Nestled only 8 minutes on foot from Windsor Reserve, the 4-star The Esplanade Hotel Auckland welcomes guests with a sun terrace and a golf course. This Auckland hotel lies in North Shore, known for its relaxed yet active lifestyle, complete with picturesque white sandy beaches, lively café scene, high-end boutique shopping, and beautiful parks and reserves, 3.5 km from such cultural sights as the Mission Bay Fountain.
The hotel is nearly a 10-minute drive from the Auckland War Memorial Museum and nearly a 15-minute drive from Bastion Point. Takarunga is located just 1 km away and the Viaduct Harbour is 3.6 km from the Esplanade Auckland. Guests will also appreciate the vicinity to Devonport Community Garden, located approximately a 5-minute ride away. The nearby entertainment attractions of Auckland include the vibrant SKYCITY Auckland Casino, which is 3.7 km away. You can catch the bus at Devonport Ferry Terminal bus stop, just around the corner from the Esplanade.
Some of the 15 air-conditioned rooms are equipped with individual climate control and an iron, as well as entertainment amenities such as a flat-screen television. Also, they feature marble flooring. Certain rooms look out onto the mountain.
The Devon On The Wharf is just near the Esplanade Auckland.
Review by hotel critic
I recently spent a night at the Esplanade, and it was certainly an experience worth sharing. The hotel beautifully combines old-world charm with a well-maintained, spacious room that feels cozy and inviting. The huge window overlooking the picturesque harbor added a lovely touch. One perk is the free Wi-Fi, perfect for a freelancer like me. Despite appearances, the room was warm and peaceful-ideal for some yoga sessions in the morning. I appreciated the large, comfortable bed and the excellent shower pressure in the well-updated bathroom. The location is excellent, with easy ferry access for family reunions, and I enjoyed dinner at Devon On the Wharf nearby. For the price, you get great value, especially for those looking for a charming getaway without breaking the bank. Just keep in mind it's a historic building, so some TLC is evident.
