I stayed in "Hotel SO". It was really nice, but avoid the cheapest room because it's incredible small.

Jailhouse! An old prison, made into a very nice hostel! Very friendly staff, nice and quiet and you sleep literally in the old cells.

Hotel Grand Chancellor Christchurch

top ten holiday parks are awesome and pretty good priced

Backpackers Hostel "Foley Towers" (not misspelled!) was a nice place to stay. Central, quiet and friendly!

i´m staying at coachman backpackers, it´s cheap and central white a big launge, if it is the best? don´t know havent tried any others..

Meadowpark in Papanui.

Millennium Hotel, it's across the square from the Cathedral

i stayed at the base... and it was one of the worst to be fair !!!

Definitely was different experience in SO Hotel. It is pretty small room, but it is amazing with all technology going around. and i am not a tech freak. just if u will stay there must ask the staff for explaining the lights. As there is an option that the lights in the room wake u up like the sunrise. really nice place to stay a night or two and experience something different. me and my love we loved it.

We stayed in a beautiful boutique hotel named ' The Charlotte Jane'. Their webaddress is www.charlotte-jane.co.nz If you do not want to stay in a ordinary hotel but a bit more exclusive with lots of service and great food... go there!
