Top Grafton Hotel Reviews

Cordis, Auckland by Langham Hospitality Group

10/10 Excellent

"Great staycation to celebrate my sons hard work and good results from school."

Pullman Auckland Airport

10/10 Excellent

"This is a superb hotel - bedding so comfortable and the room very quiet. Its a great way to sleep of travel before driving anywhere. the ONLY criticism I have (and its a small one) is someone had let their young children into the gym on their own in the morning, and I went to reception and asked staff to deal with it but no one did. The boys were almost falling off the treadmills at high speed and should not have been unsupervised - I do wish a staff member had come up to sort it after I asked as I was worried seeing them using the equipment. They would have only been around 10 years old."

Heartland Hotel Auckland Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and comfortable with all amenities. Check in was easy, and staff were helpful in booking our transfer to the airport the following day. The breakfast buffet had a good selection of different hot items (eggs, sausage, bacon, hashbrowns), as well as cereals, yogurt, fruit, cheese, pastries, etc. Dinner the previous night was delightful. I had the dumplings, and my father had the meatballs. Both portions were adequate for us as a main course."
