Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hotel was clean and well maintained. Also, very centrally located. But the best of all was the friendliness and professionalism of the staff. Congratulations! I will return.
Another good stay at the Carnmore. Area is a little quiet, but only a short walk to excellent cafes, restaurants and gardens. Really good value when booked well in advance.
Okay standard hotel. The buffet breakfast is very standard- in fact not worth the price. Shower was broken, and pressure was below average. Room housekeeping was a little disappointing with rooms being serviced at 2:00. Staff at check in were not very helpful and incorrectly charged up and left us with a terrible charge at the end of the stay. We were told we had breakfast included , didn’t eat there every morning but at check out were charged for each days breakfast regardless of we ate or not
Room was spotless and comfortable. Staff were like everyone in New Zealand, accommodating, knowledgeable and polite. The hotel restaurant had a buffet breakfast, but order from the menu. The waffles with caramelized bananas, berry compote and maple syrup was devine.
The hotel is clean and tidy. Room is airy. Convenient to city centre.

Excellent hotel, had a issue with card details prior to arrival but they were able to put my mind at ease for my flight. Strongly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Christchurch.
The hotel was lovely couple of hipcups with cleaning our room came back too dirtycoffee mugs .Empty shampoo bottle asked for it to be fill never was lucky i had my ownLadies on the deck where lovely friendly heplful.
This spotless and modern hotel was a 10-minute stroll to downtown and close to several cafes and restaurants (including one in the lobby). The room was spacious and, again, spotless, and the bed was super comfortable. Everything looked brand new. If you tell them ahead of time you need parking, you might score a parking spot right downstairs. Either way, the second parking lot is literally across the street. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.
