Beautiful hotel if out of the way

Nice hotel with lovely gardens. Out of the way and shuttle has inconvenient hours (first leaves hotel at 10:30 and last time back is 4:30). Be prepared to walk the 30 minutes from the city centre or to get an uber if you're interests are more city-focused. Also check with any tour operators ,because some do not pick up at the hotel because it is out of the way. Food was good, service was great, but not the place for you if you want to be in the CBD.

This is a great place to stay in Christchurch near the botanical gardens and a lovely walk to the city center. I wish we could have taken advantage of the included breakfast on our last day but our flights were changed and we had to depart before it opened. Friendly staff and wonderful warm cookies. The rooms are a little dated and there was some rubbish that was not picked up for a period of time. I would definitely stay here again

Friendly staff, beautiful gardens and nice and peaceful. The hotel is quite dated and beds too soft. There was an off-putting chlorine or bleach smell when you entered the hotel. Overall, it was a pleasant stay.
