My review goes back to before the earthquake and we wish everyone well. To continue .... After touring NZ for a month, we arrived here, travel stained and weary. I had a few days growth of stubble, we were hot and dusty, and the beatup hire Nissan was filthy and smelly. Nevertheless the car park staff attended us as if... More

I stayed here in 2010 when I visited New Zealand with my wife. As a special gesture for honeymoon couples, they gave me a complimentary upgrade to the special suites. Welcomed us with flowers, chocolates and complimentary drinks. The bed was beautifully decorated and the service at all times was magnificent. Best part of the hotel is its location. Right... More

We went here for our honey moon, the room was huge. We arrived the day after an earthquake and at one point actually had to evacuated. Throughout the whole process the staff were calm and collected, they fetched us from our room and took us to a safe building next door. They continued to provide breakfast while the after shocks...

Stayed here on my trip from Australia. Well I guess was lucky to visit before the earthquake hit last year,well just after the first one hit it actually when there was no major damage. booked a 2 bedroom suit in the old wing which has a very charming look. Well the inside is not really up to scratch-very very noisy... More

We chose this hotel for the central location as we wanted to be able to recover from the long haul flight and see Christchurch before setting off to see the rest of the country. The staff were great and took our luggage as we arrived in the morning and rooms weren't ready. We were really pleased to be told we'd... More

Beautiful hotel, in a beautiful city, and a great location. The staff were great, the room was lovely and the hotel is right in the middle of Christchurch. Fortunately we visited before the Earthquake. The hotel was right in the CBD were the earthquake struck worst, so I can't say how up to date the review is.

It was well eqipped but there was no air conditioning and the couches, chairs, carpets, etc were stained and had seen better days. Whilst it's... More

I'm a regular at the Heritage, I rate this as the best business client hotel in central Christchurch. I'm routinely upgraded, the front desk staff are excellent, check-in and check-out fast and efficient. Rooms on the lower levels can be noisy which is a problem for all inner city hotels. Above all, the staff at the Heritage make the difference... More

Fabulous location and lovely staff. Can't moan and groan too much but I wish I had known that the "suites" were located only 3 levels high. I had read reviews already about this hotel having the usual yahoos and hooligans/boy racers on the weekends (as with any inner city hotel) but never expected it to be this bad. If you... More
