We stayed at Governors Bay so that we could be close to Christchurch, but not "in" Christchurch. Views from the hotel of the harbour were beautiful, Room was nice. Very quiet, minimal traffic. Would stay again, but next time we will choose a balcony room. Also, all rooms share toilet and shower Facilities

The staff were so helpful and very welcoming. Our room was just gorgeous and was great value for money. Our stay was very quiet considering all the rooms were fully booked, so is well sound proofed. Would certainly recommend to other guests.

A resort like setting close to all except for public transportation into the city. We walked 25 minutes through the park and gardens. The restaurant prices are high a soup from room service $28. Get the breakfast include at the time of booking was only $17 person all you can eat a good value.

A fabulous luxurious unit. All the mod cons, comfortable beds, beautiful large tiled shower. Could not hear any road noise. Will be staying again. Couldn't fault it.
