Had a wonderful weekend stay at The Convent. Beautiful historic building, renovated tastefully, comfortable and cosy. There's a restaurant in the building if you prefer to stay in. Friendly, helpful staff. Roadworks outside were a minor inconvenience, but this is just temporary. My new favourite place to stay in Auckland.

Lovely property, however room 3 which was down stairs and close to some sort of staff utility room was a bit noisy and a very dark side of the hotel. So sun what so ever. West side would have been preferable

Very cool property with friendly staff and an excellent and atmospheric bar/restaurant. Walking distance to other restaurants as well. Loved hearing how the building was saved from the wrecking ball by the current owners. We stayed in the handicapped accessible room which had a shower that was open to the bathroom, so a big soggy but otherwise comfortable!

Great option for this location. A bit out of the downtown core, but I was not going into downtown. Short walk to Eden Park and highway access. Very interesting building given it was a convent in a previous life. Staff were very nice, polite, and helpful. I had a great stay there.

Absolutely amazing hotel with wonderful staff. The room we stayed in was gorgeous with plenty of amenities to keep us feeling like we’ve been looked after. The hotel itself is so lovely and clearly a lot of love and attention was given to restoring this old convent. I’d highly recommend staying here if you’re visiting Auckland.

The room description indicates it has a microwave but it did not. This kind of information is helpful for travellers when planning their trip and should be clarified. The hotel is nicely renovated with clean spartan rooms that display the buildings history. The attached restaurant is exceptionally good

This a stylish hotel. It is, indeed, a former convent. It was empty for some years, after which it was renovated and turned into a hotel. The decor plays with Christian themed art a bit. I liked it a lot, but it might not be for everyone. The rooms were spotless, the staff was friendly. The hotel hosts an outstanding restaurant, which is a separate business from the hotel itself. The area around the hotel, is not touristy. There is a bunch of car dealerships and other non-touristy stores around. The restaurants and cafes are about 20 minutes walk away.

Hmmm...comfy bed

Unfortunately the first hiccup was I had to go and ask for towels as not a single one had we been given. The room is decorated with a view to the ex convent that it is. So the bedside tables are very basic rusty things. One wall is decorated as though it were a poor nun's with deliberate peeled paint. We were in room four which has a wet room for the bathroom so consequently the whole floor gets wet. The worst thing though was the room was far too hot with no means of regulating it. We didn't eat here They don't do breakfast.
