Stephen R. W. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

The Rooms are a little tired and with an odd layout, with the sink and bathroom amenities in the main room adjacent to the bathroom itself, so not really designed for more than one person

Kia ora Stephen, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your recent stay with us. I appreciate your comments regarding our location and also your honest observations about the room layout. I am particularly sorry to hear about your experience with one of our bar team members and the information you were given regarding the bar being closed. I understand how this would have been frustrating and certainly not the experience we want our guests to have. Please accept my sincere apologies. I have personally addressed this with the team to ensure clearer communication and a more welcoming, consistent approach moving forward. Your feedback is very important to us, and I appreciate you bringing this to my attention so we can improve. I do hope we have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide you with a more seamless and enjoyable experience next time. Ngā mihi nui, Shriya Chimbaikar Food & Beverage Manager Novotel Christchurch Cathedral Square
