With free WiFi, this 5-star hotel offers room service and a 24-hour front desk. The property is 1.2 km from the city centre and less than 1 km from Christchurch Art Gallery. Wow what a nice hotel. It truly feels and looks like a 5 star hotel. It was super clean and the rooms were quiet which made it feel like I was at home in my own comfort. There is a restaurant at the bottom and I highly recommend it. The chef is French and it honestly shows in the passion he puts in each plate. Great place overall
