This hotel features a hot tub, a ski drying room and shared lounge and laundry facilities. I was shocked how lovely my room was for the price - I had a couch in my room and a balcony that overlooked the garden. The staff is lovely and professional - the hot tub is cozy after a long hike or drive - and the food was excellent. It was nice to cozy up next to the fire in the morning with my Magic Mushrooms bfast. Would recommend as this place bursts with charm.

Location is everything. I normally fly to Christchurch, then overnight before getting the intercity bus home the next morning. Christchurch City Hotel is the perfect location. It’s only a 7 minute walk to the bus station. The rooms are a good size, not the teensy tiny rooms of some other budget hotels nearby. Yes you can get cheaper rooms nearby, but this is the perfect stopover.
A basic budget hotel in a very central location with free car parking. Good for history lovers with lots of 1800s features still present around the building interior.
The hotel is in a good location, close to eateries, shops and bars. The staff were friendly. It's a budget hotel, however the room was fine, and the bed was comfortable. Bathroom was functional. The hotel's parking included unlimited entry and exit.
Great location for the airport and local eateries. Good budget hotel.
We stayed here for three weeks while visiting family over xmas and it had everything we needed for a good price. It was useful to have a separate bedroom from the living area and the kitchen had everything we needed to make breakfasts etc. Staff were friendly. Clothes washing and drying facilities are available, which was good for an extended stay. Location is pretty good, near lots of bus routes and about a 15-20min walk into the city centre.
Fairly close to city centre A budget hotel
Awesome budget hotel, really great location. We could walk into town easily but it is set slightly back from the shops so it was quiet. Awesome roof top deck with a view. There was street parking around the area. The staff were friendly and chill. The room exceeded our expectations, especially for the price!
