The only downfall was that the bathroom was falling apart. Other than that it was an excellent stay. Everyone was super friendly including guests and it was a very convenient location for what we needed having small children with us. They thought they were queens being on the top most floor!! Brilliant!

Value for money.
We stayed here for two nights. Overall, good accommodation and clean rooms. Tea, coffee, towels, linen, soap and shampoo are provided. There is a convenient shop next to the building but closes at about 9pm. Restaurants and other shopping places are little bit far – about 15 to 20 min walk. Train stations including “The Strand Station” are little bit far and need taxi. Only street parking is available and free between 6pm and 8am. All other time need to pay for parking (about 4NZD per hour). Very helpful reception and accommodate late check-in (about 10pm). Reception staff given us good useful information about the area. Wifi is available but need to pay to use.
I will use them again.

You get what you pay for with this accommodation—ideal for budget travelers looking for a no-frills room with a bed. The area primarily caters to students, so it has a bit of a dormitory vibe. The bed was decent, but the shower was small and had a curtain instead of a door. The room could have used an extra cleaning, as there was a strange smell that required us to open the windows for ventilation. That said, for a one-night stay at this price, I can't complain. The location in Auckland is excellent, close to Queen Street.

My needs as a Customer are pretty minimal, but Empire Apartments meets those needs every time. The staff who greeted me were kind and polite and informative.
People in and around the place were also friendly who speaks of their clients and reputation. Will stay here again.

Property was ok for the night, but room was very basic and quality of the bed was average. Loud drunk neighbours at 1am, with occasional yelling. But I do realise that the apartment is in a student location and designed for that market.

Facilities were average but that is reflected in the price and basically what we expected. However, the location is fantastic, easy to walk to town. We did a lot of steps but saved us money!

Cheap accommodation. Insufficient seating or space available for the 6 adults booked. Lounge area that was shown in photos appeared to have been converted to a 3rd bedroom.
Beds were cheap, nasty and uncomfortable.
There were 2 bathrooms.
