Novotel Christchurch Airport
The experience here was excellent. My flight was extremely tragic and lots of issue and the staff were sympathetic and willing to help out so much. Check in and out process was seamless. The room was clean

LyLo Christchurch
The room was clean but very small. However, it was located at about 1 km from the international airport, an easy walk of 15 minutes to the airport and this is the main reason why we booked that hotel.
