Difficulty finding reception, which was on level 2, but not clearly marked when you came into an enmpty lobby, that the "hotel" started at level 2. Reception spoke good english (I think) but with such a thick non-NZ accent that we had great difficulty understanding what she was telling us. Room, bed, breakfast & check out were well managed

Great stay for 3 days. Staff extremely pleasant, nice and accommodating. Located within Auckland Central Business District. Easy walking to major attractions within downtown Auckland. Extra bonus and accolades to front reception desk staff. Our flight from Canada arrived at 05:15 Auckland time. Arrived to hotel thinking we would have to wait to check in around 15:00, staff worked their magic and found a room to check in immediately (hotel was fully booked) which was quiet, away from crowds, elevators. We were sleeping soundly and recovering from Jet Lag by 7:00. Thank you Holiday Day Inn.
