Top North Island Hotel Reviews

James Cook Hotel Grand Chancellor

James Cook Hotel Grand Chancellor

8/10 Good
"Great views of harbour from the junior suite where we stayed. Lounge is right next door so great access for free snacks and non alcoholic drinks, but you do hear others going into it too. Worth it though. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Location is really good, within walking distance of everything in the city that you want to see. I would stay there again easily."
