Keep access details handy

Your swipe card opens the building access doors, your dorm and your locker. Room directions vary, so follow your separate room-specific instructions. Return your card before leaving to avoid a penalty. Most dorms have lift access, but some require stairs. Contact us before booking if you need an accessible route.

The drive from Auckland Airport takes about 25 minutes in normal traffic; actual travel time varies. We do not offer an airport pickup or transfer service.

Parking at the front of the building costs NZ$15 per night, subject to availability; arrange and pay at reception. Vehicle limits may apply; check suitability with reception. Luggage storage is free within the same day, or NZ$2 per day per item for longer storage. Drop off and collect during office hours. Collection after 11pm requires prior arrangement; reception staff check the building between 11pm and 11:30pm and are away from the desk. Confirm collection times with reception.
