Golden Hotel
The Hotel looks a little tired on the outside and in the hallways, but the room was spotless and bed very comfortable. BEST SHOWER of our NZ trip so far. The food in the cafe downstairs was great.

Daffodil Motel
The Daffodil motel is in a very good position. It is a nice walk into the city through Hagley park. There are many shops and eateries close by. The room was large and very clean and well equipped. The staff are friendly and attentive. It was the perfect place for me to stay at for my two day mission ...
