Braemar on Parliament Street

We had such a fabulous stay at Braemar. Beautiful accomodation and excellent friendly customer service from the owners. They went above and beyond to accommodate our family and pets. The breakfast was also a lovely surprise. Highly recommend checking them out if you are ever in need of somewhere to stay in Auckland. We will definitely be back again.

A beautiful older building on what was a quiet street. A brilliant host (so sorry sir I forgot your name) but very welcoming and you know that he loves doing BnB as a hobby/living. Close walking distance to Spark arena. Breakfast was excellent, and his Scrambled Eggs were top notch and 2nd only to my mums. 1 downside is that (Norman’s) room had a musty smell, we tried to air the room out while we were out, but yeah no success, tolerable during the night but once that small issue is dealt to, it would be a near perfect place to stay. All the very best for the future.

John is a great host, provides wonderful info about local events, culture, history. And he quotes poems!

What a gem of a place! It is located on a quiet street, yet within walking distance of the harbor and downtown. The owner is charming and saw to our needs. Breakfasts were substantial and tasted good. I highly recommend it.

We had a two night stay after cruise ship travel at Braemar on Parliament Street. We choose to walk with our luggage from port to bed & breakfast, and though we are in our senior years and unaccustomed to steep streets, found this location to be excellent. Its quiet, residential area near historical site and university. Host John and his spouse were magnificent, providing comfort, information, civil lessons, and hospitality. Enjoyed breakfast, too. Room was clean and spacious though needs ceiling repairs. No air-conditioning, but not needed. Bathroom facilities inside room dated to colonial days a bit uncomfortable; change in shower curtain recommended. But, we would definitely stay here again upon our return to Auckland. Thank you!

Fantastic property management.

This place was amazing and so welcoming! Situated in one the best Neighborhoods of Auckland, it has easy access to the university, and all the hot spots of Auckland. The place has a character, and the owner is so caring, helpful and welcoming. I totally felt at home! The highlight of my stay was the breakfast.. you simply can not miss it!

Lovely host.

We found our stay at Braemar to be most comfortable. The hosts are attentive, the street quiet, and the location central to a number of the local Auckland sights and activities. We had no trouble finding a variety of places to eat in easy walking distance. The house is lovely old Victorian charm personified, and we were sad to leave. The breakfasts were varied and plentiful. If we are staying in Auckland again, we will be sure to seek a room at Braemar again.

The Braemer on Parliament Street was to say the least, an unexpected find during our honeymoon in New Zealand. Nestled in-between two larger buildings the Red and Gray exterior caught my eye as we passed the High Court in Auckland. At the ring of the bell, the light inside illuminated and we were greeted by our soon to be host, John. The next morning we woke up for a lovely breakfast and coffee. We were then escorted to Stratton Station where we boarded our Carriage on the Northern Explorer to continue our adventure through New Zealand. John, we want to sincerely thank you for the kind hospitality and conversation during our stay. It was a wonderful experience that we will remember for a lifetime. Best Wishes, Christopher and Elizabeth
