It was very clean, ensuite did the job and the dining facilities were perfect. Staff and other guests were respectful of our young children. Thanks! ##### Jane Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 2 Jan 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Good location, but smells like a locker room and old and drab. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Pieter 13 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Urbanz is located in the centre of the city, so all city facilities are within walking distance. Yet, no noises from the outside world find their way inside. Kitchen is well equipped, showers and toilets are plenty and clean. Beds are comfortable. ##### Pieter Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### david 18 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort stayed here a couple times now, it’s in a great location in Christchurch, and the facility is nice, it doesn’t have the super cramped feel of a lot of hostels. If you’re near the kitchen it can get noisy early am but it’s a hostel…Staff had been very helpful as well. ##### david Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### CHIENMING 14 Mar 2023 Liked: Staff & service #### Perfect location with nice price The location is perfect. It’s very close to downtown Christchurch and room is clean . However, the air conditioner is not good enough. You need to find the parking by yourself. I was lucky to find one just right in front of Urbanz. ##### CHIENMING Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Janaya 17 Jul 2022 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Family room very run down ##### Janaya Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Victoria 18 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great Location Great location in the heart of Christchurch. Close to lots of restaurants, river n tourist spots. Only issue is the double bed is too short. My toes hung off the edge of the bed and i am 5'5\. My husband's feet hung off the bed. Other than that, room was clean n tidy, huge kitchen. ##### Victoria Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Nathan 21 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service The place is in a great location, super close to downtown, very walkable. However the room was not what we had booked, the pictures and room were quite different. the room felt very unsafe, no windows or air flow, and the small skylight was another story from the roof. Overall didnt enjoy our stay. ##### Nathan Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ko 17 Feb 2024 Did like being transferred to a quieter, larger ensuite room by very thoughtful staff. Hated initially being in the small ensuite opposite one of the main bathrooms with noisy banging doors going late into the night. This is a dud room. ##### Ko Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Kymberlie 22 Sept 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities We were quite disgusted to see someone else’s hair on our pillows upon check in. The walls are so thin you can clearly hear everything that’s going on around you and the shower I chose was broken. We were told there was free parking but it was a 10 min walk away in the rain with our belongings. We did like that it was close to a lot of bars and dining options though. ##### Kymberlie Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Philip 25 Sept 2023 The receptionist man needs lessons in communication (They had a problem with providing the required passes for car parking .) However we ultimately enjoyed our time there ( though the partitition walls were not acoustic and the fire door from the kitchen shrieked whenever it was used through the night ) ##### Philip Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ray 26 Jan 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Got refused as id got left behind was allowed to stay had to find alternative accommodation at xtra xspence and trying to get refund was bad didn’t end up receiving my 129$ complete rip off staff where rude unhelpful and disrespectful worst service ever will be takeing this as far as I can to let people know off the worst service ever shame on you ##### Ray Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Bambi 17 Nov 2023 Liked: Staff & service The staff was friendly, and the property was in a good location, and pretty clean for a hostel. The room had a harsh smell (paint/chemical), and was located next to a door for a stairwell. Every time the door closed there was a very loud click. This happened half a dozen times an hour. Knowing how loud that door is, they should have placed a storage room here instead of somewhere someone is supposed to sleep. I had earplugs in, and was still woken up by the loud click. ##### Bambi Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Club La Santa - all sports inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tinajo-Hotels-Club-La-Santa-All-Sports-Inclusive.h10481064.Hotel-Information) > > [Bernini Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Florence-Hotels-Bernini-Palace.h13999.Hotel-Information) > > [Sudima Christchurch Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-Sudima-Christchurch-Airport.h889383.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Tulley's Farm](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tulleys-Farm-Hotels.0-l553248635947277325-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Herculaneum](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Herculaneum-Hotels.0-l6184627-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Gora Hanaougi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hakone-Hotels-Gora-Hanaougi.h24051762.Hotel-Information) > > [Aparthotels Brooklyn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brooklyn-Apart-Hotels.d177851-aaApartHotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Mountain Hotels in Gran Canaria](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gran-Canaria-Hotels-Mountain-Hotel.0-0-d6047134-tmountainhotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Q Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blackpool-Hotels-The-Seacroft.h5764552.Hotel-Information) > > [TravelodgeUK Hotels in Conwy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Conwy-Hotels-Travelodge-UK.0-0-d5619--bTravelodgeUK.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Wokingham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wokingham-Hotels.d5483.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Naitly Barcelona Poblenou](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barcelona-Hotels-Capri-By-Fraser-Barcelona.h2540203.Hotel-Information) > > [Chateau on the Park - Christchurch, a DoubleTree by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-Chateau-On-The-Park-Christchurch.h19345.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Cambridge (CBG)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/cbg/glasgow-to-cambridge) > > [Flights from Newcastle-upon-Tyne (NCL) to Kidlington (OXF)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ncl/oxf/newcastle-to-oxford) > > [Flights from Liverpool (LPL) to Sydney (SYD)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lpl/syd/liverpool-to-sydney) > > [Flights from annemasse airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/airports/qnj/flights-from-annemasse-airport) > > [Flights from Barry (CWL) to Tremblay-en-France (CDG)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/cwl/cdg/cardiff-to-paris) > > [Flights from Hounslow (LHR) to Melbourne (MEL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/mel/london-to-melbourne) > > [Flights from Hounslow (LHR) to Saint-Etienne-de-Saint-Geoirs (GNB)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/gnb/london-to-grenoble) > > [Flights from Norwich (NWI) to Aberdeen (ABZ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/nwi/abz/norwich-to-aberdeen) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > [Antigua and Barbuda Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Antigua-And-Barbuda.d7.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Turriff](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Turriff.dx6166371) > > [Visit La Fortuna](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna.dx6047145) ---
