Cordis, Auckland by Langham Hospitality Group
Really loved the pool, gym and dining facilities however the rooms could do with more attention. There was dust, lights that weren't working and the room amenities needed to be re-filled i.e moisturiser and conditioner. Thankyou to all the staff who worked Christmas Day.
