We would definitely stay again and that’s the best recommendation you can give. Thanks.

Spot clean you could lick the floor anywhere. My room was a small one and yet felt great. Comfortable bed, great bathroom a nice big screen TV, but... I could not understand how to find my way through the multiple possibilities and the subtleties of finding the programme I wanted to watch (simply TVNZ1, the news), which eventually I could not find... small problem at all as I was too tired by the rest of the day to really watch TV.
The staff was nice, friendly, helpful, always smiling and polite while ready to share a banter or a joke.
Breakfast was good, although the buffet could do with a bit more variety. Restaurants' menu varied, all dishes I tasted were excellent, served on huge dishes that were totally full... impossible to get hungry; their personnel was efficient, always calm even during breakfast rush. Etc...
Absolutely worth the higher price of my stay.

Staff were amazing and super helpful. Checked us in early when we had been stranded in CHC . Restaurant was pretty good too for hotel food. Room was average - we had a king studio which was basic and the bathroom had mouldy grout and old dirt/ rust marks on the shower so not very nice. The rain shower was great tho.

Absolutely amazing accommodation, 10 minute walk from the center of downtown! Very clean with lots of space and a nice bathroom. My chief complaint would be that instead of a king mattress for the bed, they put together two twins, and you could feel the gap in the middle, also we found many hairs from others around such as on the bed and decorative pillows etc, even one on the toilet. Other than that this place is perfect and I will stay here again.

Conveniently situated but parking $20 - 25 a night

We picked the hotel because of its position in the city and it proved very convenient being only 10-15 minutes walk from the centre. The staff were very helpful. The only downside was that they wanted to charge $25 to park there or $20 in a car park across the road. In the event we found a space on the road outside which was free. We did not eat at the hotel.

Nice hotel, quiet and comfortable. Not much parking space on site so need to park a few minutes walk away in carpark open to the street - parking is $20 per day in either car park.

I had an amazing experience at this hotel and would highly recommend it to everyone. The staff were incredibly friendly, professional, and always ready to help, they truly made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived.
The cleanliness of the entire property was impeccable, from the rooms to the common areas. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, which made my stay even more comfortable.
One of the highlights was the excellent parking facilities, easy access, secure, and plenty of space, which is a huge plus.
If you're looking for a place that combines comfort, great service, and convenience, this is the one. I strongly advise anyone visiting the area to stay here. You won’t regret it!

Will come again

Lovely new hotel. Everything was pristine and the restaurant had delicious food. They did try and charge double for my dinner on checkout so just watch that. I’m sure it was on purpose. The bar looked really good too. Good value for money. Nice staff.

Few good things are 1. Receptionists are welcoming. 2. There are plenty of free parking around the hotel and super easy to walk to the city. The major downside of this place was that, the room was dirty from the beginning and the staff didn’t care to clean properly. Felt like they didn’t even bother vacuuming the floor. The shower had mold and toilet seat was broken. The AC vent had so much visible dust and had allergies throughout the stay. I wouldn’t personally recommend this place or going back again.

I liked the big windows and facing north. The room was very clean and the hotel too.
The room size was good, bed very comfortable and bathroom well appointed.
I thought the dining room / restaurant was very dark painted black and I didn't like that. I didn't eat on site.
I booked on site parking which was occupied by another car when I arrived back late one evening. I was tired and needed to go out early next morning.
So I was not happy about this. The Hotel should have systems in place to prevent this happening. I got a 2 day refund for my parking.
Staff were generally very helpful.
In hindsight I would have preferred a hotel closer to the CBD.

Excellent location, room was comfortable, and staff made it easy.

Only feedback was that the ironing board was weirdly very dirty and there were no plates or cutlery that we could find, just a mug and teaspoon.

If you are going to an event at the Chch town hall this is the perfect location, a very short walk.

Great place to stay close to the CBD, we easily walked to the Isaac theatre for a show. Very quiet location, no road noise.
Room was very clean and tidy with good seating - only drawback was no windows available to open.
Shower was awesome with a rain head option.
Reception were very friendly and helpful.
Offsite parking felt a bit dodgy as it’s surrounded by graffiti’d walls and very run down buildings, but vehicle was still there each morning.
The restaurant was fantastic - we had both dinner and breakfast, dinner - best steak - highly recommend.
