Staying at crown plaza made our stay in Auckland just that much better than if we had stayed elsewhe

The staff were most friendly making checking in and out a real easy process with a smile, plus a happy hello when passing reception to and from from the lifts. It makes a big difference a hello with a smile

オークランドの拠点として最適
Pros:

スタッフがとても親切でした。スカイシティの隣で、周りに飲食店も多く、とても便利です。建物はやや古さを感じましたが、リノベーションされているようで、不便さはなかったです。シャワーの出もよく、バスタブがあるのもポイント高いです。

Clean room, great location and a very good breakfast buffet
Pros:

The hotel was very nicely laid out and extremely clean with an amazing breakfast buffet. Also great location.

Cons:

We had problems with the TV working in the room and they were kind to send somebody to help but they were unable to fix it the first night and that was a bit frustrating after a couple hours of trying
