I stayed at this hotel using BW reward points and had a large suite with a single bed in the main living area and a double bed in the bedroom. The bathroom had a large spa size tub and lot of space. Space was tight between the table and the kitchen counter but this could be remedied with some redecorating.... More

Beside good location and friendly staff, there's nothing else to praise about this motel. We stayed in the older part of the motel and the room is leaking! We have stay in many Best Western Hotel before but never been to one with this kind of standard. The bathroom is filthy and wost of all, the noise from the construction... More

We stayed here for 3 nights while our son had an operation at the Auckland Surgical Centre.The location is great...all you need is within a short walk or even shorter drive. We were in a one bedroom family unit. It was clean and well maintained. The room was well appointed and very comfortable. It was a treat to have 2... More

We stayed here as a group, and the accommodation was very good. Clean and quiet (even with builders on site). The cafe did fantastic breakfasts for a very good price, and they went beyond with their service for the young children we had with us. A very central location - easy to get to Sylvia Park, Newmarket and the city... More

I stayed here for 2 nights in May 2012. The room was large and clean and probably better than expected for the price. It comprised a double bed (very comfortable) a reasonable-sized robe, large recliner chair, table with two chairs, a small desk and a kitchenette. The bathroom was clean and had plenty of towels and a hair dryer, plus... More

We visited Auckland for a few days for a friend's 70th birthday and wanted to stay near his house. There are quite a few motels on Great South Road to choose from. After booking I was warned we would hear a lot of noise from the motorway and trains but it wasn't too bad. The rooms are a bit dated... More

Stayed two nights 12th & 13th August - staff very helpful. Bed comfortable and room clean. Located on bus route. Road noise was minimal and no real disturbance. Cons - walls on both sides not really sound proof... snorning from adjacent room kept me awake on the first night.

We spent three nights here, and it was very pleasant. The room was comfortable, the internet worked well, the people were very friendly. The coin laundry facilities are inexpensive and convenient. The kitchen was adequately equipped, and everything worked well. www.riderbymyside.com
