One of my favourite hotels

The location is ideal and the staff could not have been any more helpful. The restaurant has a great selection of choices and the breakfast buffet was enjoyed by my husband while I had a huge custom made Omelette.I am here 3 days to speak at the New Zealand Lavender conference and will come back to the Distinction next January when I return to NZ

Average hotel, certainly not 4 star. Front desk couldn't be bothered with answering the simplest of questions.
Room service stated that they could not deliver to our room for an hour and a half.

One of the staff at Reception by name of Mila was very helpful. She went out of her way to explain things, including suggestion for dining options, printed list of hotel room service in case we were too tired to venture out. Hotel was very central to tram rides, shopping and dining.
5.0
Very near to dining places such as Sakimoto an authentic Japanese restaurant at Cathedral Junction. Hotel had friendly staff. Breakfast at surcharge was good.

It was spacious and very nice. Great central location, we could walk around CBD area easily.

The corner room was awesome, too bad it looked over the construction site that is in process of rebuilding the Christchurch church. Bathroom had space for toilet bags. Small frig was a nice touch. Microwave would have been helpful. Hotel close to food, museums, etc

It was a wonderful stay in this excellent property. We were just finishing 10 days in a campervan, so it was just what the family ordered! Comfortable beds!

Dry nice- great location!
4.0
Rather austere facility. Room was unexceptional but bedding was comfortable. In-hotel restaurant was forgetable. Close to Tramway Cable Car Diner. Unfortunately, at time of stay Christchurch was under renovation (I'll swear it was the whole town!) So experience was tainted.

The front desk attendants are the best.

We had a nice suite that was fine, if not a tiny bit tired looking. I’m disappointed that others in my group had breakfast included in their booking but because I used Hoteks.com that wasn’t an option, as the buffet breakfast was $35 a person (and not worth that).
The hotel was close to many restaurants, which was a bonus. But most of them seem to have very limited hours. Some closed at 6:00 or 6:30 p.m. and others not open for breakfast.

Nice new property in a great location where we could walk to all the downtown sights and restaurants. The staff was very courteous and the manager on duty happily arranged for a cab to transport us to the train station. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the hotel and would highly recommend it for a downtown Christchurch visit.

4.0
Valet parking only but the staff were generally nice and helpful. I was surprised at how they kept providing insufficient towels or coffee mugs even though we had four guests in the room.
The room and facility were a bit old especially the bathroom definitely needs an upgrade.
5.0
Love this place. Got the family suite at a very decent price. The place was well connected and short walk to food options.
5.0
Ten stars! A home away from home. Attractive quiet room and big comfy bed for a great night's sleep. Clean modern bathroom and shower. Restaurant right downstairs as good as any along the river. Best of all, quiet not noisy ambience. Great location by the Cathedral only 5-10 minute walk to the Riverfront District and the Botanic Garden. All staff members informative and radiating the Kia Ora spirit. Thank you Christchurch.

We stayed here twice in the last month in a Classic Junior Suite. Huge room, lovely hotel and staff and so central to walk to everything.
We will be back.
