“A great spot to stay in Auckland”

Reviewed 9 May 2013

We picked Sunderland House from the reviews in TripAdvisor. We were not in the least disappointed. The location is good, in a quiet street in the pleasant suburb of Herne Bay and in walking reach of the excellent and varied eateries of Ponsonby. The rooms and bathrooms are not huge but they have everything and are stylishly decorated. The bed... More

“Truly beautiful boutique break in Auckland”

Reviewed 22 April 2013 via mobile

Don was so kind and accommodating after our long flight from London. Arriving early we felt so comfortable and at home at Sunderland House. Such a beautiful place to base yourself in Auckland. We'll be back!

Thank you Ed & Karina for your review. It is always a pleasure to be able to provide early check in when ever possible, especially after our guests have traveled as you had, the long distances from the UK, Europe or USA, Canada. As travelers ourselves we know the importance of comfort and quiet upon arrival. The need to revive... More

“Impeccable B&B”

Reviewed 14 April 2013

We stayed at Sunderland House last week -- could not have been happier with the experience and believe me we are picky ! Donald the owner/operator is fabulous and very warm and welcoming. Attention to detail everywhere. Would not stay anywhere else in Auckland, period !

Although we strive for perfection on ones stay we also don't want to be "stuffy" about doing so. It was great that we achieved your high standards with your visit. For us our B & B is all about effortless service with elegant suites and a friendly approach. Thank you for your review we trust you will be back soon,... More

“Fabulous Location and Hospitality”

Reviewed 10 April 2013

We stayed at Sunderland House our last two nights of our New Zealand trip, and it was a perfect ending. As soon as we arrived we were greeted warmly by Donald and his wife Kathy. Since it was a Sunday night, and we happened to be the only couple staying for that night, we were immediately upgraded to the largest... More

“Best point to explore a City of Antipodes”

Reviewed 8 April 2013

I've seen the B&Bs in different countries and continents, and for most of them having the tourists is just a business, they just pretend to be a second home for the tourists. This particular Sunderland House B&B is a pleasant exception, we are REALLY felt there like in home, even it was a home far away from ours. The rooms,... More

“Perfect start to our holiday”

Reviewed 6 April 2013

What a wonderful way to begin our holiday! We stayed for 3 nights and were totally entranced by this beautiful home which Kathy and Donald have been kind enough to allow their guests to enjoy. The personal welcome written at the front door on arrival made us feel like friends rather than strangers from the other side of the world.... More

Auckland is a great place to start in NZ and so often visitors will just allow one day sight seeing. It was a pleasure to have you stay the three days, getting to know you better and able to focus the start of your NZ adventures with a touch of elegance, kiwi hospitality and local knowledge. Thank you for taking... More

“Great stay at the Sunderland House”

Reviewed 4 April 2013

We stayed in the Green Room of the Sunderland house for 3 nights at the end of a 5 week trip to AU and NZ. Donald greeted us and we toured the wonderfully aesthetic and comfortable home. We had breakfast daily outside on the beautiful porch overlooking a fantastic garden. We enjoyed a wonderful breakfast of homemade muffins, fruit, yogurt,... More

We like to cater to everyones dietary needs and gluten free can be quite challenging and yet creative so it was a pleasure to come up to the mark for your 3 day stay. Thank you for the review and glad you appreciated those extra morsels and gems of local knowledge Kindest Regards Donald & Kathy More

We started our 7 week NZ trip here and what a great start. Donald was a perfect host, our room was very comfortable and roomy and the breakfasts (served on the patio) were lovely and scrumptious.
