Just 45 minutes' drive from downtown Auckland, Helensville is the ideal place to stay. It's super handy to all the attractions in Auckland City, but far enough out to give you the charm of a small, historic town in a beautiful rural and riverside setting. Our homestays, b&bs, backpackers and motels will give you a real Kiwi experience you won't find staying in a city hotel or motel. And Helensville prices are super competitive and the locals extra friendly!
