Britomart Car Park

Do not park here this place is a total ripoff. I was parked there for the maximum time and the cost was 45 dollars. Park on the other side of the ferry terminal in the downtown parking building the maximum cost there is only 10 dollars.

Surprisingly well-​priced, considering the location — if you are an early bird or are nocturnal that is.
The rates during the day seem to be extremely pricey. Early birds (before 10am) can park all day for $ 13, quite reasonable for waterfront in the CBD. After 6pm, parking has a maximum rate of $ 15 beyond 3 hours, with $ 12 up to that duration. However during the day, parking can get quite excessive, reaching $ 30 for beyond 3 hours — you are almost better off copping a parking ticket from the Council.
There is a nifty system to help remember your car park level which is quite handy, with a range of native New Zealand birds, although don’t do what I did and get the ground floor one stuck in your head which didn’t end up being much help.
Additional services are also available such as car grooming and valet parking — however I was just looking for a basic car park service, when those tight streets in the Britomart precinct are overflowing with cars on yellow lines and the like.
