They are checked live through Fostay's hotel supplier and refreshed every six hours; this page was last checked 14 Nov 2026, 09:25 Auckland time.

**Do these prices include GST?**
Yes. Every price counts GST. Some hotels collect part of it at check-in rather than when you book (0 of the 46 listed here), and we add that part to the figure shown, so the total is what you pay in all. Amounts are in New Zealand dollars; the currency can be switched on the site, and the price shown is the one charged.
