I have stayed a total 2 weeks back and fourth Breakfree I had a fantastic time the room is small for couples however very clean comfortable bed room clean everyday they are doing a great job the room attendant the bed is a bit higher up so you can store your luggage under it. Coffee and tea in the room the entertainment just basic NZ tv I brought my Apple TV so good internet connection so no issue there the breakfast is good but it the same thing each day so after 4 days I was so sick of it. Washing machine available with coin operated that fantastic. The only issue I had is the bathroom I am to small very hard moving around but still manageable the bonus point the price of the hotel very good which it doesn’t break your account definitely will be back next time when visiting Christchurch.

Very comfortable with great service

Comfortable room, good space and a reasonable place, while not being too far from the centre. Ash was very helpful at the front desk and he made the check in welcome and efficient. My partner and I would definitely recommend staying at this establishment.

Great location and a pleasant stay

Second time around and still is as good as it was before. For the price we paid, this has always been better than what we expected. Receptionists are helpful and so are the staff at the cafe. Location is perfect, very central to everything yet quiet at night. It is great to have onsite cafe. We booked a quad room and it suited as well.

Think airline toilet! But it is CHEAP!

Cheapest hotel accommodation in Chch! But beware you get what you pay for. Booked a standard Inner Urban Queen room for 2 nights & after locating the hotel, the next question was where to stop & unload as there is no stopping area in front. It is possible to pull into the lane on left hand side which does lead to a public open carpark but its not exactly clear. Entering thru the front entrance leads directly into the restaurant & to the reception at rear. Two smallish lifts are quickly overwhelmed when a busload of tourist arrives - take the stairs! The room entry is essentially a twin key scenario where the entry door enters a small lobby giving access to 2 separate locked rooms. Inside is a Japanese hotel size room ie. barely enough room to swing a cat! There's a tiny desk which doubles as a drinks area for tea & coffee plus a stool (not a chair). The mini fridge has milk pods & nothing else. Immediately above is a open hook rail with some clothes hangers. Think compact on a even tinier scale. The bed is not a normal bed as its at least 30cm higher than normal & suspected the frame was built by builders with a mattress plonked on top. Just enough room to get past the bed to the other side & a tiny view of the street. The LCD TV provides standard Freeview channels however avoid the streaming channels which contains a lot of buffering. The bathroom can best be described as 'airline size'. Constructed offsite as pods and craned in as a complete unit, it features a curved glass wall & curved glass sliding door which is interesting design & saves a lot of space however internally its TIGHT-AS! Inside is a toilet pushed into the corner between the vanity basin that tapers into the corner (to give enough room for the toilet). The space between shower & vanity would be 60cm on average & 2 large adults would definitely not fit. Shower has a glass sliding door that needed maintenance to free up the operation & to get it to close. There no room service so need to hang up the towels to dry & reuse. Breakfast is standard fare but cheap by NZ hotel standards. Location is good and right on doorstep to CBD, Riverside Markets & 10 minutes to Little High foodcourt.

Quirky but adequate

Nick P TripAdvisor review

Quirky but adequate accommodation in a central location. Describing as three star is pushing the envelope a little, more of a high end backpackers would be more accurate. Read reviews of tiny rooms, so booked a city view 5th floor king which featured reasonable views. Easy 24hr check in. Slightly random bathroom facilities, a very high-raised bed and limited storage. Good room service and popular restaurant, although we checked out a few different nearby cafes for dining instead. Daily happy hour at the bar and comfortable TV lounge to relax in.
