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.

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.
