Bealey Quarter
Stayed twice over the course of our holiday. Spacious clean room, as there were 3 of us the triple room was perfect. Really comfy beds and pillows and the bed linen and towels were good quality. Staff helpful also. Would stay again.

Wyndham Garden Christchurch Kilmore Street
Clean room and staff was courteous and responsive

Novotel Christchurch Airport
Great stay. Genuinely lovely and oh so quiet room (as long as you are ok with open bathrooms). We arrived after midnight and were setting off on a road trip the following morning so it was a perfect solution for us.

Drifter Christchurch
Tiny elevator and room. All digital elevator access and lack of space meant long unnecessary delays. This hotel is designed for GenZ only - this should be mentioned in hotel listing. Won’t be staying again.
