Beautiful property, lovely rooms and we were able to walk everywhere from here. The breakfast buffet provided great options. The only downside was the cost of parking. They utilize the parkade next door at $59 per day, which is pretty steep.

Had a lovely stay at the Holiday Inn Express here in Auckland! It's very central if you want to explore the city center by foot. Lots of great restaurants, bars, cafes, shops, and parks all so close by. This hotel has pretty much all you need to get the day started for your adventures with comfortable beds, nice staff and lots of options for breakfast!
