Chateau on the Park - Christchurch, a DoubleTree by Hilton

Stayed here on points for 1 night during transit, in a Deluxe Balcony King Room.... will definitely be back in the future!nnA lovely older building and grounds, that are all beautifully maintained.nRoom was very comfy, quiet, and immaculately cleaned, with a great little practical balcony overlooking the garden grounds.nnThe staff were exceptional and a delight, with a warm cookie on arrival a great little treat, and a hand written welcome note the final touch on a perfect arrival and check in process.nnThere were some building works underway during our stay, which meant the main reception was moved to the rear of the building.nHowever this was all clearly explained by the hotel beforehand and clear signage was in place to direct people. No noise from the works could be heard.nnVery happy customer.

We purchased a package deal where it included dinner for two and breakfast for two. The room was pretty good, it had a king size bed that was comfortable. The shower was in a bath which was a little off putting. The meal for dinner was fantastic, leak and potato soup and beef cheek. Really awesome meal. The buffet breakfast was incredible. Highly recommend Chateau on the park - Christchurch. Great service, friendly staff. we will be back - 10 out of 10.

Stayed for 1 night after a long flight.nRoom was King one bedroom suite.nnPro:nGood shower.nQuiet room.nSuper comfortable bed.nnCon:nThe whole hotel was cold.nInteresting tap water.nNo curtains over 2 windows, not good for sleeping.nDrafty window above the bed.nOur room had a heat pump in the living area and no heating in the bedroom. A fan heater and blanket were available but this is not acceptable in a 4 star hotel in 2024. But at least we had warm cookies to compensate.nThe room hotel was very dated and needs renovating.nI can only assume the positive reviews are from people who are possibly not well traveled, or we had bad luck with the room we were allocated.

The room was good. I initially left the three stars after my first morning shower.nIt was a shower over bath with my head a few centimeters below the ceiling and I didn't feel entirely safe from slipping.nI didn't rate service because I was there for a conference and didn't interact with service.nThough the people turning down the rooms did a good job

Pros: location, comfy bed, nice view from garden, very quiet cos it was empty.nnCons: only booked cos website said it has a pool. Pool has been closed for 2months- very disappointed child. Air con was freezing but without it the room was roasting. Bathroom was tired and a bit grotty.
