We stayed here ahead of all the troubles and it felt so luxurious! Great service, and they allowed a slightly late check out. Would recommend. More

Perhaps naively, I expected Christchurch to be less damaged (and hurt) than it actually is, one year after the second earthquake struck. However, I didn't see the various pit props and damaged areas within the hotel as being problems, although I do think that it is poor to be advertising a pool when there is no hope of one being...

The Chateau on the Park is an upscale hotel directly across from the great central park in downtown Christchurch. It did suffer some damage from the recent earthquakes but they are maintaining a high level of service. The staff were friendly and efficient. Our room, though not large, was well kept. The nice furnishings were not new but were in... More

Spent one night here in Dec, the day a couple of dream 5.5 quakes rolled through. When we arrived, the staff were shaken, but still tbere and working.
