Braemar on Parliament Street

Braemar is very well located. Its only a 10 minutes walk to the harbour and city centre. It is situated next to a park in a quiet street. The house dates from 1910 and has a very stylish interior. When arriving, you immediately feel at home. John and Mel are really very warm hosts. They are always ready to help and give advice. This is much more than just a b&b!!!!!

Very expensive b&b, well-located near downtown Auckland. A friendly welcome and parking, which is welcome. But for the price the room(s) were lacking in amenities. In particular, for a business traveller, there is no table or a desk where you can do some work, I couldn't join the wifi network despite the prominently displayed password given - and I was doing this after 9 pm so nobody to ask. The bedside table isn't even big enough to take your book and a glass of water, and the tiny lamp is not something you could read by. The room is dingy - guess that's the old-style they advertise.

Well located hotel, well more of a bed & breakfast. The service is the standout as John and his wife take immense pride in their work. For me though, the property lacks the modern niceties and necessities for a business traveller like aircon and a desk in the room. Also wasn't a big fan of the communal bathroom setup. John and his wife do make every effort to please with what they have to offer.

Exceptionally friendly hosts, all comforts offered, friends were invited to share the residence, exquisite furnishings/crockery. within walking distance of Vector Arena and Sky city

I have to say that I have never felt so welcome in any other hotel/B&B in Australia/NZ!What a unique house, so nice to stay somewhere that really feels like home. The owners are amazing, very helpful and cant do enough for you when you arrive through to when you leave, the hotel is very very well maintained/clean and you can see that John (owner)is very passionate about the house and the B & B business. I will definitely be staying there when I return to NZ! It is a great location, only a 10 min walk to banks, shops, pubs etc., a quiet neighbourhood and the brekky is amazing especially the cooked bekky yum! A fantastic place to stay, thanks for a great time guys, see you again soon.

Very homely. Hosts are very welcoming and do everything to make your stay as nice as possible.

Despite friendly owners this didn't really work. The room had no wardrobe, no TV, no iron and no bathroom. The shared bathroom was down the hall which is a major inconvenience, especially in the night.

We have booked to go back! If you like simple, 1900's architecture, homely, friendly, and not private and don't mind small then this is it

Great spot by the cbd, really cool old building, owners couldn't be friendlier or more helpful, great option

Charming! Great location! Not your everyday experience, but a bohemian gem in the midst of CBD!
