An Edwardian gentleman’s town house lovingly restored and offering the discerning traveller all the modern comforts in an elegant heritage setting, Braemar in Auckland’s Central Business District is close to The High Court, Auckland University and Albert Park, with cafés, theatres, galleries, and other city attractions five minutes away.

Upstairs in the “Batten Suite”, a guest suite of three rooms, the bedroom is furnished with antique furniture and a queen bed and has an ensuite bathroom. The private lounge has an open fireplace, with a fold out couch to accommodate a further two guests if required.

Our other two guest-rooms share the original big bathroom. All bedrooms have posturepedic beds, goosedown duvets and hyper-allergenic pillows.

All guestrooms have internet access. All our bathrooms have restored old style clawfoot baths and separate stand-alone tiled showers, with continuous hot water gas burners. Heat lamps warm these areas as fans extract the steam. Breakfasts are made to order in our large kitchen and served either in the adjacent breakfast lounge or out on the north facing deck. The huge front parlour can be a theatrette with its video projector and hi fi sound system. Sky digital is available on all the house TV’s and can be controlled by the guest’s own Sky remote in any room.

Braemar is a smoke free environment and fire safety is assured by an active fire detection system connected to the Central Fire Station. We can valet park guests’ cars in our own parking area and Internet access is available.
