Staff we met were excellent, good food and good location.
Pros:

The few staff members we met "face to face" were excellent, they were warm, polite, helpful and hardworking. The room was well appointed and had all the functional necessities. The Hotel was in a good location for access to/from Christchurch City Centre, Train Station and airport. The restaurant food was very good with a good selection of beverages.

Cons:

Basic WiFi did keep disconnecting. Some basic written instructions on devices and controls ie air-con and the bathroom heated floor would be helpful.

This is a beautiful hotel with friendly staff.
Ample parking and we found the breakfast to be super!
We wouldn't mind staying there again.
