House of Travel - Northlink: Reviews
Fantastic experience: She is AMAZING!!!!!!! She listened to our needs and worked us out as a family very quickly. She was exstremely friendly and gave us options which we really appreciated. Kirsty was quick to respond and I couldn't have asked for better service. She has made travel easy. I have never used a travel agent before but that has changed. I will not travel again unless it's through Kirsty.

Fantastic experience: A great team! We walked in and were immediately greeted and directed to an available agent. Brigitta was so helpful. We knew exactly what we wanted to book, and she got to work sorting everything out. Isabella needed to finish the payment, and she dropped what she was doing to assist. They are a very proactive and solution orientated team who work well together. Highly recommend!

Hi Barry, thanks so much for the positive feedback.
Negative experience: Rubbish House of travel. They don’t even deserve a single star. This is the first time that happened to me. Booked a flexi fare flight 4 months ago and detailing that I need a visa to go to Australia. Paid full in advance too! We should be flying today but couldn’t. Trusting them as ticketing agency that they know what they are doing. Miscommunication is their specialty! I had applied for my visa too late due to miscommunications. Casual sorry and charging us more with the flexi rate paid. Very disappointed ☹️
Hi Debbie and Thomas, thanks for taking the time to post a review. As you have stated we did advise you in writing when you booked that you needed a visa for Australia as you were travelling on a Philippine Passport. We were sorry to hear that you were unable to obtain your visa in time to travel and we have advised you of the options to change your tickets. If you wish to discuss this further please don't hesitate to contact me. Stacey Mullinger - Owner Operator.
Fantastic experience: Very helpful consultant, prepared to help with options. Thank you Isabella.
Fantastic experience: Brigitta arranged our trip to the UK and Europe. Our holiday was amazing and worry free due to the itinerary that Brigitta had arranged. We would highly recommend using House of Travel (Northlink) and look forward to our next trip. Ralph and Julie
Fantastic experience: I have dealt with Brigitta Moore at House of Travel Northlink for 20 plus years. She is absolutely fantastic and a lovely person, she has organized some wonderful holidays for my family and I. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Fantastic experience: Usually we are very specific in our requirements. Time is taken to understand these and meet our requirements. Not always easy as we are not just book us on a cruise travelers
Fantastic experience: Once again we contacted House of Travel Northlands and Briggata Moore to return to NZ. As always she takes our wishes and makes them come true.she has taken us Around the world and back and forth from the USA to NZ many times. A wonderful company and a brilliant agent!
Hi Randy, thanks so much for the review, so nice to hear such positive feedback, Brigitta sure is one in a million!
Negative experience: Rung them to ask about cook Island said I had to come in and see them and they couldn't answer any questions .
Hi Michelle, travel in incredibly complex at the moment and we do request that customers take the time to sit with us and plan their travel. That way we can advise on the exact requirements for your trip. We also offer phone and zoom consultations. Sorry the experience you received was not as expected. Stacey.
Negative experience: Rubbish customer service! They don't even deserve a single star! All she wants is to add more money on top of the ticket price; otherwise, can't be bothered to talk to us at all.
Hi FeiWe’re really saddened to have received a one star review due to factors that were outside of our control.Regrettably Air New Zealand, as well as multiple other airlines worldwide, cancelled flights and had continuous disruptions to their networks due to the ongoing impact of Covid19 and staff shortages.When your flights were cancelled, our team worked hard to secure a credit for your cancelled trip. I understand you have now used your credit directly with Air New Zealand so wish you an enjoyable holiday.Thanks, Stacey (Owner/Operator HOT Northlink)
Negative experience: Terrible customer service felt like she couldnt be bothered didnt show me any options or photos of accomadation .seemed like she wanted to get rid of me very disappointed. Said she will send me an email still no link to accomadation for me to even view .ended up booking our own $1000 less than Sarah's quote . Will not be booking with them for my next trip
Hi Jo. Thanks for your feedback. I have spoken with Sarah and we apologise that you felt this way. Our customer experience is very important to us and we never like disappointing anyone. Unfortunately it appears that we may have misunderstood your requirements, Sarah provided you with a quote and understood that you intended to book your travel yourself online. I am pleased that you have booked your holiday. Safe travels.
Fantastic experience: Great staff, I have visited here many times over the years and they are great!!
Thanks for the Feedback Chris. Always lovely to see you instore.
Fantastic experience: Awesome team, extremely helpful and always going that extra mile!
Negative experience: House of Trouble. Rubbish customer service served up with a generous "couldn't care less" attitude. A missed detail which should have been picked up by people who do this everyday. Admittedly we also missed this but foolishly trusted the "professionals" This is the second time we've had issues with a HOT branch. Holy heck I just noticed that these clowns couldn't even arrange our airport transfers to and from the correct hotel.
We are sorry to hear your experience with House of Travel Northlands has fallen short of your expectations. We will investigate the issues you had with your transfers as the operator was advised of the hotel details you gave us.If you would like to discuss your experience in further detail we would be very happy to do so.Stacey Mullinger (Owner Operator)
Fantastic experience: Good place for buy some holiday plans
Positive experience: Very friendly, very helpful, well organised.
Positive experience: Why go anywhere else
Fantastic experience: The people were great, lovely resort
Fantastic experience: Go put of their way to fulfill customers travel requirements. Great staff !!!
Negative experience: Lazy staff did not do more for us only arranaged airport transfers 1 way at Singapore we have to find our own way back to airport when we fly out. Waste of $7000 FOR this holiday
We are sorry to hear your experience with House of Travel Northlands has fallen short of your expectations. The stopover program you booked with Singapore Airlines includes a one way transfer and we recommend taxi's going back as they are a lot cheaper then booking a transfer.If you would like to discuss your experience in further detail we would be very happy to do so.Stacey Mullinger (Owner Operator)
