Harbour View Cottage Boutique B&B — Hotel in Maungakiekie-Tāmaki

This is the first review we have ever done. My wife booked this place under her name, it was the second visit. I will do points but do yourself a favor - DO NOT STAY. Never got the promised 10% off for a second visit. They cancel most of the books online as they want to charge you double over the phone. Overcharged us and then wanted cash for a small dog sleeping outside. Also charges for you to park your car inside the property. Demands CASH so never mentioned on the phone. Charged over $300 per night for 2 people plus the cash and wanted more. 3 The place was dirty, they live right to the side and in front of you so are in your face the whole time. No peace or quiet. Never book online as they will cancel you and hard to get money back. No toilet paper, the washing machine was not working and it is not a bed and breakfast. You get a couple of tea bags and a very small milk in the fridge. Do yourself a BIG favor and go elsewhere. They are very rude. We will never stay there...

Everything you want from a 5-star hotel packed in one quaint self-contained colonial cottage. The concierge-style service is friendly but professional, the room service and meals are of gastronomic quality and the space comfortable, quiet, very private and well decorated. ||||The facilities and location were very important to us as we were visiting Auckland mixing business and pleasure. The cottage offers a working desk with charging station, fast internet connection and printing facilities. The B&B is only 15 minutes from the Airport and is also very close to Newmarket and Auckland CBD by train. ||||Above all, we certainly appreciated the flexibility and friendliness of the owners who welcomed us before normal check-in time with complimentary drinks and nibbles.||Highly...

What an amazing stay we had. I can't talk highly enough about the hosts, the incredible cute cottage and facilities or Onehunga itself.|The only criticism I would have is a small one and it is clearly stated in the info available at booking. The stairs to lift are probably too steep for any elderly person especially if night trips up and down are a thing. Otherwise 10/10. There's lots of interesting walks around the area, with trains and shopping only a short stroll. Handy to airport (take the #38 bus and save $$$) leave the car, walk and use public transport. Perfect location, lovely place to stay,...
