The hotel is located centrally in Christchurch, making it easy to explore the city, although some occasional furniture was uncomfortable. The service was impeccable with friendly and helpful staff, but the dining experience, while in a nice atmosphere, had slightly overcooked dishes. The rooms were spacious and situated in a fascinating building, offering en-suite bathrooms and a second bedroom. While the price was slightly high for some items, the location near historic areas and shopping was unbeatable.

The hotel offers a great mix of positives with some drawbacks. The rooms are cozy and warm upstairs but lack a bit of modern touch. The service is friendly overall but could use improvement in responsiveness. The location is central and convenient, although the property could benefit from some renovations. The dining experience is enjoyable, yet there might be room for enhancement. Good value for money considering the facilities provided.

The hotel is absolutely fabulous with cozy rooms, though a bit musty upon entering. The service is wonderful, especially the friendly and attentive front desk. Located in a brilliant spot with comfortable beds, it's a peaceful retreat away from nightlife areas. The dining is fine but not exceptional, and the facilities are top-notch.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms are incredibly well-equipped with full kitchens and even washers and dryers, making it perfect for an extended stay. The suites are spacious, featuring a 2-person couch and a 6-person dining table. The service was top-notch, with courteous staff who went out of their way to assist, though I did encounter some language barrier issues as they are technically a different company. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of the city center, ideal for exploring CBD and attractions like the Avon river. The dining experience was very enjoyable, and the facilities were impressive.

The hotel was a bit of a climb for my elderly mother, but once inside, it was a pleasant surprise. The room was spacious and original with a full kitchen and washer/dryer, making it very roomy and convenient with 2 bathrooms and a dining area. The service was top-notch, with incredibly kind and accommodating staff, especially at check-in. The location was excellent, right in the center of town, providing easy access to great eating and shopping spots. The dining experience was fantastic, particularly the 'raw breakfast' that boasted real quality ingredients. Overall, a great stay with a few minor challenges for accessibility.
