Who we are 

At Hotel Indigo, we welcome all guests into our neighbourhood and share our love for the place we call home. We inspire them to explore and discover different perspectives, so every one of them can create new stories of their own. With over 125 properties worldwide, we look for individuals who can inspire our guests to make unique discoveries — opening the door to meaningful connections with the diverse people, places and cultures of the local area.

Taking centre stage in midtown Auckland, Hotel Indigo Auckland stands as a testament to the vibrant intersection of history, arts, culture and business. Our boutique hotel soars above the city’s skyline in one of midtown’s tallest buildings, where we’ve masterfully preserved the historic charm of the original façade — once home to Dexter and Crozier’s “The Motor House” — while creating a fresh, modern hospitality experience.
