Top Cave Rock Hotel Reviews

Drifter Christchurch

8/10 Good

"Good location and shared facilities were decent. Nice restaurant in building and whilst chargeable, parking was convenient opposite."

Hotel Give

10/10 Excellent

"Neat, tidy and well setup rooms with comfortable bed. A nice, simple clean option in the city"

BreakFree on Cashel Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"Travel to Christchurch bi-monthly on Thursdays for work, stay at the Commodore for first night (work pays). Then I stay the weekend at the Ramada. Last week I couldn't get into the Ramada on Tuam. So booked in at the Breakfree. I was pleasantly surprised. Dbl bed, internal glass corner bathroom. Bed very comfortable, and pitch black when lights are off as no windows. Great shower and good linen and towels stayed 3 nights. Right in town so walking distance to CBD, Arts preccinct, great food selection and Riverside markets. I ate out 3 days for breakfast, so can't comment on buffet breakfast. Looks good and will try it next time. Staff friendly and housekeeping. Highly reccommend this jem."

Southwark Hotel & Apartments

"Beautiful new apartments. We had a twin room with one of the only balconies, overlooking the courtyard garden. Very clean & well appointed, even a double headed showers. Courtyard had bean bags to enjoy the sun & quiet along with Ring Toss & Connect 4 games ... a bit of fun!. Also attached to my new favourite cafe, "Unknown Chapter Coffee Roasters". Amazing, menu & cabinet food & coffee!. That was a bonus!"
