Stay in Wigram Hotel

Hotel was a previous Air force officers club and is furbished to a very high standard. Bathroom huge and included a bath as well as shower. Breakfast included which was a fixed menu and was very good. Only one free drink with breakfast which was a bit odd but freshly made . Parking not a problem but hotel a fair way out of main town, not walkable, so Uber used in daytime and own car used at night when parking in town free. Nowhere to walk local to hotel nor eating places. so had to drive into Christchurch. This was the only issue with what was a very nice hotel

Was a nice hotel where I wished I had more time to enjoy. It was off the beaten path. The Owner’s were superb. Fun if you want a quiet place in a vintage setting. Price point was above average. Overall, I liked it and would recommend.

1920s Fabulous Building with new lease of life

Always wanted to try this accomodation. The rooms have been done up beautifully with fabulous bathroom. Yes there are stairs to the second floor with no lift but not a deal breaker. The only issue was the access to the rooms is via a long hallway behind the bar/dinning area and in the morning a trolley full of left over meals was not nice to walk past so possibly they need to think about presentation outside of the rooms. Good parking and nice location with beautiful big trees and nicely kept gardens. Beautiful 1920s building full of lovely woodwork and light fittings.
