Cordis, Auckland by Langham Hospitality Group
Cooked breakfast was not up to much, bread was dried out, sliced kiwi fruit had not been peeled. Pool and spa pool were undergoing maintenance, but transport and entry to Auckland tepid pools was offered. Sauna and steam room were average, but beauty treatment was amazing.

Adina Apartment Hotel Auckland Britomart
Nice area to stay and walk around, dine, shop, don’t need a car although we had one so parking is expensive but safe. Great layout of premium studio. Very comfortable and we had full kitchen to cook, Woolworths was 5 min walk.
