Jucy Hotel (doubles from £35, 62 Emily Place, ) is a good budget alternative. The Quadrant (studio apartments from £75, 100 Waterloo Quadrant, ) is a hip and reasonably affordable option for self-caterers. If money is no object, the pick of Auckland's boutique accommodation is Hotel de Brett (from £130 a night, 2 High St, +64 9 925 9000, ), a central, stylish 1930s hotel with a mix of vintage and contemporary furniture. Its classic bar was once a regular hangout of the city's hard-drinking hacks. Culture The Michael Lett gallery (285/2 Great North Road, +64 9 376 1266, ) is in an willfully perverse location: a former car mechanics on a busy road in Grey Lynn. I couldn't make head nor tail of the sound installation, but fans of cutting-edge contemporary art will no doubt fare better. ArtSpace (300 Karangahape Road, +64 9 303 4965, ) has great exhibitions; the lovely old Mercury Theatre (9 Mercury Lane, Newton) is putting on plays again for the first time in around 20 years; and radio station 95bFM () showcases new local bands.

The countdown for the Rugby World Cup has begun! From 18 September to 30 October, the UK is welcoming thousands of fervent rugby fans from all over the world.

Our Ranger 4 person VW campervan has 2 large double beds and for space and comfort on board your camper.
A visitor to New Zealand's biggest city is in danger of being disappointed: Auckland lacks the immediate buzz of Wellington or the laid-back charm of Dunedin. But while Auckland's centre is a little underwhelming, there is plenty of life in this city - and it's all in the suburbs. Food writer Simon Farrell-Green () took me on a tour of the best bits Cafes Ponsonby is where Auckland's well-heeled creatives hang out, and as such it's not for everybody (my friends from down-to-earth Hamilton refer to it as "Ponsnobby"). But for those that don't mind drinking coffee with yummy mummies and their ilk, it's full of great cafes. Try Good One (42 Douglas St, +64 9 360 5040), a locals' haunt serving delicious rhubarb and custard muffins. Shed 5 is a fantastically offbeat cafe-cum-motorbike-showroom in Rhubarb Lane (), a quirky development in a former bus depot not far from the centre. When we dropped in, classic cars awaiting auction were parked among the tables, just in case anyone fancied a Ferrari with their flat white.
Beaches One of Auckland's best beaches can only be found with a little insider knowledge. Park near the Takapuna Beach Cafe and Store (22 The Promenade, North Shore, +64 9 484 0002, ) and pick up an ice-cream – I can recommend the passion fruit sorbet – then leave Takapuna beach to the tourists and walk over the black volcanic rocks to Thorne Bay. This secluded little beach has trees providing shade and is a safe place to swim (though not when we visited, as there was a tsunami warning). And don't attempt to cross the rocks at high tide. Outside the city Mudbrick Vineyard Beautiful Waiheke Island () is a 30-minute boat ride from central Auckland, and is unmissable. Go wine tasting at Mudbrick Vineyard (), try the olive oil at Rangihoua Estate (), and treat yourself to lunch at Cable Bay () – the wine bar is a cheaper alternative if you can't stretch to the restaurant.
Shopping La Cigale (69 St Georges Bay Rd, Parnell, l) is the best of Auckland's many farmers' markets. It's a mix of excellent local produce and great immigrant-run stalls selling delicacies such as spicy Serbian sausage, plus a restaurant. But don't take my word for it: John Key, the prime minister, shops here most Saturdays. I spotted him buying French cheese, casually dressed in shorts and T-shirt, with one burly minder a discreet distance away. The Department Store (10 Northcroft Street, Takapuna, ) is a "concept store" stocking local designers – and is also New Zealand's only Topshop outlet. Shoppers queue down the street on Thursdays when the new consignment arrives from the UK. St Kevin's Arcade (179 Karangahape Road) has some lovely boutiques and vintage shops, including Children of Vision and Fast and Loose. Nearby Ironbank (150 Karangahape Road, ) also houses some interesting shops. Douglas + Bec (9 St Mary's Road, Ponsonby, +64 9 551 3685, ) are a father and daughter design team making simple homeware out of reclaimed timber – their shop is well worth a browse.
Performance began to ramp up as the second weekend approached, culminating with growth in hotel occupancy (+11. 5% to 85. 6%), average daily rate (+4. 6% to JPY19, 627. 19) and RevPAR (+16. 6% to JPY16, 795. 63) on Saturday 28 September. But what relationship is there between host stadia, their fixtures and the hotels in close proximity? Tokyo West and the Tokyo Stadium, Chofu Tokyo West – the STR Tokyo submarket closest to the Tokyo Stadium – hosted the opening ceremony and tournament curtain raiser on 20 September, plus a second match just one day later. Hotels reported a boost and enjoyed five consecutive days of double-digit RevPAR growth, year over year, from 19-23 September. Interestingly, coming from a high base level, occupancy actually decreased on the two match days, however, considerable ADR growth drove RevPAR increases of 26. 2% and 10. 5%, respectively. *Tokyo West/Shibuya/Shinjuku Nagoya and the City of Toyota Stadium, Toyota Nagoya's proximity to the City of Toyota Stadium ensured hoteliers were a lot happier than the Georgia and Namibia fans who witnessed September losses.
