Auckland CBD is quite quiet but is close to lots of the city. Imagine was really well placed and was exactly what we were looking for, a clean, comfy, well-placed hotel.

Lovely stay to start our vacation in New Zealand!
👍 Like my review! We had a wonderful 4 night stay at Imagine Beach Road Hotel in Downtown Auckland Central Business District as our 1st city in New Zealand to celebrate New Year 2025. After an adjacent sidewalk luggage drop off, we were checked in by Ruby in a roomy lobby. The elevators were quick and easy using our key card allowing access only to our floor. Our room was overall clean with a comfortable bed and pillows soaking in tons of sunlight with a modern bathroom and several amenities (e.g. toiletries, lock safe with keypad, plates, bowls, utensils, mugs, glassware, iron, hair dryer, shelf space). We wish there was more bathroom space for our toiletries so we had to be creative around the sink. Bring your power adapter if traveling internationally! Although we didn't watch any local television, we had no issues connecting to their fast WiFi and screencast onto the television our favorite videos. Even with no breakfast and microwave, we started each day with instant coffee or tea using their electric kettle before walking to a nearby eatery, grocery, or shopping district. It was also easy to order a rideshare to avoid parking a vehicle and paying for high parking fees nearby. There is also a paid laundry facility next door or you can get it done by the hotel. The staff and manager were also helpful and consistently took our feedback issues with kindness and understanding. Overall, we would love to stay here again and would recommend it to our friends and family.

Room good, but thats all
The stay was good. Was ignored on check-in for almost 5 minutes while the front desk agent talked to maintenance men. Still waitimg on my $150 room deposit to return to my account. Emailed the front office manager over 24 hours ago for them to email westpac to release the bond, sent a follow-up email today, still no response

A very pleasant surprise and will definitely be back. I frequently travel to the CBD for work and have stayed in various hotels, and Imagine is a hidden gem. I stayed in the Exec. Studio and so on the corner which is nice and means quiet. Room is very nicely appointed, comfortable bed, and nice bathroom. A good working stay and would be good for a few days in the city as super close to everything. Nice and new as well so that's a bonus.
