    spacious room
    central location
    sunset drinks
    noise issues
    limited breakfast options

    Location was spot-on, right by Cathedral Square with plenty of cafes and shops nearby. I loved that we could easily stroll to attractions like the Christchurch Art Gallery and Victoria Square. The rooftop bar was perfect for enjoying drinks at sunset, even though it wasn’t available during my stay. The bedroom and lounge area in the Executive Suite were spacious and comfortable. The only drawback was the noise from nearby events on the weekend, which made sleeping a bit tricky.

    minimal space
    closed bar

    i thought i’d enjoy a rooftop bar, but it was closed. as a valued guest, i totally expected an upgrade for the inconvenience, but was left disappointed. i almost felt like giving this place a good review, but just couldn’t.

    cozy room
    amazing shower
    quiet stay
    missing bottle opener

    i usually stay at bigger chain hotels, but this place really exceeded my expectations. the room was cozy and quiet, and the shower pressure was amazing. overall, it was a lovely solo stay in the city.

    no bottle opener for cold drinks.

    lovely view
    spacious room
    minimal counter space

    Superb location near the Cathedral Square made exploring a breeze! My room was gorgeous with a lovely view, spacious enough to do a little dance party—just me, of course. Quiet and peaceful, perfect for a nightcap before bed.

    But, here's a giggle, my bathroom had more charm than counter space! And, if I had an electric toothbrush, it'd probably be doing the cha-cha on the floor instead of sitting pretty in a socket.

    missing bathroom hooks

    great comfort with room for improvement

    The location was fantastic, just steps away from vibrant shops, restaurants, and cafés. The room was immaculately clean and offered a cozy atmosphere, making it a pleasure to relax after a day of exploring. The staff were exceptionally friendly, providing a warm welcome that made our stay even more enjoyable. We were also delighted to take in the city view from our room, enhancing our overall experience.

    However, a few practical amenities were missing, like sufficient hooks or shelving in the bathroom.

    great location but some amenities lacking

    The location near Cathedral Square was perfect for exploring the city, with plenty of shops and cafes within walking distance. The room was exceptionally clean and well-maintained, providing a cozy atmosphere after a day of activities. I particularly enjoyed the city view that added a lovely touch to my stay. The staff were friendly and proactive, ready to assist with anything needed.

    However, I noticed a lack of shelving and hooks in the bathroom, which would have improved the overall functionality.
