We came to Auckland for a family holiday. We booked in to stay for 6 nights and on the 3rd day, my children played with kinetic sand and left it on the floor as we were in a hurry. When we came back, the reception called us and said we had done "damage" to the room and they have a video of it. I went to the reception to have a look and the guy at the reception was condescending and rude. I explained that it is kinetic sand and it does not do damage. They vacuumed it and charged us $172. From that time on, every time we called reception or order coffee, they never failed to ask for the payment. We felt very uncomfortable and harrassed. The duty manager quoted us $240. Very inconsistent and also condescending. We paid the charge and whilst we were still checked in. This is a ver frustrating and disappointing experience for someone who uses Holiday Inn every time we travel (to Queesntown especially). Horrible customer service. It ruined the mood of our holiday

Firstly, No parking lot. No complimentary water on arrival. Box of tissues nearly empty[only 10 pieces in the box] . No spare toilet paper. The towels have a nasty smell. Iam very disappointed. I paid $399 for 1night plus $59 for parking. This is Thursday, 14th March and its my birthday. I will never go back there again and will not recommend to holiday inn to anyone

Pros: location was great. View from the room was spectacular. A very decent breakfast. Cons: the place is a very busy, high-capacity tourist hotel, no quiet place to work with a computer if you need a short but focused effort. There are meeting rooms, which are always closed.

Curtains on my windows were too sheer and people outside could see in. Also, the sheer curtains let too much light in for sleeping. Also, the check-in time (3:00 PM) is far to late. However, my room was clean and updated.

For Americans traveling internationally, this was a great hotel with one exception: the parking was very tricky. It would have been nice to have been informed by hotel staff of the parking options nearby, their rules for after hours entrances/exits, and the fees.

We really enjoyed our stay. The room was extremely clean and modern and the staff were lovely and helpful. The hotel was an easy, mostly downhill, walk to the cruise ship terminal. The included breakfast was a pleasant surprise. Would definitely stay again.

This hotel was in a great location for us, the staff was excellent, and the view from our room was wonderful. One little caviot, the bathroom was odd. It had translucent glass walls all around and I felt didn't offer enough privacy. Depending on who you're traveling with that might be an issue. But overall our stay was wonderful.

Feb 2024. Building and road repairs were being carried out around the hotel. Not intrusive, but did not create a good welcome. Breakfasts were self service, with a good range and regularly refilled.
