Quest Takapuna

Excellent central location with easy access around the North Shore and into the city. A new building with all facilities maintained in pristine condition. On line booking is very easy. We checked in extremely late (around 4am), and this process worked smoothly. We also booked a parking space under the building (not a critical requirement but convenient with limited street parking nearby). This was organised without any problem (the staff were very patient in handling my changes). While the hotel has no restaurant, there are a number of excellent restaurants within walking distance. Everything was good with our stay (3 nights), and I would recommend for business or holiday travel.

還沒到酒店就被路上的風景震撼了，感覺跟澳洲的大洋路有相似的地方。酒店就在薄餅巖的旁邊，入口處不明顯，導航顯示到了卻找不到。靠着海邊的小木屋乾淨舒適。我們在日落前趕到薄餅巖，應該屬於南島西海岸的精華，拍照後趕到酒店，剛好沒有錯過日落晚餐。 海浪聲雖然很大，房間的隔音效果不錯，睡得好香。

Fabulous place to stay! The hotel is new, quiet, and very clean. The hotel room comes incredibly well stocked with things like coffee, milk, dish soap, laundry detergent which is replenished every single day. The kitchenette was very well equipped with pots and pans and spatulas and lots of dishes and glassware. Having the cleaning service each day was a bonus. The beds are so comfortable and very clean and I didn't get any allergies from dust mites which I usually do in hotels. The location is perfect as it is close to the motor way entrance (yet still totally quiet) and right across the street from BHive with multiple restaurants and coffee shops and a small grocery store. I had no issues with parking as I was given a dedicated spot underground. Will definitely be back!

I was disappointed in my stay at this hotel. While it’s location is convenient to many things it’s nearly impossible to find parking nearby. There is a small amount of parking in the basement but not enough for even a small fraction of total guests. Finding street parking in this area is a nigh**are especially while local schools are in session. Our room was small but otherwise okay. Sadly the shower in our bathroom was very difficult to use without flooding the entire place. Some glass partitions or better fitting shower curtains were definitively needed. Our stay was also disrupted by ongoing construction noise from an adjacent building site. Not the hotel’s fault but annoying nonetheless. This facility clearly has a marketing deal with nearby Goodside. Goodside was hyped as "an exquisite collection of Auckland’s finest boutique food and beverage restaurants - one of Auckland’s more delectable dining destinations." So based on the hotel’s recommendation we braved the rain and went to check it out. It was neither delectable or even open in most cases. The best thing on offer was a Subway franchise. Some of the restaurants may have been open during the day but the place was dead in the evening. We were literally the only potential customers in the place. I don’t expect Goodside will survive much longer and I certainly wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. I also think it’s bad form that Quest endorsed it so favorably.

This is a great hotel, relatively new with clean modern rooms and great staff. Not the biggest Quest rooms but they are a suitable size and have everything you would expect. Located just behind Smales Farm it is a great location on the North Shore. Local restaurants are close and there are a range of options.

I selected this property as it was convenient to Milford and family in Auckland. Reception staff were very friendly, the room and amenities were excellent. Perfect location. If you are visiting people in North Shore hospital, it's right across the road. But if, like me, you just need to be close to Milford or Takapuna, it's a good central location.
