Ferrymead Hotels, Christchurch

"This is a very unique property. You come in through a lavish entrance, tropical gardens, classy dining room...reflecting the fancy architectural exterior. Staff greets you at the fancy reception desk. Then you proceed upstairs to your room and WHAM. This is a rather boring, subpar room all the more contrasted by what you thought it might be. Someone put a great front on this place to attract the prey, then did not upgrade the older room section...which is somewhat the core of their business isnt it?"

"The rooms are amazing - only one thing, thought we would be offered a little bottle of milk or milk in the fridge - neither - the rest was perfect! "

"Clean, spacious, friendly staff and great location for us. "

"Very modern room. Equipped with stove, microwave, dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Close to central core and 25 minutes to airport. Would stay again!"

"We were staying last minute due to flight changes due to Dubai being closed. We paid a little more than we could have for a hotel away from the airport but we are so glad we did as it was worth every penny. James on the desk was amazing helping direct us to a shopping mall where we could get an extra suitcase now that our luggage allowance had decreased and giving us a beautiful room too! Complimentary drinks were enjoyed with a super meal in the restaurant and after a good nights sleep the breakfast was delicious as were the staff and just right to set us up for the 48 hours travel time we now have to get back to the UK. Cannot recommend this hotel highly enough!"

"Location was fine for proximity to the airport. Room was very small & smelt like feet, shower was dirty. No staff at reception, you do everything yourself when you check in. I don’t mind a basic room & wasn’t expecting anything special but overall I wouldn’t rate this place very highly at all. "

"Hôtel situé dans un quartier tranquille à 25 minutes de marche du centre ville. Chambre et salle de bain propre, restaurant sur le site. Très bon service à l’accueil et au restaurant."

"well designed and appointed room, great room service meals "
