- Name of the hotel:

Ibis Christchurch

- What is your Le Club status?
Platinum


- Were you (or for multi-stayers were you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?

Yes

- Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked cheapest room, received next category (Larger bed, high floor).


- How are the rooms?
Modern, albeit basic. Not huge, however this is an Ibis Property.



- What was good and what was bad?
Clean, tidy rooms.
Clean tidy restaurant.
Centrally located.


Good:
Rooms, internet, $1 breakfast rate.


Bad:



- Did you get club lounge access? How was the lounge?
Not applicable.


- What about welcome drinks, welcome amenities or any other special perks?
Welcome Drink Vouchers for bar. House beer/Wine/soft drink. Used for espresso Coffees for breakfast.


- Value for $ or Vouchers? Would you return?
Can be value for money, can be horrendously expensive.
2x nights for ~$320 prepaid online.
$1 breakfast offer is a great offer, and would like to see this extended more regularly. Perhaps a new Platinum member benefit?
Unfortunately usually priced too high to be accommodated for my business travel, and would rather stay at the Novotel in close vicinity when staying in Christchurch and having to subsidize out of my own pocket.
Cheaper to burn points than Novotel, however when paying, the difference is usually ~$60 a night so would rather stay here.
