Orana Wildlife Park

I got in late at night, the lady on the desk was lovely. However, when I went to my pod I couldn’t even use the locker as the other travellers had left their luggage completely blocking and clothes were hanging on the ladder to the top where I was assigned. I moved to a private room for $355 NZD, which is overpriced for a 1 star hotel room. My carpet had clearly been vomited on or something, it was badly stained and the entire carpet was so dirty. Linen was clean thankfully, and the staff were helpful and friendly. If you’re ok with the hostel style it’s a good value, for me it would have been much less expensive and significantly nicer to stay at Novotel.

Room was clean and comfortable, staff were lovely, friendly and helpful, is in a great location with easy walking distance to all the lovely restaurants, shopping and the Christchurch Tram etc, parking is good but there's not much of it so it's first come first served so we were lucky.

Clean, well maintained- excellent location.
