A lovely base for our 2 nights in Christchurch city centre. There is a (paid) car park but we managed to find free car parking on the street outside. Excellent front-desk customer service & room was really nice & comfortable! Approx 15 min walk to gardens & cathedral & the town centre. Was very good value for the price I paid , would highly recomend!

We enjoyed our stay, the room was very clean and they even decorated it for us in honor of our honeymoon. We paid in advance for parking at the hotel, and someone was in our spot, so they directed us to another spot reserved for contractors. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to others!
