We spent three nights while on a sporting weekend in Christchurch. The room is very modern and probably the nicest we have ever stayed in. It is also very spacious and no expense has been spared in the furnishing and decorating. We loved the two huge queen beds. Netflix was a bonus. The hosts are very friendly and helpful. There were extra touches like chocolates, cookies and a very generous continental breakfast was included. There is a mall and supermarket close by. The location was superb for travel both north and south. There are plenty of great eating establishments nearby.
