Auckland East Reserve Hotels

"We were given a room upgrade - even so the bathroom had lights that didn't work, chipped tiles, and poor repairs in areas of the bathroom. Eight restaurant was very noisy and even though we asked for another table, the waitstaff argued that we would be too far from the food and seated us in the centre of the noisiest section of the room. The food was underwhelming and not worth the price we had to pay and the place reminded us of a scrum in a shopping centre food hall. The hype on the Cordis website sure didn't match the reality and we left after only a short while, nearly $300 out of pocket, as the overall experience was not pleasant. On the positive side, we ate in the Chandelier Lounge the following evening and had some really excellent food. The leek ash crusted lamb rump was sublime. However the crispy duck fat potatoes were not at all crispy - they were soggy and had been finished in duck fat that was just not hot enough so there was no crispy exterior and fluffy interior. The bar service in the Chandalier Lounge was also pretty average - it's all well and good to offer fancy in-house cocktails but a waste of time if you don't also cover the basics like knowing how to make a martini if a customer asks for one. Our overall experience was underwhelming and we doubt we'll come back."

"We had a night of no sleep. Visitors next to us were loud the whole night through, sitting at the pool with liquor, laughing and talking up to about 3am the morning. We had to get up at 3am to be in time for the airport, so no sleep at all. The staff did talk to them, but they did not shut up. rang the staff again, but said they are too small to confront people again. They said they will call the security. The property itself is quite run-down and old. Might be time for renovations. "

"Room was basic but comfortable - breakfast and other meals were quiet good."

"Great location for airport"

"We did not sleep well as water was dripping from the bathroom ceiling light all night."

"The property was suitable for our requirements. Clean and central to amenities. Thanks Kolmar inn"

"Excellent airport hotel! Walking distance from the rental car return and the international terminal. Clean, beautiful rooms and friendly, knowlegable staff. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat."

"This is a good option near the airport. The restaurant is open for dinner. There is very little nearby, but the shuttle to the airport is very convenient. They also use WhatsApp if you don’t have phone access. A nice large room with good TV channel select selection. The room was locking a hairdryer and there is no pool although Google states there is. "

"Fast transport from the airport to hotel"
