We spend a lovely 3 nights with Beth at her B&B at the start of our trip to NZ. 23 Hepburn set the standard which other accommodation had to try to match!! In advance, Beth provided information about the best way to get from the airport, and said that we could leave our bags on arrival. She was there to... More

We traveled both islands for 6 weeks and spent our final two nights at this wonderful warm B&B. It is located in a very nice residential neighborhood with easy access to various parts of the City. We walked everywhere but there are easy buses available. The house is a California bungalow style and well cared for by Beth. As you... More

After flying from the United States, I was warmly greeted by Beth in this lovely Ponsonby area of Auckland. My room was clean, quiet and very comfortable in all aspects. Beth graciously guided me to areas where I could go for a run, find a nice meal and be out in nature. The breakfast provided was very good and Beth's... More

23 Hepburn is a charming Victorian house in the Ponsonby area in Auckland. We were greeted warmly by Beth, who showed us how to easily get to the main sites of Auckland. She also gave us a list of restaurants on nearby Ponsonby street which was very helpful. Our room was very comfortable and our breakfast was served in our... More

Hi Beth, we stayed with you two years ago on Valentine’s Day. Our son and his wife were with us and they had a room across the hall from us; it was like staying in a home of our own. The rooms were decorated so beautifully and the mini refrigerators in the rooms were wonderfully convenient. Your breakfast was delicious... More

I spent a thoroughly pleasant 6 nights here and couldn't have hoped for more. Beth was charming and very helpful, yet unobtrusive. In my view she manages to strike exactly the right balance in making guests feel at home but without smothering them. I was in the Ponsonby room which, even though at the front of the house, was peaceful.... More

If you can't get in here, take second best at one of Auckland's big hotels. We stayed for two nights before a trip to the Bay of Islands, and two nights on our return. Beth could not have been more helpful and kind, but not obtrusive, and her house is a jewel. When we returned from sailing, our daughter and... More

This is one B&B in a million, providing the comforts you could only wish for at home, the beauty and charm of a brilliantly refurbished California bungalow, privacy if you need it, and a most gracious and helpful hostess! Located in Ponsonby, a quirky suburb of Auckland with a lot of character, shops and restaurants are all within walking distance.... More

The B&B is located in an old victorian on a quiet street but very close to everything. The owner is a wonderful lady and very knowledgable about the area; she provides handy maps and tips on local establishments for dining, banking, and whatever. The property is impeccably clean and the price is very reasonable considering the location. For a great... More
