BreakFree on Cashel Christchurch

8/10 Good

"X"

Carnmore Hotel Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was very comfortable and the entire hotel was very clean. The building itself is very modern and looks almost brand new. We really liked the attached restaurant/bar as well. We received excellent and helpful service at both the hotel and the restaurant. For us, the location worked very well and allowed us to walk to many areas for shopping, dining and even the Botanical Gardens. The city itself is beautiful with many artistic features and murals, stunning architecture and beautiful gardens."

Chateau on the Park - Christchurch, a DoubleTree by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is across the street from the huge, beautiful Hagley Park and Botanic Gardens and in a nice neighborhood with many restaurants within a couple of blocks walk. It is a top tier yet affordable hotel. The breakfast was the nicest hotel breakfast I have ever had. I have a dairy restriction and this breakfast is very accommodating. The gardens are beautiful in the spring! The rooms were comfortable, clean and quiet. Parking was easy and free. We stayed here at both the beginning and end of our road trip around the south island. I would exclusively stay here any time I return to Christchurch!"
