We couldn’t have had a better start of our time in New Zealand. The hotel is wonderful, very nice and clean room. it has everything you need. the staff though is outstanding. We want to give a very big shoutout to Alana from reception and Niki from The Lane, where we had amazing breakfast. The staff is what made our stay so wonderful. Thanks so much! We just came back after 5 weeks of traveling just to have breakfast again and say hi. Hopefully we will see you again!

We’ve stayed here before and loved the price for a private room and location! It’s a great affordable place to stay when visiting Christchurch! We had an early flight on departure day so having the car park access near by was super handy for us and cheap rates for that parking or you could park further away on the street for free. The church pub and Mexican restaurant down the street is also handy for a drink or late night eat! The shared bathrooms were always clean and showers got nice and hot!
