Surrounding Area

Braemar is situated in an historic residential precinct in the Auckland Cental Business District and is unique for being the only Victorian townhouse in the Auckland CBD still lived in today. We are just a short walk from the city's parks, theatres, cafes, restaurants, art galleries, concert venues and shopping malls. Even though we are in the heart of the city, we are located in a quiet tree-lined street and the solid Victorian architecture of the house means that we are able to offer a quiet haven in the city centre.

Accommodations

Braemar was built in 1901 as a "gentleman's townhouse" . We have restored the house and renovated the services to incorporate 21st century technology including secure wireless broadband internet. In our own offstreet carpark we can offer free parking . All of our bathrooms have walk-in showers and large claw-foot baths. The guest lounge features a projector TV (very large screen!), and open fireplace for winter warmth. In summer our sunny decks are popular for relaxing .
