Rydges is in a great location if you’re attending an event at the nearby stadium. However, as we were staying here for the final part of our honeymoon, we felt a little removed from the hustle and bustle of the city, especially as we didn’t have a car. There is a bus stop close to the front of the hotel, which was very helpful, but I would still recommend having a car if you plan to explore the surrounding area.

CC Bryant, 4 months agoFor our one night stay in Christchurch our agent booked us in here. Pleasantly surprised. We were met on reception by a lovely young lady who was very friendly and efficient. Our large room was lovely and a super shower in the bathroom. Beds firm but comfortable and the room had all the mod cons. Buffet breakfast was very good and a good choice. Location was superb, easy to walk into this lovely, vibrant city. We just loved our stay and wished it was for longer 🙂
