The experience was well worth 5 stars. The staff were friendly and efficient. The hotel set up is lovely- from the gym to the outside seating are by the fire. The restaurant food was really nice and they kindly accommodated requests for special diets. The service in the restaurant is top notch. The bed was nice and big, very comfortable.... More

One of very few hotels left in Christchurch but a good one none the less. The staff were very helpful and effiecient when checking out. The room was clean, tidy and most importanatly quiet. As the name would suggest close to the airport and a free shuttle which suited my needs catching the red eye back to auckland. Will look... More

From the initial email contacts, to the warm and friendly welcome on arrival, right through to the moment we left (for the second time!), the service we received from everyone associated with the hotel was simply outstanding! This was the final night of our 3 week tour of NZ - the majority of which was spent in a campervan -... More

We would not normally stay in a hotel this far away from the centre of town, however this is a good choice at a time when choice will be limited for some time to come due to the earthquake. Its very handy to the airport and only 15 minutes drive from the city centre. Our room was quiet and comfortable... More

In Christchurch we always stay at the Commodore. Stayed twice, for a total of 11 days, in our recent 5 week trip to NZ. Very conveniently situated and well away from the dust of the post-quake demolitions in the city. The staff are always so friendly and helpful. Everywhere is spotless and there's a great range of room layouts to... More

This is our second visit to this hotel and we were not disappointed. Since our last visit a beautiful outdoor seating area with gas fire and large television screen had been installed. Our room was quiet and with wonderful heavy curtaining we were not woken at first light. With breakfast served until 10.30am and check out at 11am it meant... More

This is a very good hotel, with very kind and helpful service and comfortable rooms. The food was good too. I wish we could stay there more. I think this is the best hotel we've been to in the South Island. More

Used the hotel as a base for 3 nights for touring the area. Large and comfortable room on the ground floor by the main staircase but no real noise. Only negative was the room looked out on a dark garden area and there was little natural light. We ate both in the restaurant and the bar area and along with... More

Having visited Christchurch briefly earlier, we did not need to use this hotel as a base for exploring the city. It was, however, very convenient for the airport, when leaving New Zealand for Australia. Standard city hotel which was very comfortable. The swimming pool area was quite cold and we could not make the spa pool work, but may be... More
