The Grand by SkyCity
I was very impressed with this hotel. The beauty is that there is a bus that takes you from the airport next to the hotel. 2 minutes walk.

Horizon by SkyCity
The Breakfast menu could be better. It’s same every day. It’s ok for someone staying for a day. But if you are there for longer then it feels monotonous. At least 2 dishes should be different every day.
