The George Christchurch

A great Hotel in a wonderful location next to Hagley Park. it was convenient to the centre of Christchurch. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was very good as was the meal we had in the restaurant in the evening. The cheese scones at the bar were excellent.

We enjoyed The George quite a bit and would return. Rooms are very stylish and comfortable, although a little smaller than we were expecting given the photos online. Service was terrific. Parking was astonishingly easy for a city hotel. The onsite, free laundry was very much appreciated. My husband said breakfast was good, but I didn't want to spend so much because I am not a big breakfast eater. There is nowhere very close by to just get a coffee. I wish there had been an option for a small breakfast at the hotel.

An amazing night out. Staff attentive, menu small but perfect variety. Meals were all presented beautifully and tasted very good. The handmade ravioli perfect as to the lamb. We ordered sides … but not really needed. Seasonal vegetables a hit. The salad probably too oily in its dressing - but a hit cos of the roasted walnuts! Amazing crunch! Puddings beautiful and not a let down! But using my arcane system of grading??? The clincher was the really well maintained toilets with spare rolls artfully arranged in each stall. An attention to detail that speaks volumes about the staff and the standard set. Very well done!

We found our stay to be perfect in every way. Location is opposite the Botanical Gardens (great place to walk), near CBD, shopping and many good restaurant choices. Hotel is modern and comfortable, room we stayed in was a Park Suite (good size, plenty of natural light, excellent bathroom, excellent storage space and comfortable lounge area) Breakfast was very good with multiple choices and good friendly service. Laundry area was excellent and free, 2 washers/3 dryers. Turndown service was appreciated and the addition of “George the bear” kept us smiling, throughout our stay. Restaurant was very good and dishes also available in lounge (great tastes) Everything about this hotel is quality and best of all are the people that work there, they make your stay special. The George will be our 1st choice when we next return to Christchurch, see you soon.

This is very nice hotel in Christchurch - rooms were spacious and well equipped. Very luxurious overall. Staff very friendly - we arrived early and our room was ready - they had umbrellas for us as it was raining that day - near a Tram stop - but really within walking distance of most of the things we were interested in. Breakfast was very nice - quick ride to the airport - overall highly recommended.

The biggest and best asset at the George are the staff, from the moment you walk in the door they go out of their way to ensure you are treated special and they personally want you to have the best time possible, so refreshing to be treated as a valuable customer. The George is a home away from home. I always am made to feel like I am one of their family. Brilliant every stay is memorable,

Everything was exceptional and wonderful! The staff were very excellent and attentive. The food at the restaurant was most delicious! The location was perfect for the plans I had for the days I stayed. It is also in walking distance to the Botanical Garden, which was wonderful, as this way I was able to still go there even though I arrived pretty late at the hotel.

Great hotel! Great food! Guest laundry machines for complimentary use! Only a half glass shower wall, creating water flow on floor. Small bathroom counter space. Otherwise very comfortable room! And free teddy bear & chocolate each night!

The George is a wonderful place to stay in Christchurch, ideally located just minutes from the city center and the Botanical Gardens. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and beautifully appointed, offering a relaxing place to unwind after a day of exploring. The highlight of our stay was the restaurant. Both the service and the food were exceptional—each dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented, making for a truly memorable dining experience. One small touch that stood out was the turn-down service on our first evening, when housekeeping left a charming teddy bear in our room—a simple but delightful detail that made the stay feel especially warm and personal. The George is an elegant boutique hotel that delivers both comfort and quality. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Christchurch.

I stayed at the George after three weeks of continuous excursions rarely sleeping in the same bed twice. I chose this for proximity to Hagley park/Botanical Gardens and you should as well. The location is superb, the staff was very friendly (OK most people in New Zealand seem to fit this bill) and very accommodating. The bed was the best I slept in the whole trip.
