Rare cwtravel Posted August 19, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Hi- I did not stay at the Crowne Plaza prior to my March cruise but it looked like an easy/fairly short walk, and most, if not all of the walk is downhill from the hotel to where the ship docks.

susie2shoes Posted August 19, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Cruising from Aukland in November. Does anyone know how far it is to the cruise port from the Crowne Plaza at 128 Albert St.? Walkable?Thanks. Yes we have stayed there. You could roll your suitcases down to the dock but we paid the taxi driver $10 and that was much easier! From memory it was 5 or 6 blocks downhill, quite steep in some places. Would all depend on how much luggage you had too and how mobile you are. Hope this helps!

Flipper133 Posted August 19, 2014 #5 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Here is a Google Earth grab I did for our Roll Call mob that shows location of certain Auk Hotels. You can see where the Crowne Plaza is...up past the Tower. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizziedi Posted August 25, 2014 #8 Share Posted August 25, 2014 We stay at the Crowne Plaza when in Auckland. We get a taxi. Actually, the Corporate Taxis wait at the Crowne - no extra charge but nicer than the average cab;) I wouldn't walk down to the ship from there with luggage - downhill but ...
