The Chatham Auckland

The Chatham Auckland prides itself on its very boutique and serviced accommodation, achieving 100% occupancy in its opening month.  Now entering its second year of operation, most of its 46 one or two bedroom suites showcase a stunning variety of Auckland vistas from the Karangahape Road ridge. 

Preserving the heritage of early Auckland with its 19th century façade, the building was completely rebuilt to five levels in 2009.  It comprises an intriguing variety of suite layouts designed for functionality and to break the mold of traditional box-style accomodation to provide guests with a restful retreat from the multi-cultural entertainment and excitement at its doorstep.

The team at The Chatham Auckland boasts no less than two Le Clefs D’Or qualified concierges including manager Franz Staufer, currently president of the New Zealand chapter.

Handy to major transport and motorway hubs with plenty of secure parking onsite, this is the perfect base for long or short stay accommodation in Auckland.
