Hotels near Glen Eden Railway Station, Auckland

We stayed one night at the motel as a result of the end of January flooding in Auckland which had caused our flight to Vancouver to be cancelled. Ian was very accommodating - when we checked in, we weren’t sure how many nights we would need as our flight had not been re-booked at that time, so he moved us to a room that was available for at least 3 nights. Our room (12) was spacious and clean and had everything we needed. The mall at New Lynn is within walking distance and has plenty of food options as well as shops. The motel provided great value for money in our opinion.

After arriving at the hotel, the front desk has completed all the formalities and proceeded, directly leading the door card to enter the room, the room is clean and comfortable. Cooking utensils are readily available, and pots and pans are easy to use. A five-minute walk from the surrounding area is a large supermarket and it is very convenient to purchase raw materials. The mattress is comfortable and you can fall asleep peacefully. The toilet and bath room are very convenient and hygienic. Like it, I have already stayed twice, next time it is my first choice! ! !

The hotel is quite new, the rooms are very large and have a kitchen. The service staff was very nice and helped me print the documents for free. There is a train station at the door. You can take the train to the center of Auckland. The ticket costs about three yuan. Free parking is available in the yard. Very good, you can still stay here in the future. The only little question I have is that this is a very common problem in New Zealand. The hotel room is very large, but the bed is very small. The European-style single bed is only about 0.8 meters wide. For such a big room, why not buy two larger ones? What about the single bed?

There were nine of us in our group that stayed at the hotel. The service at the hotel was great and the receptionist was accomodating towards our needs. The rooms were clean and sufficient, the beds were comfortable. Other than the busy main road, it was great to be so close to the motorway for easy access - there was no noise audible from the road so that was a plus.

The staff is very rigid. Check-in must be done at 2pm. If you go early, you have to pay extra. They won't give you the room even if it's available. The room is different from the pictures. The coffee machine in the room is broken. It has just been renovated but still has a strong smell of renovation. The food in the hotel restaurant is very salty. The side dishes are all the same. Very monotonous. I will not choose it again.

I found this hotel on *********** under the name of Albert Accommodation but it turned out to be named Bliss Accommodation. I chose to pay a bit more, NZ$106, for a Deluxe Queen room with a kitchenette. On arrival there is no reception but a person in the laundry hub pointed out a paper note on the Bliss Accommodation door giving a pen scrawled mobile phone number to phone. This resulted in a request to go back up the driveway to the adjoining cafe/bar. There I had to wait 10 minutes until someone arrived to photo my ID [driving licence] and take my money [Surcharge for using a credit card]. Back down the drive and using an entry card I was in. No lift and 3 flights of steps to my room. Into the room. The kitchenette was a kettle, crockery, cutlery, a tea towel, tea, coffee and sugar and a fridge. No microwave as seen on the photo and no milk, no dish wash liquid. The room ws clean though the whole hotel had an aroma of perfume/incense which I found mildly unpleasant. The bed was very comfortable and the linen very clean. the off switch to turn off the light from the bed was a very long stretch but saved walking back to the light switch at the entry door. I slept well that night. Good TV and air heat pump heater/AC which I did not have to use. Clean towels in the small bathroom, toilet paper incredibly thin. Nice shower cubicle but after initially setting the temperature there was a fluctuation from scalding hot to cold - surely a safety hazard. Next morning I needed to hand back the entry cards. Back to the Cafe/bar up the drive. I was told to go to the Indian pastry/sweet shop where I handed in the cards after a long wait on customers buying pastries. It was OK for 1 night at a reasonable price but I would not return.

The views from this hotel are stunning, even though it was raining and misty! The staff are very nice, jolly and helpful. Unfortunately the whole place was rather shabby and tired. Despite this our room was comfortable and spacious although being next to the bar and restaurant it was a little noisy. The food in the restaurant has a Spanish influence but it really just wasn't that great, which is a shame because there's nowhere else to go. A shame because it's a fabulous location and could have been a memorable stay.
