  • 5.0/5

    Very friendly and knowledgable staff who helped us plan our long weekend in CHCH before flying home next week.

    Book through the iSite and you might save yourself a few $.

    Also the building has some really cool shops/boutiques having been restored following the earth quakes. Definitely worth a visit.
