Jonathan R. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

everything was good, only issue is that the breakfast was delivered to my room and was lukewarm. Also, the roomservice meals are expensive, particularly the deserts.

Kia ora Jonathan, Thank you so much for your lovely review. It’s wonderful to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and that our team made you feel welcome your kind words mean a lot to us. I’m truly sorry that your breakfast arrived lukewarm and didn’t quite meet your expectations. Please know this isn’t the standard we aim for. I’ve already spoken with our kitchen and room service teams to ensure meals are delivered promptly and at the right temperature moving forward. I also appreciate your honest feedback about dessert pricing — it’s been shared with our culinary team for review. We’re so grateful for your support and for choosing to stay with us. I hope we’ll have the pleasure of welcoming you back again soon — and next time, we’ll make sure your breakfast is just right. Warm regards, Shriya Chimbaikar Food & Beverage Manager Novotel Christchurch Cathedral Square
