"Great hotel in a perfect location. So central, friendly, helpful staff, room was really comfortable with great amenities. Will definitely stay here again."
"Sadly, the spa was not working and this was one of the draw cards for us. Also, we had 2 drinks charged to our room that were not ordered by us. Staff should never reveal guests names. When we did order drinks, from Our Land is Alive bar, we paid with cash. However when staff asked us for our room number, and we gave it, she replied by giving us our name which should never happen. Other than this, we do love Cordis."
"Our family of four adults stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment for 1 night. What a great stay we had. The young lady that served our drinks and dinner was really friendly and we had breakfast there and who was there was the same young lady what a trooper she is, well done gerl. We will be back. Thank you for your hospitality.
