Family Accommodation in Auckland: Comfort, Convenience & Location

With so many things to see and do during your time here, we know that choosing the right accommodation is important for a successful family holiday.

After years of hosting families from around the world, we've learned what truly matters when it comes to family accommodation in Auckland. It's not just about having enough beds, but creating a space that works for everyone - from your toddler who needs space to burn off energy, to your teenager who values their privacy, to you as parents who want to unwind after exploring everything Auckland has to offer. That's exactly what you'll find at Rose Park Hotel Auckland - accommodation that meets these needs and makes family travel easier.
 

What Makes Great Family Accommodation in Auckland?

Room Configurations for Families

Most importantly, configurations. Your hotel room isn't just the place where you rest your head, but it's where you come back to relax and unwind before heading back out to explore. Many hotels offer small rooms or limited room options, reducing the chance of finding a room set up that suits you and your family.

At Rose Park Hotel, we offer over a dozen different room types, all newly refurbished, with several perfectly catering to families:

• Superior Twin Queen Room - Accommodating up to 4 people, these rooms are bright and spacious with large windows offering views over the Parnell Rose Gardens, with two plush queen beds. These rooms offer a peaceful space with ample natural light, creating an open and welcoming atmosphere for families.
• Superior Twin Queen Balcony Room - Also catering to up to 4 people, this room features two comfortable queen beds, also with views of the Parnell Rose Gardens. This version of the Superior Twin Queen room, however, includes a private balcony, giving families that valuable outdoor space to enjoy fresh air and unwind without leaving their room.
• Superior Triple Room - Perfect for families of 4 where everyone wants their own bed. With three beds, including two king singles and a queen, this room configuration works fantastically for two adults and two children, ensuring each child has their own space while mum and dad can get a restful night's sleep.

For families travelling with extended family members or older children who want privacy, we offer interconnecting rooms, which provide proximity while maintaining space and independence.

All rooms come with a flatscreen smart TV (to keep the kids entertained), air conditioning to keep everyone comfortable and premium toiletries, just in case you forget your own personal care items.
 

Location, Location, Location

Another important factor when choosing the right hotel for your family is location. This all depends on your plans - how long are you staying, where are you visiting, will you be walking, catching public transport or driving? While some hotels may have all the facilities, if the location isn't ideal, that can be problematic.

We believe the ideal position balances proximity to attractions with a peaceful surrounding, which is why we think we're perfectly located in Parnell. Situated on the edge of Auckland CBD, just 30 minutes from Auckland airport, with stunning views of the Sky Tower or the Parnell Rose Gardens, our location offers a calmer environment while maintaining easy access to major family attractions - you're never too far from the action.

Some nearby Auckland attractions include:

• Auckland Museum and Wintergardens - Located in Auckland Domain, just a 5-minute drive away, this is perfect for families - kids love the volcanic displays and interactive exhibits, plus the beautiful Wintergardens next door are great for getting some fresh air and having a run around.
• Kelly Tarlton's SEA LIFE Aquarium - Features incredible marine life exhibits, penguin encounters, and the famous underwater tunnels where families can walk through shark-filled waters. The interactive Stingray Bay and Antarctic ice adventure make this fun for all ages.
• Auckland Zoo and MOTAT - Both great for kids and just a short drive away. The zoo has tigers, giraffes and native New Zealand animals, while MOTAT lets children get hands-on with planes, trains, and interactive exhibits that keep them engaged for hours.
• Viaduct Harbour - Right next to the city centre, just a 20-minute walk away, this waterfront hub features restaurants, cafes, and even a maritime museum. Families can enjoy harbourside walks, watch the boats, and dine with stunning water views.
• Spark Arena - Auckland's main entertainment venue, conveniently located just a 15-minute walk away, is perfect for families attending concerts, sporting events, or shows during their stay.
• Mission Bay - Only a 10-minute drive from the hotel, Mission Bay offers safe swimming, an expansive playground and the iconic water fountain. The beachfront promenade is perfect for family walks, or grabbing a bite at the numerous cafes (and ice cream shops!).
