Average breakfast, Excellent staff room very clean dated needs upgrade of furniture bed comfortable.
Overnighted in Ashburton, required a place to sleep. Hotel Ashburton was well priced and well situated. Of course, it wasn't expensive so you need to expect what you pay for. The property is tired but the staff were great, the bed comfortable, the room clean. It was fine.
Easy onsite parking and everything you need in one place. Very nice tiled bathrooms, although the water pressure could be better. Easy onsite parking and everything you need in one place. Have stayed before and would stay again.
The only negative about this property is that is quite far from the central part of the town. It is really not walkable distance.

The hotel is now let down by the quality of the rooms. Hotel rooms are now tired and facilities such as showers over the bath belong to a bygone era. However food and staff were great.
