BreakFree on Cashel Christchurch
Great staff and location. The reason for 4 stars is the room is so cold. Yes we went to reception yes they checked it but it just didn’t warm up

Novotel Christchurch Airport
Room was clean, organized. Closest to the airport and there are buses going downtown/the city which you can use your tap credit/debit card if you don't have the metro card (i think $3/ride) The whole hotel is clean and organized. Nice amenities. Helpful staffs and they have a luggage weighing scale ...
