I stayed at the Ibis Budget for five nights. The pricing was great, and for the price the hotel was excellent value considering the great location. The staff were friendly and great to deal with, nothing was a problem. Highly recommend as a budget accomodation option.

Good location, easy walk to Sky tour and the stop for the on / off bus. My room was ok - glad it had a balcony as it got quite hot and i had to open the door to sleep, the little fan didnt quite cut it!

The location of this hotel is terrific. Short walk to Main Street and ferry terminals and eating spots. For that reason I thought it was a great hotel. However! My room configuration was awful! It was an Lshaped room. There was a small 90x90cm balcony on which stood the aircon motor, I wasn’t game to stand on the balcony it looked very unsafe. The bed head was located on the outer wall of the hotel room adjacent to the door out to the balcony so to me it felt i was falling out of the room all night it was very unsettling. The bedhead needs to be repositioned to the inner wall which backs on to the corridor and then you could look out of the room. One plus was that the aircon was terrific! There is no double glazing on the windows or balcony door so the incredible noise all night long literally until dawn and beyond was unbelievable. People screaming and fighting, cars tooting, cars revving up and down the street, gangs yelling out, Some guy with a saxophone played the darn thing until dawn both nights!! Seriously give it a rest bro! When I bought it to the attention of staff on check out they shrugged and said “ oh well it’s a weekend it’s noisy” so much for a sincere apology. It’s a budget hotel I get that but for my $545 for what equates to two full nights I thought it would be better. The view from the room was quite good but I didn’t pay to sit in my room and look at the view. My friend stayed in an Air B&B and paid a much better rate for 8 nights and it was fully self contained and so very quiet by comparison. I would have moved hotels had I been there for a longer time. I’m not sure if rooms towards the back would be any quieter?? I was on 17th floor overlooking the city and Britomart area. It certainly had some creature comforts, tv, tea and coffee making facilities, a mini bar size fridge. The best part was the staff who checked me in, two lovely Asian gents who couldn’t do enough, I forgot my charger cable, no probs they had one I was able to borrow.

We were in a room that faced a high rise construction site. Noise went to around 11PM and started around 5AM. Mentioned this o management and they said it was not their fault. Yes it was, as they could have not put customers in the noise affected rooms.

For a night or so that is super affordable and right in the heart of the city this hotel is good. The rooms are small but clean! I had a room on the higher floors and there was a fridge, kettle, microwave and hot plate/hob. There was a door to the outside with a miniscule deck that could not really be used as a deck. I was travelling on business and only needed an affordable, handy spot in the city and it met my needs.

WE BOOKED 3 DAYS AND LEFT AFTER 1 it is a very poorly maintained property, breakfast is cereal only, elevator doesn't work. asked for pillows and got told they didnt have extra. tiny dated room. trully horrible

Great location of this hotel was why $150 per night seemed acceptable for a twin room. However room exceptionally small, difficult to get around the beds. Enquired at reception for extra bedside lamp as we had two beds and informed that only one lamp per room.

For a 'budget' hotel, this room was overpriced at $194! Room was small, grungy looking, window didn't shut properly, lock on door to balcony was broken. No crockery - just a note saying if you want crockery you had to go down to reception to get it! No bedside table. And the wardrobe!!! I am tall, and still couldn't reach the coathanger rail! The whole hotel had a weird smell too! On the plus side, the bed was comfortable (if a little small).

Great central hotel, a good place to stay for the price close to everything, the room was nice and clean a bit on the small size but this is normal for a budget hotel. we could walk to most things with it central location. Still waiting on my points to show??

I have been pleasantly surprised by Ibis Budget in Wynyard Street! The guys at Reception give you the best welcome, I want to mention particularly Rahul and Andrean, they both have outstanding attitude to the customer, the go way beyond what we expect of any personnel at a Hotel Reception. Please Management, compliment them. The room is good, a bit old and spartan, but has everything that a tired traveller needs, no complaint at all. There is a stove and a shower and your bed is made every day. Location is excellent, in the middle of the city, the Skybus from the airport stops just round the corner. If you come by car, you can park it at Wilsons Parking directly opposite the hotel for $30/24 hours, an excellent deal. Well done Ibis, well done team! I will come back. Thank you! Mariana Amar

Pros: The hotel is in a good location. In the middle of the CBD and within easy walking distance to all the major tourist attractions. The front desk are friendly. The hotel is not expensive compared to other hotels in the area. Cons: There is a large construction project right across the street and the workers begin, and are noisy, very early in the morning. It looks like that construction project will run until at least February 2020. The shower pressure is very weak. I was on the 7th floor and had trouble getting a decent shower in the morning. The water comes out in dribs and drabs. It takes a while for the hot water to run in the shower. One morning I had to let the shower run for a full 10 minutes and it was still cold. If you wake up in the middle of the night and turn on the bathroom light, you will see bugs scurry for cover on the floor. I'm not sure if they were roaches but, either way, if you keep your luggage on the floor - keep it closed at night to avoid taking home stowaways. Don't bother buying the boxed breakfast. You can get better food for less cost at any number of restaurants that are within easy walking distance. There is also a supermarket less than 3-4 minutes from the hotel. I had two single beds in my room. There are no chairs in the room, you have to sit on the beds. There is no closet in the room. Just 4 hooks on the wall for you to hang up your clothes. So now you know … buyer beware

Stayed 3 nights. Convenient to public transport options in the city centre (trains, buses, ferries). Clean and comfortable. I had 2 nights good sleep, but on Friday night I could hear the nightclubs through to the early hours of Saturday. The room is compact, small but adequate and functional, as one expects for an Ibis Budget. The one thing I missed was a small desk to put the laptop on -- the bedside lamp stand was not quite suitable for using a laptop. I stopped using the hotel WiFi after both MS Update and the AV complained that their downloads failed verification (one possible cause is if the WiFi were compromised). The room has a fridge, a microwave, and a small range top. The coat-hanger rail was in a high cupboard; one might need to stand on the provided stool to use it.

Value for money stay at the Ibis. Location is excellent. It was noisy in the weekend as ii is adjacent to night club. Requiring 200 min character is a joke. Waste of time. I suggest that this requirement is taken off in the future,.

Location was good room itself needs cleaning and maintenance - someone elses open packet of biscuits in cupboard, marks on walls, food on blinds, shower head soaks entire bathroom, person accross hall complained the self closing door was too loud.

We were hoping for a place that was just a bed for the night which this place was but we hardly slept because of constant noise from construction work during the day that started from early in the morning to noisy clubbers and pumping music at night going till 4am. Windows are single glazed so the noise come through like they are open. We were looking forward to Sunday night as no club might have meant sleep but no the construction worker went through the night. Location was good for the city and the rooms were basic, small but clean. Heater in room did not work.
