Lovely room . It was quiet, clean and the concierge gentleman, Matt, was most helpful suggesting a mural walk and giving us other suggestions as to where to go.
Excellent stay with friendly and helpful staff in this boutique luxury hotel. We were welcomed with chocolates and a gift bear, “George.” The lobby was very welcoming with multiple seating areas. There were complimentary apples in baskets on the different floors. There is a reading library and an outdoor garden, as well. Our room was very well appointed and comfortable. We could not hear our neighbors.
The restaurant was excellent. The food was well prepared. We would gladly eat there again.
The park with botanical gardens is right across the street.
The George is an outstanding hotel. The service was amazing. The bistro and bar were very good. The room was very comfortable and modern. The location is right next to the Avon River and park and is a perfect place to stay at in Christchurch if you want to walk to the main attractions.
After spending 3 weeks touring New Zealand in a motorhome we dropped it off and headed to the George Hotel.
It seemed like heaven,large room,very comfortable bed and we were met by friendly helpful staff.
The following day we had to get to the airport but the roads were closed because of the marathon going past the hotel,they offered to help with bags to a place that the taxi could pick us up.
Lovely little gingerbread bears and chocolates left in room on return from our meal.
If we are ever in Christchuch again would definitely return.
