Excellent contemporary hotel with great location close to the harbor and Main streets. Easy walking to sky Drive bus terminal which services Auckland airport. Staff very helpful. We used it as an overnight stay prior to airport departure. Great views from the upper floors. A nice fresh feel to the rooms.

Great Hotel if you don’t have a car
Hotel was great. Only issue is the inability of the hotel to park a rental at a reasonable rate. $59 a day is absurd.

Great location, however most of the desk staff seemed clueless. We arrived very early an were told they would text us when the room was ready, likely around 11. Never received a text. While trying to check out the desk staff kept saying but yiu have a 2 pm check out time why are you leaving. I explained we were headed to the airport. She kept insisting we stay until 2. No amount of explained seemed to satisfy her. However Ethan was a delight when we were finally able to check in.

This was our favorite place to stay on our 2 week trip to Australia and NZ. The front desk staff was very helpful and friendly and gave us great recommendations on where to eat. The room and shower waa great and so was the view. Would definitely recommend to others.

I hadn't been to Auckland CBD for many years and I found that finding the correct parking garage hard to do. The amount of roadworks and blocking of roads made this even harder. Cant fault the Hotel Holiday Inn Express. They were excellent.

Value was good, with breakfast included. Great for short stays. Only thing I didn’t like was that the gym was small with minimal facilities for a hotel of this kind. Everything else was great. Would stay again.
