I spent two nights here in May 2024, attending a conference at the Chateau on the Park hotel which is right across the road. I enjoyed my stay. The room was tidy and mostly modern with all the usual amenities (kitchenette, microwave, iron, ironing board, TV etc). The only drawback is that the hotel is located on a busy corner and there was some traffic noise (but not major). If you have a car, the hotel is a good location for the central city as it has a carpark and is a just a few minutes' drive to the city. However, it's also a very nice walk into the city across Hagley Park - maybe about 20 minutes or so, depending on how fast you walk. By car it's only about 10-15 minutes to the airport, depending on the time of day. Riccarton Road is just a couple of minutes' walk away with plenty of shops, restaurants, take-aways etc. I will definitely look at staying here when returning to Christchurch.
