The Mayfair

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4.8 if I could!) We had a really great stay at The Mayfair. The room was excellent — comfortable, well-appointed, and exactly what you hope for when you check into a quality hotel. Where things slipped a little was with the lamb at dinner. It was a nice dish, but definitely would’ve benefited from a steak knife as it was on the tougher side. A small detail, but one that stood out. That said, the staff were absolutely fantastic — super friendly, welcoming, and genuinely accommodating throughout our stay. If I could give 4.8 stars, I absolutely would. Still a strong recommendation from me — definitely worth staying here!

A question I ask myself is what makes a hotel 4 or 5 stars. Both will need to be above basic level accomodation.||I would describe this hotel as good four star. Its clean its modern staff are competent etc. ||I would liken it to a novotel in quality.||Compare that to actual 5 star. A recent ecperience involved champagne on arrival. Another the staff all memorised my name. Another had a string quartet. Luxury and thus five star means more than just a clean room with a comfortable bed.||The hotel is a smidge out of the centre of town but Ubers are plentiful.

Rooms were very clean and up-to-date with modern times. Bed was comfortable. Service was excellent from every staff member we interacted with, whether at the front desk or restaurant. Food and drinks were decent. Overall would recommend and I would consider coming back again in the future

Good, but definitely not a five star hotel and experience! The rooms are clean, comfy, and very spacious; but the hotel falls short of a five star experience. I stayed here for 2 nights following the last leg of my honeymoon throughout the South Island - so we had quite a bit of luggage with us. Upon check-in, there was no offer of help with luggage to bring to the room…I had to ask to use the luggage cart and personally had to unload all our luggage and haul it up to the room! Also, we had a car with us and was assigned self serve parking - when parking our car our assigned spot was taken by another car and it was quite a churn to have the front desk explain that our assigned spot was taken and we needed a new parking spot. With this kind of service as well as lack of amenities like a gym, I left it was quite lacking for what claims to be a five star hotel. However, rooms are nice and the housekeeping is very friendly. It was overall a good stay but definitely not five star!!

This place is about a 20 min walk to the center of Christchurch. Fairly close to the large park, but views are basically over the surrounding neighborhoods. Nice rooms, very friendly service. Breakfasts are great! The cafe also gets many walk in customers from the nearby areas, for their excellent pastries and hot breakfasts.

Quite a nice modern hotel. Breakfast is a bit of a disaster because if you don't book early enough, you can't have breakfast here plus the breakfast area is too small. Even though we paid for a bed and breakfast rate on the day we booked early enough they decided we had to buy orange juice because breakfast only includes one drink which seems really odd for a five-star hotel. When I checked out they also tried to charge me for the breakfast coffees that were already included in the rate. The dining area is very pleasantly done and the decor and design are lovely. The rooms are very nicely finished. Overall a bit expensive.

Can’t say enough good things about this hotel. Loved the room which was spacious and had comfy beds and a wonderfully modern bathroom with a terrific shower. Staff was amazing without exception! Thank you for a wonderful visit! If I come back to Christchurch I will definitely be staying with you again.

We had a great stay here. This hotel is very modern. Rooms are clean and well decorated and organized. Good location right off the park. The city is fully walkable from here.
