This hotel was right across the street from Hagley Park and the Botanical Gardens. It was a lovely hotel with very nice, large rooms with balconies or private balconies looking out onto beautiful gardens and pool. The garden area was exceptional more

A lovely relaxing room Serve was excellent, room was lovely, no complaints more

Easy to get to from Christchurch airport. Quiet location with impressive gardens. Fairly standard hotel but the décor in our room was tired and dated. Very comfortable bed though. We made the wrong decision to have the continental breakfast – it was expensive and there wasn’t much choice. Highlight of the visit was meeting Gary the resident cat who uses... more

This is an older hotel but it is an interesting building, set in beautiful gardens. Many of the rooms open onto the gardens. My son and husband enjoyed the pool and spa and I went for a walk in the park opposite the hotel. Breakfast was included in our package and was another highlight. The hotel had little extras like... more

Central to Hagley Park and easy access to the airport. Nice grounds although some friends found the fountain which the building is built around rather depressing on a rainy day. Breakfast OK. The same lumps of flaked paintwork were on the corridor and stair carpet after 3 days, they were just ground up more and more each day as folk... more

Stayed 2 nights at start and again at end of group tour of South Island. Hotel is 20 mins walk across Hagley Park to city centre. Spacious, well equipped room; bathroom with tub; decent, reasonable restaurant. Public areas a bit of a maze and rather dated, but beautiful gardens. In summary: a decent place to stay for a good night’s... more

The hotel is quietly situated in a residential area 30 minutes walk to Christchurch centre. The grounds and gardens are well stocked and looked after. However the same effort shown with the gardens cannot be said about the interior of this hotel, I had to ask for a change of room, the original I was allocated smelled of stale tobacco,... more

This hotel was very well placed for the holiday start (1 night) and end (2 nights) of our time in the south island as it is an easy 10 minute drive Christchurch Airport. You can walk into the city centre (about 30 mins), but the hotel runs a free shuttle until about 7.45 pm. Our rooms looked inwards, so there... more

I really enjoyed my stay at the Chateau on the Park. I found the staff quite helpful and the building was very nice. The furnishings in our room were a bit dated, but the beds were very comfortable, and the bathroom was great. Large tub with jets and a huge walk in shower. Another nice thing about our room, it... more
