Great location we used the Hereford car parking building to park our rental car which was organised through the hotel. We enjoyed their buffet breakfast. We also had dinner their one night the person on duty was very personable and friendly he makes a very good gin and tonic 😁 staff at the hotel were all very friendly and approachable. We were their for 7 nights and will be back next time we are in Christchurch.
