Novotel Christchurch Cathedral Square

Great location, clean and great food, valet parking was well worth the extra $10 as we could leave our car there as long as we liked the following day.

Location and amenities

The room cost spiked because of a local event. This is the most I paid in New Zealand over a two week period.

Location

Having to put my dest chair outside the door.

The location was great with easy access to the hop on hop off city tram which is a must. It’s an easy walk to the shopping mall and restaurants The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The staff were wonderful.

The check in and unloading of the bags was a little awkward and not convenient when it’s pouring with rain. You will get wet. They have two parking options one outside near the hotel out in the weather which cost $25 which is not ideal when raining or valet parking for $35 a night which was worth it considering it was raining. For $10 extra per night it was a no brainer and they will go and get the car and park it away whenever you want. My advise is to call reception about 10 mins beforehand so your not waiting for your vehicle. Having said this we didn’t have a choice but to take up this option as the outside parking was already full by the time we had arrived.

More cost and less value
