DoubleTree by Hilton Auckland Karaka
Easy parking, nice surrounds. The staff were all helpful and friendly. The restaurant was quite expensive but the food was pretty nice. The rooms were fairly spacious, very clean and modern and cosy. Comfy beds. The pool was lovely, too many kids though (lol). Would recommend if you don't mind staying ...
