4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Auckland

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Auckland is between May and July, when hotel prices tend to be lower. For those on a budget, a stay of at least 2 to 3 days is recommended to fully appreciate the city's notable landmarks, cultural sites, and historical attractions. Visitors can explore the vibrant port, enjoy shopping experiences, delve into museums, savour delightful dining options, and participate in guided tours. Additionally, the friendly locals, impressive monuments, and stunning volcanoes add to the great value for money that Auckland offers during this period.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals to Auckland on Hotels.com, begin by exploring the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections, where you may find discounted rates on hotels as your travel date approaches.

Additionally, the Smart Shopping feature in the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you’re more likely to see the best options available. With these tools, you could be the first to know about price drops or newly available rooms for your spontaneous getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates could help you save on your stay in an Auckland hotel. For those seeking a distinctive experience, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised touch and may offer better value.
