Our stay at the Holiday Inn, Auckland City was absolutely fantastic. The staff were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. Service across the entire hotel was consistently top-notch and professional. Best of all, it features the best location in town, making it exceptionally easy to walk to local attractions, dining, and transit options. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Auckland and will definitely stay here again!
