Previous hotel was terrible so booked last night of stay here. Excellent room. Clean and quiet. No problems. Although first time there was a parking fee which made it a bit more expensive

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.
