First time in Christchurch so the easy and central location of the hotel was the first plus. Everything was as expected- clean and quiet room and lot of towels. The bathroom was very clean also. Parking was safe. Breakfast had lot of choices and the poached eggs and hash browns were very good. Will recommend this hotel to my friends and family.

The hotel is walkable to the center shopping area with restaurant choices.. easy to get tours and taxi or shuttle service. The restaurant has a decent breakfast, but the lunch and dinner are very good.. the room was clean, but I don’t like carpeting and that could probably be updated and the bed I thought needed a new mattress.. but it was still comfortable. They do have a laundry room and a small gym so it was a good stay overall and reasonably priced.
