We had a great 5 night stay at Rosie’s. The studio is small but the covered deck doubles the size. As a couple it was plenty big enough. The shower water pressure was a treat and made me wonder about our pressure at home?? The shower was superb after a day of walking. The location cannot be beaten if you like walking. The Governor’s Bay, Diamond Head and Lyttleton coastal trails are all very close. All are incredibly picturesque. The Governor’s Bay trail is literally at the doorstep and makes it a very pleasant 20 minute walk down to the Hotel for dinner (also highly recommended). On that same trail is the Ohinetahi Garden and sculpture collection, well worth a visit. Another great thing about the location is that it’s 15 minutes to Lyttleton which has more tempting places to eat than we had time to visit. I would highly recommend Rosie’s as an alternative to staying in the city on a visit to Christchurch.
