The George

The George is just steps away from the centre of Christchurch, making sightseeing a breeze.

The rooms and suites are decorated in muted neutral tones designed to evoke a relaxing vibe. They all have views over Hagley Park and the River Avon, and feature fabulous New Zealand artwork, as well as plush beds, sleek white-tiled bathrooms, heated mirrors and underfloor heating. The prestigious Park Suites also include a kitchenette, a spacious living area and a large walk-in-wardrobe.

Head to the acclaimed 50 Bistro for breakfast, appetisers and post-dinner cocktails, with a conservatory and a lounge bar overlooking Hagley Park, where you can enjoy gourmet New Zealand cuisine. If you have a sweet tooth, the elegant high tea is a must.

Have a workout in the gym, borrow a yoga mat for some yoga, or head out on one of the hotel's complimentary mountain bikes - a perfect way to explore.

The George offers the best of both worlds, with scenic nature trails through Hagley Park on the hotel’s doorstep and Christchurch’s emerging cultural precinct nearby. Explore the city's tranformation, or satisfy your adventurous side with an early morning balloon flight over the surrounding Canterbury Plains.
