Top North Island Hotel Reviews

Cordis, Auckland by Langham Hospitality Group

Cordis, Auckland by Langham Hospitality Group

10/10 Excellent
"Honestly the best hotel we’ve stayed at in a long time! Right away staff were friendly and attentive, they go above and beyond to make sure you feel welcome. Our room was clean and spacious, and the complimentary snacks and drinks were a nice surprise! I had an adults only vibe in mind before we arrived but the hotel was super family friendly. We called a few times for extra towels etc and they arrived within minutes, so so good! Good service goes a long way and we can’t fault our stay at all! We’ll be back for sure!"
