Staff here are fantastic. Gave lots of advice and just so friendly. Excellent service, spotlessly clean and comfortable enabling a great night's sleep. A home away from home. Efficient free airport transport provided.

We recently spent the past few days here on the business level of the hotel. Its located a little out of town, but if you have a car this is not a problem. Our room was very clean and tidy, absolutely no issues with the room, there is no free wi-fi in the room, however it is very cheap to... More

Friendly staff and a nice room. However, pool facilities were underwhelming and a lot of building work which we were not made aware of. Restaurant not recommended. Food ok but expensive & limited. Overall, ok hotel but not good value for money compared to local motels.

We stayed here overnight after arriving at Christchurch international airport at 30 minutes past midnight. Despite the late hour there was a complementary shuttle bus which arrived quickly and hotel was very convenient for airport. On arrival at the hotel there was a large crowd of heavily intoxicated party goers but otherwise check in check out was very easy, pickup... More

I have used this hotel many times for conferences. The Conference facilities are many and varied. The accommodation is at a high level. The restaurant and bar are excellent. Location is handy for the airport. Service is high level - professional yet still family owned.

Splendid luxury. We stayed one night before an early departure. Upon checking in we received a couple of free drink vouchers for the hotel bar (which also has free wifi) so in the evening we had a glass of wine and caught up on e-mails, facebook etc. The rooms are lovely, you get a turn down service, and immaculately clean.

We chose this hotel for a night in Christchurch which we used as our starting point to explore the South Island. It was perfect--very close to the airport, top-notch accommodation, and reasonably priced. My favorite aspect is the layout of the room, which is very efficient. It's not a huge room, but even when there's three or four of you,... More

If you have a stopover for a night or even 2-3 days then this place is perfect. I stayed in the new wing which was really nice - good sized room, little desk, good tv and decent bed and bathroom. You have to pay for wi-fi which I always find annoying but the pool is good and the restaurant fairly... More

Best thing was size of room and the wonderful older driver/porter who took me to airport on free shuttle; he is a real asset to the hotel especially after the appalling check-in service we had the day before. Slow, and sloppy and once key card handed over no guidance on how to find our room in this rabbit warren. My... More
