartments available in the Auckland CBD — and the expansive private balcony adds even further to a sense of space that consistently surprises guests accustomed to the more compact footprints of typical city apartments. The sweeping city and water views from the balcony are the kind of outlook that makes a morning coffee feel like an occasion, and an evening in feel like the right call. Guests consistently highlight the views, the quiet, the comfort, and the sleep quality — a combination that speaks to a suite that genuinely delivers on its setting.
The configuration is two fully self-contained rooms interconnected through a shared internal entrance — each with its own king or queen bed, its own ensuite bathroom, and its own private space, joined together to form a coherent two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment. The first bedroom has a king bed with premium hotel-quality linen and a well-appointed private ensuite. The second bedroom has a queen bed, equally well presented with quality linen and its own private ensuite bathroom. Both rooms open onto the shared open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, and through it onto the expansive balcony.
The kitchen is fully equipped for proper self-catering — stovetop, microwave, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, and all the cooking essentials for a group of four. The open-plan lounge is comfortably furnished with a Smart TV and high-speed WiFi, and a dedicated workspace makes the suite equally practical for extended business stays. In-unit washer and dryer add self-sufficiency for longer visits. Air conditioning ensures year-round comfort throughout.
The building`s shared facilities are exceptional: a heated pool, spa, sauna, and fully equipped gym available exclusively to residents and their guests. Secure undercover car parking is included — a meaningful practical inclusion for a central CBD address where parking is otherwise either unavailable or expensive. Guests specifically call out the pool, the parking, and the quiet as highlights, which together with the views and the location make this a well-rounded and genuinely strong package.
The building sits at one of the most central addresses in Auckland`s CBD — positioned on Waterloo Quadrant at the upper end of the city, close to Albert Park, the Auckland Art Gallery, and the University of Auckland campus, while being equally close to Queen Street, Britomart, and the wider waterfront precinct. The building is a well-established prestige residential address with a quality of shared facilities that matches its position.
The heated pool, spa, sauna, and gym are available exclusively to residents and their guests — not shared with the public — and the standard of maintenance and presentation throughout the building`s common areas reflects the quality of the accommodation above. Please note this apartment is a privately managed short stay within the building; check-in is via key safe rather than through any building reception or front desk.
The entire suite is yours — both bedrooms with private ensuites, the kitchen, open-plan living and dining area, dedicated workspace, expansive balcony with sweeping city and water views, secure undercover car park, and full access to the building`s heated pool, spa, sauna, and gym.
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Self check-in via key safe — straightforward and available at any hour. Full instructions and codes will be sent the day before your arrival. Early check-in can often be accommodated subject to availability — please enquire at booking.
Please note check-in is directly with us via key safe rather than through any building front desk or reception.
While we will leave you in peace to enjoy your time in Auckland, we are available 24 hours a day for an emergency.
For those non-urgent like-to-haves, just give us a call or a quick message and we will do everything we can to make this your most memorable trip to Auckland yet.
The building`s upper CBD position places it at one of the most walkable and connected addresses in the city. Albert Park`s beautiful Victorian gardens and the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki — New Zealand`s largest gallery — are a short walk. Queen Street`s shopping, dining, and cafés are equally close, running downhill from here to the waterfront. Aotea Square and the Civic Theatre anchor Auckland`s arts and events precinct a short walk away.
The Viaduct Harbour`s celebrated waterfront restaurant and bar strip, Commercial Bay`s flagship retail and dining complex, and Britomart`s cobblestoned laneways are all within comfortable walking distance — around fifteen minutes on foot with the harbour as a reward at the end. Federal Street`s acclaimed fine-dining corridor is close, as is Karangahape Road`s creative dining and bar scene uphill. Britomart Transport Centre connects the full Auckland train network, and the Auckland Ferry Terminal is nearby for Waiheke Island and Hauraki Gulf services. The Sky Tower and SkyCity complex are a short walk.
Auckland is easily explored on foot from this central address — the walkable area guest highlight reflects a genuinely exceptional position. Britomart Transport Centre is a comfortable walk with full train network connections. The Inner Link and Outer Link buses connect the central suburbs frequently. Uber and taxis are available throughout the CBD at all hours. Secure undercover parking is included for guests arriving by car. Auckland Airport is approximately 30 to 40 minutes by car.
A complimentary starter pack is provided on arrival — a small selection of tea, coffee, milk, and bathroom essentials to get you settled comfortably from the moment you arrive. Supermarkets and convenience stores are nearby for any additional supplies you need during your stay.
Weekly and monthly discount rates are available and apply automatically to longer stays.
A private airport transfer can be arranged at additional cost — please get in touch at least 48 hours before your arrival and we will organise it for you.
To ensure a smooth arrival, we ask all guests to complete a short online pre-check-in form and upload a valid government-issued photo ID before arriving — this takes just a couple of minutes.
This is a non-smoking, no-vaping property throughout — including the balcony and all common areas. No parties or events. Quiet hours from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM. Check-in is from 3:00 PM and checkout is by 10:00 AM.
This suite comprises two interconnected rooms, each fully self-contained with its own bathroom, joined through a shared internal entrance to form the two-bedroom two-bathroom configuration. The layout works particularly well for two couples who want genuine privacy within a shared stay, or a family who appreciate having two separate sleeping spaces. The building also operates hotel accommodation — this suite is a privately managed short stay; please follow your check-in instructions rather than approaching any building reception We kindly ask all guests to help us maintain the peaceful, high-standard environment of this home by following a few simple rules:

Check in available after 3pm through lock box key collection. Lock boxes are located a short distance away, full details will be sent prior to arrival. We advise collecting the keys on your way to the apartment, if coming to the city via taxi or UBER, ask the taxi to wait a second while you collect the key. The walk to the apartment from the lock box is not far, but no one wants to walk in the city with suitcases!
These measures ensure that every guest enjoys a serene, premium experience — thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
