The property is amazing. Very well appointed in to a very high standard. Beds are great and rooms full black out so we always get a great nights sleep.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (1,021 reviews)
The hotel is attached to the NZICC, which is convenient for attending conventions/conferences. That's the best thing about the hotel.
The rooms were nice but not outstanding in my opinion, they had all that was required, bath robes, slippers etc. My view from the 7th Floor looking out towards the harbour backed onto the TVNZ building with their Satellite dishes.
The staff were friendly but that was about the extent of things. Breakfast in the morning at the grill, I was left to find my own table and had to call wait staff over to order a barista made coffee (which was not included in the buffet breakfast). A staff member could have shown me to a table (they were not busy when I had breakfast at 7am) and taken my coffee order.
The buffet breakfast selection was okay. The cut up fresh fruit could have been better, half oranges, kiwi fruit and pineapple pieces, plus' a couple others but no fresh melon like other hotels in Auckland. The bacon on offer was a bit too "crispy" too. If you want a great buffet breakfast at an Auckland hotel I recommend the Cordis.
The hallway outside my room didn't look like it had been vacuumed with bits of fluff, thread on the carpet but I did see staff vacuuming the carpet! I just think they need a more powerful vacuum cleaner.
Overall I would stay again due to the convenience of the location to the NZICC but for luxury/leisure I believe Auckland has better options.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a Waikato vacation package cost?
Discover the best of Waikato from as little as ¥180,496. We offer a great selection of hotels, flights and rental cars to suit every budget and style. You can pick up even more discounts when you add some tours or activities to your vacation package.
How do I get a cheap travel package to Waikato?
One of the easiest ways to save dollars (and time) is to combine your bookings with Expedia. Hotels, flights, rental cars and activities — we've got them all. Pick and choose the combination that suits you and watch your savings pile up. Of course, a package deal is never a one-size-fits-all. That's why we offer more than 550 partner airlines and 1,000,000 hotels worldwide, which lets you customize your Waikato vacation.
What are the top hotels in Waikato?
Check out Chateau Tongariro Hotel and Novotel Tainui Hamilton. They're top picks for many travelers headed to Taupo. If Whitianga features in your travel itinerary, Peninsula Motel and Rolleston Motel Thames – Wenzel Motels are a couple of cozy options.
How far in advance should I book my Waikato vacation?
While not all air carriers advertise tickets early, it's usually possible to compare international fares on Expedia up to a year in advance. This is the time when you can nab some incredible deals. If you've left everything to the last minute, you might get lucky. Low prices sometimes appear only weeks before departure.
What does an Expedia Waikato travel package include?
From airfares and hotels to car rentals, Expedia can help you shape a Waikato package that's ideal for you. Heading away for a week or two? Give some thought to a rental car, hotel and flight bundle. If you're taking a short break, a hotel and flight deal may be more your style. Activities can also be added once you've made your booking. Our travel packages make it a breeze to plan and save.
What should I know before booking a Waikato travel package?
A travel package can be easier on the hip pocket than individually booking all you need for your escape. For example, bundle your hotels, flights and rental cars and save big. Whatever type of vacation you have in mind, you'll find a package that fits your budget.
Can I choose my airline with a Waikato Expedia vacation package?
Yes, you're in charge. Expedia has access to more than 550 airlines across the globe, so you can design your Waikato adventure according to your budget and needs.
If I'm not able to travel, can I cancel my Waikato vacation package?
Don't worry if you're rethinking your Waikato vacation package — it's possible to change or amend your booking. And if you've booked it within the last 24 hours, you may be able to do it for free. However, bookings made more than 24 hours ago may incur a fee from your hotel, airline or car rental company. We totally understand your circumstances can change suddenly, so head to our Customer Service Portal if that happens. When you're ready to make changes, we're here to help.
