    Everything was great.

    I loved the grandness of the property, it was a special and unique place to stay. The lovely owner welcomed us on arrival and showed us around. We were the only guests that night (a Monday) so we had the whole place to ourselves which was very novel. The bed was really comfortable and the room quiet. The location was perfect, just off the Market Road motorway exit. There were eateries close by, within walking distance. Convenient parking is provided for guests on the property. I would definitely stay here again.

    It did take a good while for the hot water to filter through however not a big deal just not instant

    An absolutely stunning 9 bedroom character villa and we had the whole house to ourselves, such a treat and joy to reminisce with my 86 yo mum

    Nothing not to like. Lovely characterful property

    Great old house, friendly people, lovely to stay there, and keep it alive. Rooms were nice, many places to eat a short walk away, convenient for buses, and free parking. There was a party of Chinese children staying when we were there, who were all well behaved and was nice to be ‘not just a hotel’ for a change. Would definitely stay again if in Auckland

    We enjoyed all aspects of our stay.

    Aachen house exudes old world charm with modern facilities. The rooms were clean and spacious, with all conveniences considered. The location was central to stadiums and shopping, but distanced from city noise. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to book again.

    Nothing much other than a bit of damp smell on the ground floor, which doesn’t bother us that much since you can tell from the profile the room you stayed in is on which floor

    It’s a cute house! The owner is just nice and very helpful! It is super close to the train station, and we did not have to worry about complication of going to places. I really loved the air freshener they have been using in our room.

    Not a problem, but the hot water needs to run for a few minutes to reach the rooms.

    This enormous turn-of-the-century mansion has been meticulously and lovingly restored and filled with the most luxurious furnishings and fixtures. Every suite is unique (with its own brass nameplate on the door! The Blue Room, The Victorian Suite, etc.) though they each have custom upholstery, carpets and color schemes, as well as plenty of floor space and huge bathrooms. The owner mentioned that the master painters who finished it bring apprentices here to teach them about delicate custom jobs. The huge windows everywhere keep it bright and cheery during the day (every room has blackout floor to ceiling curtains) and the warm lamplight everywhere makes it so cozy at night. It would be pretty ideal for family or corporate groups - the formal dining room has a massive plasma screen, and there is a large glassed-in conservatory / morning room with plenty of seating for meals. Also a fancy game room, full kitchen, a private off-street parking lot, and security cameras in all the public spaces. You will get no end of compliments if you manage to snag it for a group. This is easily a $500 per night luxury hotel.

    Aachen house is beautiful and has everything you need. Close to the city but in a quiet location. We found it very quick to get around. We stayed in the Orchid room. It was large and beautiful, we couldn't ask for more. Linda was great and very helpful. We would recommend this accommodation. Bonus points for parking!

    Nothing to add as the owners have worked really hard to create a superb hotel in an old building.

    This was a spacious warm room with really lovely decor. The bathroom was spacious and totally adequate for our needs. The wi -fi was first class and we were able to book activities in Auckland and check in for flights. The use of the big kitchen and dining facilities was great. Despite there being many rooms it was very quiet. Off street parking was great and it was only a short walk to the train station. All in all this was ideal place to stay whilst visiting Auckland and when we left it was only 30 mins to the airport,
