Novotel Christchurch Airport
Clean, well kept room as you’d expect from a ‘exec’ style hotel. Convenient for Ubers and taxis, Spitfire restaurant area is a bit of a walk but fine for distance. Could do with a bigger movie selection on the tv. Nice to have breakfast overlooking the airport

LyLo Christchurch
This was a unique property. It reminded me of a dorm room with its own bathroom. A nice bathroom, with a big shower.

Our very late arrival was prepped in advance, and the room that greeted us was lovely in every way.

Sudima Christchurch Airport
The hotel was very good. It was convenient, great staff. Restaurant in hotel was good. Our only complaint was we were given an ADA unit which we didn’t ask for.
