    Located on Queen Street. Easy access from various city spots. Plenty of things to play. Shady grass to sit. Myers Kindergarten is next to it. Parking available for up to 10 cars. Surrounded by tall buildings on all sides, yet very peaceful. Has swings, rides and slides for kids of various age groups.

    The small part of the park is under upgrade, but kids' playgrounds has new equipment. Very quiet compared to rest of cbd. Nice walking path with pram and sleeping kid

    This park is mostly for families, children, and dog owners. There is a playground, s kindergarten, open grass space, some statues, and some benches here. The park is nice too walk through from end to end though. The palm trees make you feel a bit smaller.

    Cute, fun playground, I like how things are spread out and not crowded. Simple things to play on, the shades are a good touch, would be good if there was more shade though as there is a lot of metal that was hot to the touch - we visited in Spring so it o would be much hotter in Summer.

    Great little park at the heart of the city. There are mad people out there, so don't go there after dark.

    Beautiful children's playground with cool slides and climbing things which are so pretty as well as fun! Went today on a hot summer day and there was a splash pad which was very well enjoyed by kids!

    The first time I went there, there where a group of girls crying, one was screaming and crying, in front of the children shouting she wanted to kill herself, there was about 15 or so teens high and drunk vomiting everywhere and crying, screaming around all the children at about 3-4 in the afternoon, there was blood included, very bad for the Littles to see. It is a very nice park but it's not safe, there a some bad people who live right next to the Park so KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR KIDS, do not recommend.

    Gorgeous park which is a trippy visual Alice in wonderland experience if you enter from st Kevin's arcade steps. Take time to see the very pleasing arty shops there or alternative cafes first. I recommend the small arty shop on the right of the stair entry. The area of the park where you exit the st Kevin's arcade steps downward, to the right and left of the top of the park is little areas great to hang out and look at the odd perspective of the park which feels just like Alice in wonderland . The playground further down is very much enjoyed by kids and there's a rare couple of public toilets which are very appreciated. Further down again is an overpass which is now a spectacular light and sound experience.

    Clean park, feel hidden in the city..nice place to go and just sit on a bench in the peace and quiet and read a book. :)

    Myers Park is clean and welcoming to children of all ages. Though some parts need repairs, we still enjoy the place.

    Excellent park, ideal to take the children to play... I loved it!

  • 4/5 Faye O. 6 years ago on Google
    Visited a friend and was surprised to see this small, hilly park with a small playground in the middle of the city, this park was just behind his apartment. With a nice view of the sky tower, it is good for a short walk, and relaxing under a tree..

    Lovely park with water front and you may find native birds here if you're lucky. Beautiful rose garden.

    Awesome park in the middle of all the tall buildings

  • 4/5 Amanda G. 2 years ago on Google
    An oasis in the city, while it is clean and tidy with nice gardens and nice playground but it still has an air of despair. It wasn’t quite feeling like I wanted to sit and read a book. Though it was a dull grey day. It may feel different on a summers day.

    Interesting features. Modern park with structures for between ages 2-12. Great short seating for adults. No matter where you sit, you'll be able to watch your child clearly. Toilets across the footpath in front. Bit dark and dingy. Mown grass hill for relaxing and picnics. Saw teens trying to do Parkour on some structures too-getting in the way of the little ones. Overall kids had parents monitoring and atmosphere was peaceful. However near the water feature/fountain on the other side of the park were people that had set up a home type-and had bedding and alcohol out. All different cultures too-european, Māori and pasifika. I would steer clear of that area due to it looking like those people had set up a home and didn't like when my child and I went nearby:(

    Beautiful local park at the head of the CBD. Very clean and very green with plenty of benches and a great children’s park. Public toilets and water tap next to play area. Will be great when the lower path to the city is complete!

    Great park hidden in the heart of auckland city. Keeps the kids busy for an hour or so. Nice brisk walk to k road if you are child free too, alot of hot spots around this hidden park.

  • 5/5 Bonnie M. 1 year ago on Google
    Great park close to where we stayed! There are different structures for a variety of ages, and really like the big web swing! Nice that there are bathrooms at the park although it's not the cleanest.

    Lovely playground and garden

  • 5/5 Nico S. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautiful park to relax on a bench during a sunny day with a coffee, if you’re in the area. Parents seemed to love it as a place to bring their kids for the modern playground.

  • 4/5 Tim M. 1 year ago on Google
    This is the best / only kids park downtown. At the moment you need to walk further up queenstreet to access the park and access from the east as the north entrance is closed. Nice area here for picnics, with a toilet close by. Good for ages 2 to 6.

  • 5/5 Oliver Vence G. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful park with a playground in the middle of it. There's a fountain in there where kids can just frolic during the heat of summer!

  • 5/5 Aston S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great park, nice and quaint. A little slice of green in the city. Very beautiful, just not very safe after dark

  • 3/5 Andremamp - Marcos A. 1 year ago on Google
    Park is nice, clean, and organized. Public toilets are old. The playground is designed for small kids. It is a place to take a date and meet up with friends. It is NOT suitable for BBQs or big gatherings.
