Stay Timaru
The only thing was that I was used to a firmer mattress. And maybe an extra pillow would have been helpful.

I had a great stay. Welcoming, helpful staff, and a lovely room. I always enjoy staying at the Grosvenor, and I’m looking forward to my next stay. Will definitely aim to stay in an Executive room again.
