Parnell

Perched on a ridge above the Waitematā Harbour, Parnell is adjacent to the Auckland Domain and a short 10-minute walk from both Auckland Museum and the downtown of Auckland's city centre.

The main street, Parnell Road, is a vibrant hub of eateries, boutiques and luxury stores set within the largely intact Victorian commercial architecture. It's a streetscape that has no direct equivalent anywhere else in Auckland. Parnell has something on offer for everyone, from art, food, and design through to Māori culture and Auckland's history. Whether you're visiting as a solo traveller, as a couple, or with your family, you'll find that Parnell is the place you want to spend your time in.

Situated on the fringe of the Auckland CBD, Parnell is an ideal destination for shopping, offering much more niche and boutique shopping experiences than the neighbouring suburbs. There are dozens of boutique shops offering fashion, jewellery, home decor and design, wine, flowers and gifts, New Zealand made products, and much more.

Renowned for its hospitalty, you'll find Parnell boasts a number of award-winning Auckland restaurants that are ideal for any time of day - breakfast, lunch, dinner, or even just a quick coffee - Parnell is your place.
