We loved the location 😊 it was all clean and welcoming. Loved the family room but sadly wasnt told about it which would of been nice at.check in. We also would of loved some cultery and plates as we were traveling with a little one, you provided it apon request which was nice. The heat pump in our room needed filters cleaned, when we put it on heating it smelt horrible.

Please note the hotel now charges for parking. I would have stayed elsewhere had I known this when I booked. Also, the hotel doesn't offer a broad selection of TV channels as many other places I've stayed do. For these two reasons, I found the accommodation overpriced. I've stayed at many other places in Christchurch with better amenities and free parking. But there is a bar and restaurant on site so if that's the most important criteria, then it's probably fine for you. The hotel staff are excellent, friendly, and helpful.

Very nice hotel with a good breakfast buffet. Clean, spacious rooms and bathroom. We didn’t try the restaurant for dinner. Very nice location and easy to get to different areas of the city. Wish we had stayed in Christchurch and this hotel longer. Staff was very nice and helpful.

This property is not about 5-10 minutes walk away from the city center which suits some people who doesn't like crowd. The staff are friendly and helpful. This property offers a laundry room where guests can use. One thing that bother me is my room is facing the street, since the windows of my room can be opened, the sound proof of it is a bit off. I was waken up every morning around 6am because a truck was parked downstairs and was doing some operations which causes lots of noise.
