Why do people love staying in your hotel? Genuine friendly service Comfortable Dream Beds Stunning heated rooftop pool and Jacuzzi Chuan Spa, Auckland The Club Lounge (available only with Executive Room & Suites) What is there to do in the area or on site? We have a whole section on our website about things to see & do around Auckland, from shopping and restaurant suggestions to the best cultural activities. What kind of breakfast do you offer? There is an a la carte breakfast in our elegant Lobby Lounge, or a sumptuous buffet breakfast daily at Eight restaurant (both on site). Do you offer other meals? And can you recommend good places to eat out locally? We have two restaurants on site – Eight restaurant and The Lobby Lounge. Both have a bar, but The Lobby Lounge offers a more sophisticated setting, while Eight has a family/ group focus. Eight restaurant offers buffet-style lunch and dinner based around an ‘interactive dining’ concept. There are eight kitchens, each hosted by an expert chef, offering different international cuisines. You can ask for your selections to be prepared to order. The elegant Lobby Lounge offers a la carte breakfast, lunch and dinner, and a selection of tea, coffee, wines, cocktails etc. It also serves our popular signature High Tea by Cordis daily. Which are your most popular room types, and why? My favourite would be the Executive Room. It offers full Club Privileges including daily breakfast, evening drinks and canapés and afternoon tea snacks, all served in The Club Lounge. What facilities do you have for children and can you fit extra beds in your rooms? We have a Kids programme called Cordis Kids offered by all Cordis Hotels in The Langham Hospitality Group. Kids 12 and under receive a complimentary Cordis, Auckland backpack on arrival, with a welcome Cordis gift and slippers, a Kiwi-inspired colouring pack, a fun scavenger hunt activity and more.
