This upmarket, sustainable brand from IHG Hotels and Resorts is situated in the central business district, a short walk from popular attractions such as the Sky Tower and Viaduct Harbour. Voco Auckland City Centre is within a dual-tower complex, alongside the Holiday Inn Express Auckland City Centre.
Personalised touches in guest rooms make voco a welcome addition to the city's luxury hotel scene. It's the perfect stomping ground for business travellers, with plenty of meeting spaces, a fitness centre and the city's tallest rooftop bar all within its walls.
WHERE IS IT? Sitting proudly in the city centre on the corner of Wyndham and Albert streets, several of the hotel's rooms and suites overlook the harbour.
The hotel lies just a 25-minute drive from the airport, and less than a ten-minute walk to the ferry terminal departing for Waiheke Island, known for its striking landscapes and boutique vineyards. In the city itself, popular restaurants in Britomart and along Viaduct Harbour are a short stroll away, the area being home to lots of outdoor dining options.
