Holiday Inn Express delivers smart, central stays with strong value: modern rooms, fast Wi‑Fi and breakfast included. It’s a practical base for travellers who spend most waking hours outside and want to keep mornings efficient.

Planning tips
Book popular activities for early or late slots to dodge peak crowds. Keep a weather‑swap plan like Front9 or a scenic drive. If you’re working on the go, the lobby is useful for short sessions between outings.
Getting there with Ryd
Use a Ryd when distance helps—Crown Range to Wanaka, wineries, or ski roads—then drop the car and enjoy evenings on foot.
