Thomas H. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

The bed and the shower were both excellent. However, the rooms were a bit dirty. As for the front desk staff... The afternoon and night shift person that handled my check-in was very unfriendly. Morning shift staff were the complete opposite. My Accor status was not or barely recognised in this hotel.

Dear Thomas, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback following your recent stay at Novotel Christchurch Cathedral Square. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed our central location, as well as the comfort of your bed and the quality of the shower. It is always encouraging to know that certain aspects of our guests’ stay meet expectations. However, we are truly sorry that other elements of your experience did not reflect the high standards we strive to provide. Please accept our sincere apologies for the cleanliness concerns you encountered in your room. This is certainly not the level of presentation we aim for, and your comments have been shared with our housekeeping team for immediate review and improvement. We are also disappointed to learn about your check-in experience and the inconsistency in service you received from our front desk team. Providing a warm, friendly, and professional welcome at all times is essential, and it is clear we fell short on this occasion. Your feedback has been addressed with the relevant team members to ensure this does not happen again. Furthermore, we sincerely regret that your ALL Platinum status was not properly recognised. Our loyal members are highly valued, and we apologise for any oversight in acknowledging your membership and its associated benefits. On a more positive note, we are glad that you had a pleasant interaction with our morning team and that you were satisfied with your breakfast and check-out experience. Thank you once again for your valuable feedback. It helps us identify areas where we need to improve, and we truly hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for a much more seamless and enjoyable stay. Kind regards, Joshua Guest Services Manager

We had a lovely 4 day stay at your hotel. The facilities were clean and modern (despite the somewhat odd layout of the room!) The staff were very helpful, especially Eliya who went out of her way to assist us and was a bright, happy spot in our tiring day.
