About half an hour drive. I almost suspected that there was a hotel in the area where I did not see any houses. Then this hotel showed up. What a pleasant surprise to find thus fine hotel with beautiful garden which I think was comparable to the Botanic garden we went to the day after. The roses were gorgeous. We took quite some pictures in the garden the second day. Definitely a must see on the way to the east of Christchurch! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b01936e6-932d-4489-9598-24c699fbcb00-1767450468551.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b370ff5e-5d20-4bf5-9eb0-e48191a9f594-1767450467225.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/97fbe9fb-cb96-4fc1-846d-3528fa7cfd65-1767450469442.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d928dfe5-2231-447d-b6c0-7b900383d05e-1767450469398.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Zhaodi Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kate 27 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Absolutely amazing stay!
