We stayed at 5 different self contained apartment during our 12 days trip in nz. This one was the only one where we had an unpleasant experience. However, I will try to give a fair review of our stay: On the positive: - Modern and clean room - Big bathtub - 5min walk to shopping center - Cheap internet rate... More

Pretty standard motel, very clean and tidy with a more modern feel than most nz motels. Very basic amenities- in fact in only noticed soap in the bathroom. Recommended for basic no-frills trips. More

My wife and I stayed at the Metropolitan during the 2011 Buskers Festival. The rooms were more spacious than other hotels we stayed at in Christchurch and the furnishings were all modern. The only thing we thought could have been better was the advertised king size bed was two twins put together. It left an uncomfortable spot in the middle.... More

On Saturday don't miss the Christchurch Farmers Market in Riccarton House (10 minutes walk) for music, good food and a pleasant walk. Although the rooms are small they... More

The women in the office was very rude and for... More

We stayed at this hotel for 4 nights on our New Zealand holiday. The rooms are very well appointed with modern decor and excellent facilities. The rooms are a little small, but very comfortable for what we wanted. Beds are very comfortable. Just down the road from the Westfields Riccarton, which suited my wife down to the ground. New managers... More
