Hagley Golf Course

This is not downtown, but it is a good location that splits the difference between the airport and CBD. I walk, and it’s an easy (but longish) walk to the city center. Bus service is also frequent, and there is direct service to both the CBD and airport. It’s super clean, super quiet, and very comfy. It has a kitchenette. It’s overall a great spot.

The room felt very budget, broken ironing board missing cup, and a note saying the rooms are only serviced every 3 days so during our 4 day stay we only had a serviced room once. The phone wasn’t working when we tried to ring the desk for a missing a cup and after learning our room wouldn’t be serviced we needed towels. The first lady that checked us in was bright and cheerful super helpful but for the next few days the other lady wasn’t very warm. It’s almost as there’s been a change in management and have put cheap tea towel, glasses and cutlery in there. Location is probably the best thing about this place short walk to riverside and tram and everything else. Also have to pay to park car $20 per day
