About this property
Level 25 1 Bed with Marble Lined Bath City Views
A beautifully appointed one-bedroom apartment on Level 25 of the iconic Metropolis building — king bed, marble-lined bathroom with both a bathtub and separate shower, floor-to-ceiling windows, private balcony with sweeping city, harbour, and Albert Park views, and a secure car park. Full access to the building`s 22-metre heated indoor pool, spa, and gym. Perfectly scored for location. Queen Street, Albert Park, and Britomart all minutes on foot. Key safe access.
Twenty-five floors above Auckland, in one of the city`s most recognisable buildings, this one-bedroom apartment delivers a combination of features that is genuinely difficult to match in the Auckland CBD short-stay market: a marble-lined bathroom with both a deep soaking bathtub and a separate shower, floor-to-ceiling windows framing sweeping views across the city skyline, the harbour, and Albert Park, and a secure car park in a building where the 22-metre heated indoor pool is available exclusively to residents and their guests. Guests consistently score the location a perfect five and the view is precisely why.
The king bed is dressed in premium bedding in a proper separate bedroom that makes the most of the floor-to-ceiling windows — the city and harbour outlook is present from the bedroom as much as from the living area, which gives the whole apartment an elevated quality that carries through from the moment you wake up. The open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area is bright, well furnished, and comfortable, with air conditioning, a Smart TV, unlimited WiFi, and a dedicated workspace for guests combining work with their stay.
The bathroom is the apartment`s most distinctive feature and the one that guests most often mention. Marble-lined throughout, with a deep soaking bathtub and a separate walk-in shower, it is a bathroom that genuinely earns the description rather than merely suggesting it — the kind of finish that turns a stay into an experience rather than just an accommodation.
The private balcony extends the apartment`s outlook outward — Albert Park`s Victorian gardens spread directly below, with the harbour beyond and the CBD skyline rising around it. The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering, with stovetop, microwave, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, and all the cooking essentials. In-unit washer and dryer add practical self-sufficiency for longer stays.
The Metropolis is one of the defining elements of the Auckland skyline. Completed in 1999 and designed by Peddle Thorp Architects, this 40-storey tower was New Zealand`s tallest residential building for over twenty years, and its distinctive postmodern design — a bold ziggurat-stepped roofline, sweeping glass curtain walls, and custom metalwork throughout — remains one of the most recognisable profiles above the city. The building incorporates the preserved facade of a historic early-twentieth-century magistrates` court at its base and sits above a limestone-clad podium housing exceptional shared amenity facilities.
The crown jewel is the 22-metre heated indoor swimming pool on the 8th floor — a proper lap pool available exclusively to residents and their guests, not shared with the public. The spa and fully equipped gymnasium complete a wellness offering that competes directly with Auckland`s finest hotel accommodation. From Level 25, the city arranges itself entirely differently — and the views from this apartment are among the finest available in any short-stay property in Auckland.
The entire apartment is yours — king bedroom, marble bathroom, kitchen, open-plan living and dining area, dedicated workspace, private balcony with city and harbour views, secure car park, and full access to the building`s 22-metre heated indoor pool, spa, and gym.
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Self check-in via key safe — straightforward and available at any hour. Full instructions and codes will be sent the day before your arrival. Early check-in can often be accommodated subject to availability — please enquire at booking.
While we will leave you in peace to enjoy your time in Auckland, we are available 24 hours a day for an emergency.
For those non-urgent like-to-haves, just give us a call or a quick message and we will do everything we can to make this your most memorable trip to Auckland yet.
The Metropolis sits at one of the most genuinely central addresses in Auckland`s CBD, with Albert Park immediately below and the Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki — New Zealand`s largest gallery — directly alongside. Queen Street`s shopping, dining, and cafés are a short walk downhill towards the waterfront. The Sky Tower and SkyCity complex are close by. Aotea Square and the Civic Theatre anchor Auckland`s arts and events precinct a short walk away. The Viaduct Harbour`s celebrated waterfront restaurant and bar strip, Commercial Bay`s flagship retail and dining complex, and Britomart`s cobblestoned laneways are all within comfortable walking distance.
Federal Street`s acclaimed fine-dining corridor is nearby. Britomart Transport Centre connects the full Auckland train network, and the Auckland Ferry Terminal is close for Waiheke Island and Hauraki Gulf services. Karangahape Road`s creative dining and bar scene is an easy walk uphill. Guests consistently highlight the location, the views, the walkability, and the proximity to nearby dining and attractions.
Auckland is easily explored on foot from the Metropolis — the perfect location score from guests reflects a genuinely exceptional central position. Britomart Transport Centre is a comfortable walk with full train network connections. The Inner Link and Outer Link buses connect the central suburbs frequently. Uber and taxis are available throughout the CBD at all hours. Secure parking is included for guests arriving by car. Auckland Airport is approximately 30 to 40 minutes by car.
A complimentary starter pack is provided on arrival — a small selection of tea, coffee, milk, and bathroom essentials to get you settled comfortably from the moment you arrive. Supermarkets and convenience stores are nearby for any additional supplies you need during your stay.
Weekly and monthly discount rates are available and apply automatically to longer stays.
A private airport transfer can be arranged at additional cost — please get in touch at least 48 hours before your arrival and we will organise it for you. To ensure a smooth arrival, we ask all guests to complete a short online pre-check-in form and upload a valid government-issued photo ID before arriving — this takes just a couple of minutes.
This is a non-smoking, no-vaping property throughout — including the balcony and all common areas. No parties or events. Quiet hours from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM.

We advise collecting the keys on your way to the apartment, if coming to the city via taxi or UBER, ask the taxi to wait a second while you collect the key. The walk to the apartment from the lock box is not far, but no one wants to walk in the city with suitcases!
