The staff was outstanding. They went out of their was to retreive a lost camera case for us, including taking us back to the airport and finding the cab it was left in. They were always right on the money with dining suggestions and places to see and things to do. We have stayed many places in the US and Europe, and this was in our top 3. It's location was great and you could walk almost everywhere.

Arrived at 6am from an overseas flight and although there were two men at the front desk, neither offered to assist me with my luggage as I exited my taxi (the front of the hotel is all glass, so I was well in view). I found the room to be quite worn and felt the property had seen better days. I checked out within a few hours and re-booked another hotel.

We arrived at this hotel at approx 12.30 pm on a Saturday, having flown from Singapore. Woman on reception told us our rooms would not be ready for another 1 1/2 - 2 hours. She was not at all welcoming, in fact her manner was distinctly verging on the rude. We later learned she was the Manager. I would recommend she attends a customer service course fairly quickly. We went and had a snack lunch and waited to be told when our rooms were ready. We waited and waited until I went to the desk, only to find the Manager had gone off duty without telling us our rooms had been ready for a while. We were not impressed to say the least. Rooms were dingy, no safe.

Not only was the Rendezvous a spacious and clean room, but it also had a great workout room and a pool long enough to swim laps. Having never been to Auchland before, my friend and I had no idea where to stay. The agent at hotel.com booked us in an area that was close to downtown and all the things we wanted to see. Of all the hotels we stayed at in Fiji, and all of New Zealand, the Rendezvous was by FAR the very best! I was so impressed with the gentleman that booked all of our reservations at hotels.com, that I wrote down his name and will continue to use ONLY him for all future travel plans.

We stopped at the Rendezvous for a few days between leaving our cruise ship and heading home to the UK and it was a very pleasant surprise. The hotel is beautiful, clean and fresh. The rooms are a good size with a large window. Service, restaurant facilities and staff are excellent, as is the location. The biggest surprise was the price of the room bar which was the very nearly the same price as going to the local liquor store. All-in-all, a lovely hotel which we shall certainly use again.

Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 14, 2009

the initial checkin was on a Sunday, and apparently inexperienced staff were at the desk, which led to a slow process. We had paid for a "club level" room, but the club itself was under renovation. We did get free breakfast and a free drink each day, but no "quiet" area. The couple we traveled with did not get their reserved room on the club level, and had to change from their initially-assigned room because it did not have a safe and the air conditioning didn't work. I would call this a 3 star hotel, not the 41/2 star rating.

The Rendezvous Hotel Auckland has large, clean, & well-laid-out rooms. My only complaint is that they charge $2.50 for a small bucket of ice, & don't even have the bucket in your room

The staff were all very pleasant and helpful. The service was excellent. We especially enjoyed the daily continental breakfast and "happy hour". The 24-hour fitness room was also very convenient, with a variety of machines to choose from. It could use a few free weights, though. It was quite a distance to the City Center. Since we do not mind walking, the location was not an issue. We also discovered the "tunnel" that led to the hotel. That would be a good thing to tell your guests when they check in.

Reviewed by Claire of Half Moon Bay on Nov 18, 2008

We stayed one night and we stayed in a "club" room we had free drinks and appetizers and breakfast included in our room price. It was a great because we were coming back from a long journey of travel and we were leaving early the next morning so we were able to rest and get ready in comfort for our trip. The personnel in the club area was wonderful, actually everyone we dealt with was very helpful. Our room had a great view and was very comfortable and luxurious.

My sister and I recently stayed at the Rendezvous Hotel in Auckland. The service was excellent. After over 24 hours of traveling from Chicago to Auckland we arrived at the hotel 8 hours earlier than the check in time. The manager on duty at the time accommodated us and let us checked in early which was greatly appreciated. Everyone at the hotel was really friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and clean. We had a wonderful experience and highly recommend this hotel.

Recommended Trip type: All Others "Close to central Auckland (Sky City)"

Reviewed by S of London on Nov 13, 2008

An impressive hotel with ground to ceiling lobby, staff very attentive and helpful. Rooms very spacious with the suites (11, 12th floors) very large. My room offered lobby with bar (not free) and coffee (free) and guest bathroom (W/C and basin); opening to lounge area, 2 seat sofa with plasma TV and coffee table. Divider doors into bedroom 2 double beds facing another large plasma TV and doors to main bathroom. Bathroom contained bath, shower cubicle, two sinks, large vanity area and storage space. All finished to good clean standard, room service menu good with prompt service. If you take a suite you get access to the plaza club which offers separate breakfast and evening nibble and drink area. This room also gives a impressive view of the Sky Tower which at night is lit and impressive. A bar just off the main lobby is a nice place to relax as is the sun deck on the 4th floor. As it has a 'business person' feel the facilities during the week are hardly used meaning lots of space and peace. A short easy walk 15 - 20 minutes to the harbour, 10 minutes to restaurants, clubs and bars, 5 minutes to Sky Central means this hotel is in a good location without suffering from noise. Shuttle to and from the airport around 30-50 minutes at NZD$30-40 dollars

The complimentary continental breakfast and cocktail hour (5:30-7:30, open bar and appetizers) were spectacular! The hotel is near a lot of shopping and restaurants. It was all we had expected!

No question, I would stay at this hotel again. The location was beyond perfect. Just a short albeit hilly walk got us in better shape for the rest of our trip. Auckland is an awesome city that can best be seen from the Rendezvous hotel because of its easy access to everything. I would highly recommend it to everyone. Very comfortable too.

The Hotel was in a good location and the staff were eager to please. The facilities were excellent and very clean. The resturants have good quality food but not fantastic just good. The Rooms were outdated and my bed...one of the most important features in a Hotel was of two to three star quality. Furnishings were very bland. Hotel is central but a little further from the Viaduct than I would have liked. However the neighboorhood was clean and close to resturants and shopping. I reccomend the Hotel, but only if 3 star quality fits your needs.

We enjoyed staying at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The bathroom was very roomy and included a separate tub and shower. You couldn't hear noise from the neighboring room. The staff were pleasant and always willing to answer questions, provide suggestions. The hotel provided a business center for Internet needs. The Pacific restaurant in the hotel was not up to the hotel's standards. It appeared to be understaffed and the service was slow or non-existant.
