The George Christchurch

We spent 3 nights here in mid March. Free parking was great and easy. The location is excellent for walking in the park, the botanic garden, boats on the Avon and a 15 min walk to most dining and shopping. The room was very comfortable and we used the washing machine one morning. Free to use and powder available. We ate dinner one night in the bar and drinks and snacks one afternoon. The quality was really good and the service was also top notch. Definitely a great spot in Christchurch. It was fun to see the city on the rebound.

Great location. Love that the park is right there and Botanic Gardens - lovely to walk around the endless paths around the park.

The hotel is located just across the road from Hagley Park North. It’s a rather tranquil spot and the guests can benefit from the well-tended garden at the back. It takes about 15 minutes leisurely walk to get to the centre of the city, less to the botanical gardens. The reception was an informal desk on the right side of the spacious lobby. Check-in was very friendly and efficient. On the left was a bar and further down, the restaurant. Our Premium Executive Room was of good size, with large bed, plenty of seating and huge wardrobe containing the safety box. There were tea and coffee-making facilities. WiFi signal was good. Good selection of TV channels. Bathroom was of decent size with a walk-in shower and great water pressure. Bathrobes and good-quality slippers were provided. Dining room had quality menu although we decided to stick with the bar offerings. Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable and the gift of a teddy bear was a lovely touch.

An extremely nice hotel with excellent staff. We only had one night but enjoyed a wonderful meal in the restaurant and loved the turndown surprise!

First class hotel with excellent restaurant. Staff couldn’t be more helpful and friendly. Lots of little extra touches made our stay feel very special

Hotel was in a good walkable location and the room was fine with a nice size bathroom and shower, however our room was next to an adjoining room and you could literally hear EVERY SINGLE WORD coming from the people in the room next to us, even with ear plugs, as we were trying to sleep. Also, we could not get the mini split to put out heat. Service at the hotel was excellent but they need to make those walls thicker for sound proofing. It’s not what you would expect from a luxury hotel and represented a poor value for us.

A very well located hotel near the park and the Arts Centre. Very comfortable and spacious rooms. Friendly, helpful staff. Excellent restaurant!

Location is perfect, walking distance to botanical gardens, great restaurants and services. The hotel atmosphere and decor is very nice, welcome drinks on arrival and to go breakfast provided for those with early departures. The staff are very welcoming. Free laundry after 2.5 weeks of campervanning was a nice perk, and the gym has everything you could need! The king size bed was actually 2 twins pushed together, so the hump in the middle doesn’t make for the best nights sleep but if we were in a room with a different bed I wouldn’t have any complaints at all. Still highly recommend the George do your Christchurch stay.

Excellent stay - upgraded our room to the Park Suite which was well worth the money. This is our second visit and again everything was first class - Location, Service and Staff.

This is an amazing boutique hotel. Perfectly located a short walk (or handy tram ride) from the centre and on the edge of the park for tranquility. The rooms are a decent size and have everything you could want and are spotlessly clean. The turn down and housekeeping team are excellent and we loved the gift of the George Bear - a real momento from our stay. The concierge team are brilliantly helpful and very humourous. If I could improve one thing it would be to get bigger driers int he free to use laundry - but that really is nit picking!
