Hotel recommendations for New Zealand:

Budget ($27-53/night):
Budget hotels on the side streets. Look for places with guest-friendly policies.

Mid-Range ($53-108/night):
Serviced apartments for longer stays. These usually have no issues with visitors.

Premium ($145+/night):
Luxury apartments via Airbnb.

Guest-Friendly Policy:
Most hotels here are guest-friendly.

Location tip: Stay near the central business district.

Do your research, respect the locals, stay safe. — Orlando Oscar

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

I was there in February and prices were great value. Spent about $50/day all-in.

My tip: avoid weekends.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

First time was overwhelming but exciting. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

Adding my experience: scene has improved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: better quality.

Word of caution — do not carry too much cash. Other than that, great destination.
