8.8/10 Excellent! (197 reviews)
Brand new property! Really nice and large room, everything was basically brand new. I booked this location based on it's proximity to the rental car office, and I was worried that it would be far from everything. NOPE! It was 2 blocks from Cathedral Square, like 1 1/2 block from the park, 2 blocks from tons of restaurants, etc. No worries on location at all! We had the buffett breakfast one day and it was really good too. (we ate at the Apron Cafe on the other day for breakfast and that was good too) Highly recommend!

Had a wonderful one nights stay at the Classic Villa. Upon arrival, our hosts told us that we were upgraded and ended up staying in one of the nicest rooms we ever seen. Very charming and warm as a proper B&B should feel. Even though the breakfast time was from 7:30 am, the hosts were up and ready before 7 to accommodate a group of guests that were leaving earlier. There was access to coffee and treats during the day. The Villa is centrally located and most attraction points in the city are within walking distance. We will definitively stay at the Villa again when visiting Christchurch.

8.8/10 Excellent! (1,002 reviews)
Had a great stay at Hotel 115! Great location, easy to get to and from the airport ans the bus stop is just around the corner. But my only issue was that I wish they were more clear online about the gym and pool access. I purposely booked this hotel for its access to a gym and pool but it wasn’t mentioned that there were limited passes available to guests to use the facility. We had to wait for other guests to finish before being able to use the gym and pool so I’m guessing there’s around 2-4 passes total for the guests to use. Other than that I had a great stay!
