Barclay Suites is in a very convenient location, with many key attractions within easy walking distance. The Sky Tower is just a 5-minute walk away, while the InterCity bus terminal and ferry terminal are both about 8–10 minutes on foot. There are also plenty of great restaurants nearby. Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. The kitchenette included a microwave, oven, dishwasher, cooktop, and fridge, which made our stay very convenient. Having a washing machine in the bathroom was also a great bonus and easy to use. We stayed in room 1804 and had a lovely side view of the Sky Tower, which was especially beautiful at night. The room itself was spacious, with a separate bedroom and a living area that included two couches. The staff were friendly and accommodating throughout our stay. There’s also a charming little coffee shop right next to the hotel, perfect for a quick breakfast and coffee. Overall, we had a very enjoyable experience and would happily stay here again.

The views were beautiful..and the staff went out of their way to be friendly and helpful ( after our first accommodation canceled on us just as we got off the plane). The room was clean and tidy and big enough for the 3 of us could have 4 as they had couch that folded out to a double bed..( not so comfortable) nice to sit in but not so nice to sleep in. Other than that . Would highly recommend.

We stayed for over a week in December 2025. 2 bedroom deluxe apartment had 2 bathrooms which was very handy for a group. The Barclay suites team are reliable and friendly, everyone from reception to housekeeping. The amenities were top notch, quiet well appointed apartment with comfortable beds, fully equipped kitchen and daily housekeeping. Stable WiFi connection and the location is great for a trip to Auckland, close to Sky City and a short walk away from bus station, train station and ferry terminal. There's a supermarket just a block away and convenience shops that operate late. Highly recommend for a trip to Auckland.

Can’t fault this accommodation. Great location. The aircon unit was a bit noisy and the fan adjustment didn’t seem to work so luck I could close the bedroom door. Very clean and otherwise quiet.

I was torn between 2 or 3 hotels to book, and so glad I made the choice of Barclay Suites. From the moment I arrived the staff were so welcoming and accommodating. I was on the 19th floor and had such wonderful views of the Sky Tower and the Auckland Harbour Bridge. The suite was well laid out, clean and comfortable and had everything that I needed as a solo traveller. I caught the bus and then train from the airport to Waitemata, and this was a short walk to the hotel. The shops, Sky Tower, bus stops, cafes and restaurants were all within walking distance. |When I was in the rooms I could not hear anything from the other rooms on my floor, it was that quiet.|This hotel was a bit more expensive than the other two I was considering, but for what I got in the room, the reception and treatment I received from the staff, it was most definitely worth the money. |I must give a special mention to Liza, she was always so cheerful, helpful and was a large part of a very enjoyable experience.|If I ever get back to Auckland I would make sure that I stay at Barclay Suites.

We had a really nice stay at the hotel. A special mention to Sagar, he was extremely helpful, polite, and supportive throughout our stay. He went out of his way to assist us and made sure we were comfortable, which really made a difference. We would definitely recommend this hotel and would love to stay again. - Parvathy

This is an excellent place to stay in Auckland. We stayed here on our first and last nights in NZ. We could not have been more surprised at the level of facilities for the price. I wanted to move in! Tina and the rest of the staff were simply amazing. I am ashamed to say that I bombarded her with requests and know, as we retired from the hospitality industry ourselves, that makes me the guest from hell! 🤦🏻 Always polite, kind and going the extra mile without complaining! It was clean and comfortable. There are two lifts and they are not high speed 🤣 but that is really not a problem. The location is wonderful and as we were on upper floors both times, we had superb views of the city and the Sky Tower. What a fabulous start after nearly two days of travel. I would recommend this without hesitation.
