Right location with view and within walking distance. Practical room layout. Despite our 12 hour flight delay, the staff have been accommodating and understand our need, helpful spa staff in taking me to the hydrotherapy, which is a plus facility

Penguin exhibit was great.

5/5 - Excellent

Wonderful aquarium exhibit to see penguins & other critters.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

The penguins and the shark tunnel are very interesting.  We paid extra for the Penguin Experience to go into the enclosure with a  keeper and get up close with the penguins.  It was a terrific experience; however, it is advertised that photos of you with the penguins are included and in fact a young woman did take many photos, but we never received them and customer service at the aquarium said they couldn't help us.  My memories are great but I would have liked the photos.

Popular places to visit

Auckland is surrounded by fifty dormant volcanoes, and North Head sits on one of them. It boasts a great view of Rangitoto and Auckland city, and during the last century was used by the military for coastal defence. It’s no longer used for military purposes, but old bunkers and tunnels were left behind for people to now explore. The Department of Conservation has administered this area as a reserve, so bring along a picnic and walk around the site. http://kileetravels.com/day-trips-around-auckland/
