“Generous large rooms”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012

person found this review helpful

Looking back at other motels we've stayed in in NZ, this was one of the nicest - featuring a separate bedroom, good kitchen and dining area, and modern furniture. It's a short bus ride from central Auckland; there are shops and bars within walking distance and a supermarket slightly further.

The owners were very friendly and helpful, and coped with us turning up two hours before check-in time (just off the flight from London)!

“Excellent Motel - Cant be beaten !”

people found this review helpful

I have stayed at Acapulco motel almost annually for at least 13 years for business trips as well as personal vacations. I have found the place to be excellent value. The rooms are very well equipped and clean and the location is excellent being only a few minutes from the city centre with regular bus services close by.

The Management and staff are always extremely helpful.

I would recommend this motel to any traveller wishing for a great auckland city location. Acapulco is considered to be my Auckland city home !.

“Good value for money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 August 2008

I have stayed at the Acapulco several times when in Auckland for business. I have always found it to be clean and comfortable with friendly owners and staff. On occasion, there have been minor faults, eg. a blown light bulb, but these have been dealt with in a timely manner when I have pointed them out. I applaud the owners on the work that they are doing to refurbish and modernise the units.

I happily recommend the Acapulco to people as a quiet haven close to public transport.

“Very good accommodation choice.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 May 2008

Very clean motel with excellent facilities for the price. Location cannot be better, just off Ponsonby Rd with its bars and restaurants but also within walking distance to the CBD.
Helpful staff means we would not hesitate to stay again if we required a high level of accommodation, at the right price in the right, central, location.
