A CLEAN and SIMPLE way to add appendices to Table of Contents and bookmarks

I found a lot of questions abount appendices and ToC. Many users want appendices to be grouped in an Appendix part, however some problems arise with ToC, hyperref, PDF viewer bookmarks, and so on.

There are different solutions which require extra packages, command patching and other extra code, however none of them satisfies me. I almost found an easy way to accomplish a good result, where appendices are added to bookmarks in the right way and hyperref links point to the right page. However, the number of the "Appendix" part page is wrong (it's the number of appendix A). Is there any EASY way to fix that?

This is a MWE:

documentclassbook

usepackage[nottoc,notlot,notlof]tocbibind
usepackagehyperref

begindocument

 frontmatter
 tableofcontents

 mainmatter
 partFirst
 chapterOne
 Lorem ipsum

 partSecond
 chapterTwo
 Dolor sit amet

 appendix

 % These two commands do all the job:
 addcontentslinetocpartAppendices
 part*Appendices

 chapterUno
 First appendix

 chapterDue
 Secondo appendix

enddocument

This is the ToC (with links pointing to the right page)

I First 1
1 One 3

II Second 5 
2 Two 7

Appendices 11 (this should be 9)
A Uno 11
B Due 13

Using bookmark package instead of (in addition to) hyperref make it worse (Appendix link and ToC page will point to chapter "Two"). Switching addcontentsline and part* doesn't solve the problem.

EDIT: for some reasons, I do not want to use appendix package

You can provide a suitable target for the hyperlink by introducing a phantomsection. To ensure that this link to the correct page, use if after cleardoubelpage

documentclassbook

usepackage[nottoc,notlot,notlof]tocbibind
usepackagehyperref

begindocument

 frontmatter
 tableofcontents

 mainmatter
 partFirst
 chapterOne
 Lorem ipsum

 partSecond
 chapterTwo

 appendix

A very clean and simple solution, that's exactly what I was looking for, thank you! It also works with bookmark package.

Thank you, I already knew this package, however for some reasons (such as the fact that it messes up TeXstudio structure tree) I prefer not to use it. Also, I was looking for a more general solution that may apply to other situations too (not only the appendix).

@Taekwondavide Have you contacted the appendix package maintainer about this?

Dec 27 '18 at 20:23

@PeterWilson I badly explained myself. Appendix package works fine, but TeXstudio doesn't recognize appendixpage as a new part of the document, which causes all appendices to be seen seen by the editor as chapters of the last part in the main matter, which is quite annoying for me as I'm using TeXstudio's structure tree a lot (this is not the only reason I want to fix my code without additional packages). However, the bookmark tree in PDF viewer is correct and appendices are seen as a part.
