훌륭한 조식과 편안한 공간
Pros:

조식이 기대 이상으로 정말 훌륭해서 깜짝 놀랐습니다! 조식 시간 외에도 물과 과일을 준비해주셔서 편하게 먹을 수 있었고, 직원분들은 매우 친절했습니다. 객실은 정말 아름다웠고, 집안 곳곳에 세심하게 신경 쓴 디테일이 많아 둘러보는 내내 만족스러웠습니다.
부모님과 함께 여행 중이라 1층 객실을 요청드렸는데, 요청을 잘 들어주셔서 정말 감사했습니다! :)

Cons:

다만 방음이 조금 아쉬웠습니다. 바닥을 걸을 때마다 소리가 나서 옆방을 깨울까 걱정이 되었어요.

Comfortable stay in a fabulous location. Easy to travel to.
Pros:

It was so nice to spend a day out then come back to make a hot drink in the kitchen and sit in the spacious, comfortable lounge. The outside area looked good too. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The room was quite small, and difficult to manage 2 large suitcases. Cabin bag size would work well.
The bathroom was quite small. Shower was very good.

B&B done the right way in Christchurch
Pros:

The property is a wonderful B&B, the way they used to be: comfortable bedrooms, an open and welcoming common area, lovely grounds, and of course, a bountiful breakfast. The staff did everything they could to make us feel welcome and happy -- but in a gracious, unobtrusive manner. Finally, the Classic Villa is within a short walk of the city center and its beautiful parks.

Cons:

Liked everything about the property; no complaints.

Extravagant boutique hotel with many amazing extra touches
Pros:

Hosts were welcoming and friendly. Location was central to town and I could walk to the Riverside Market and to the Scott monument. Historic property was extremely well presented and had lovely touches eg port trolley in the foyer was complimentary. Continental breakfast was fresh and tasty. Gardens are beautifully kept. Liked reading about the history of the building.

Cons:

I liked everything! The place was immaculate.
