Serene 2 Bed CBD Retreat
This inviting retreat in the heart of Christchurch CBD is just a short walk from cafes, restaurants, a variety of retail shops and public transport, and approximately a 20-minute drive from the airport.
Ideal for unwinding after a long day or work or exploring the city, this cozy haven offers a serene atmosphere that promotes relaxation and comfort.
A 2-level townhouse featuring open-plan living with a fully equipped kitchen, dining, and lounge area with the comfort of air-conditioning on the first level.
The kitchen has everything you need to prepare your own meals including oven, cooktop, toaster, cookware and utensils, as well as a dish-drawer. The dining area features a stylish table and chairs to sit and enjoy your meals.
The living area is bright and welcoming, with a sofa that converts into a bed for an additional sleeper if needed (linen for the sofa bed is an additional cost). Wi-Fi is available and a wall-mounted smart TV is there for your enjoyment.
Located upstairs are two double bedrooms complete with comfortable queen beds made up with high-quality linen. Each room has a wardrobe should you wish to unpack your bags. There's a full bathroom with shower, vanity, toilet and an ensuite off the main bedroom, both equipped with fresh towels.
Outside the lounge area is a private courtyard; the perfect spot to relax at the table and chairs with an early morning hot drink, a meal or a refreshing drink! The carpark is located off site, approx 20 second walk from the front door.

The accommodation was exactly what my family of 5 needed. It was in a great location and walking distance to some fabulous restaurants. The communication from the staff was wonderful and they were responsive. We would definitely stay again. Thank you for having us!
