I loved my stay here. I was on a solo trip and wanted to budget certain portions so my hotel was part of it during my stay in Auckland. I felt safe, taken care of by staff, and breakfast was quite good! You are close to everything downtown and can walk as well which is also great for solo travel.

Had a great stay at the Holiday Inn Express Auckland. The location was perfect — right in the city centre, within walking distance to great cafes, shops. The room was okay and surprisingly quiet for a central spot. The complimentary breakfast was simple but fresh. Only downside was the limited parking options nearby. Ideal for a short city stay.
