This has become my regular Hotel during my bi-annual trip to Auckland. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed. I love the location and the dining options, which are close to Britomart. My only minor complaint is that I request a room overlooking Beach Rd however I am always directed to the back of the Hotel overlooking ugly buildings. But overall this is a good Hotel in a prime location.

The room itself was beautiful and very tidy. Our air conditioning wasn’t working at all and kept randomly turning on and off and letting out freezing cold air which wasn’t ideal. The night staff were very friendly and kind but the morning ones didn’t even greet us at all which so the service was pretty poor in my opinion.

I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be very convenient due to its proximity to the CBD. It’s just a short walk to cafes, restaurants, and a supermarket, which made exploring the area super easy. The hotel is also located near a parking lot, which was handy, although it’s worth noting that the parking isn’t free. Overall, the location is excellent if you're looking for convenience, but keep in mind the extra cost for parking.

We have been staying at Imagine Beach Road on and off for a few years now. The staff are courteous and go out of their way to accommodate us. The hotel is very clean and convenient. We walk into the CBD, Britomart for shopping and dining. The Viaduct is within easy walking distance. The hotel has 14 floors. We have stayed on the 13th and 14th and they are quiet. Parking is offsite and if you have a SUV (high) vehicle like ours, a Toyota Prado Land cruiser or similar, it is too high to fit into their allocated parking. We have to park in the Wilson Carpark approximately 1 minute walk from the hotel's front door at a cost of $45 per day. This is not a problem and very secure. Never had an issue. The hotel is inexpensive by comparison to others nearby, so we don't mind paying for the Wilson Carpark. We would recommend this hotel without hesitation.

On our travels to Auckland for a concert held near by we looked forward to our stay at Imagine Beach Road for how close it was to the Spark Arena (actually cancelled a booking at another Hotel to be closer). We were disappointed that reception staff were not overly warm and inviting, one in particular that manned the front desk majority of the time. We were also disappointed that there was no toaster or microwave in the room as this would have made having breakfast in more cost efficient and convenient, however having said that I should have checked out the amenities before booking. The other issue we had was the heat pump in our room was only blowing cold air, would have been great if it was summer but instead made it quite chilly, we did notify cleaning staff as they were in the hallway when we tried several times to suss it out, they also attempted but could not work it, on a plus they did bring in an extra oil heater. Bed was conmfortable and bathroom was nice
