Top Rutherford's Den Hotel Reviews

Carnmore Hotel Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"The most remarkable fact at Carnmore was the staff, both at reception and at the restaurant, the only ones I was exposed to. They would bend backwards to help with any little question or problem. They remembered who I was from a previous stay, remembered my favourite drink a the restaurant, and the food and service were like no other, in a class of their own. I am definitely planning to go back, even though the cost is slightly higher than other hotels... but worth every cent of it."

Hotel Give

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place with tidy room"

ibis Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"was close to everything"

Drifter Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome spot, awesome place, awesome people"

Crowne Plaza Christchurch by IHG

8/10 Good

"Property is clean, new and well maintained. Breakfast is good but because we don’t eat beef and pork we would consider your hotel having chicken sausages etc as we are limited to the options at breakfast. Also check in was very slow, frustrating especially when you are tired. Needs improvement. House keeping was poor too. We ordered some drinks and waited but never came."

10/10 Excellent

"All just fine"

West Fitzroy Apartments

Novotel Christchurch Cathedral Square

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, close to facilities for walking, staff very friendly, 3rd time staying here, most likely I booked a smaller room then previous but it also looked a little tired. Bed amazingly comfortable"
