A very nice, very large hotel, so very convenient to the airport. We stayed there on two occasions during our NZ holiday, and the rooms were excellent. The buffet breakfast provided all we needed. I would never pay for their buffet dinner again. It was nowhere near the standard of the other offerings of the hotel. Food was meagre, and everything including a soup was only just luke-warm. Food options were sub-standard. We wished we had gone to McDonalds or the like. But we would gladly stay at the Holiday Inn Auckland Airport during future visits, but definitely dodge that terrible buffet dinner.
