Since you're likeily to start (or end) your stay in Auckland, this one is an easy call. Like all great B&B owners, Neil and Mike treat their customers as close friends in for a visit. The accommodations are comfortable, but what sets this place apart is how unsparing the owners are in their hospitality. They are the consummate "people persons."... More

Neil and Mike made my family and I feel like home. We came to NZ for just a week, and Neil and Mike's Place was the perfect springboard for our trip. The first night we had great food and wine after and after relaxing in the backyard for a while, had a comfortable sleep in their awesomely colorful house. Neil... More

After a long business trip around the world, including in five star hotels and exotic places, we ended the trip in New Zealand at our favorite B&B with a home atmosphere, and this was one of the highlights of our trip and just the thing we needed to get us ready for the final leg home to Washington. I had... More

It was a real pleasure to have you stay with us for a second time and to get to meet the husbands too. We enjoyed your company and conversation immensely. I hope you manage a stopover stay with us after the baby is born later in the year. You will always be welcome in our home More

Great location, very close to all the downtown attractions. I liked the zoo very much. There home is very comfortable and the dinner was the best. The guys are very kind to answer all the questions we had and gave great touring advice. The two friends I traveled with and myself all found our stay perfect.

Wonderful stay; wonderful place. Arrived to a pre-arranged home cooked meal of bbq lamb, summer tomatoes, hors d'euvres and a host of other delicious specialties. Room was well appointed, bed comfortable, and the all around ambiance of the house was quite pleasant. The house is centrally located in Grey Lynn and close to all the sights and night life. We...
