I booked the Sudima for its location right on the airport doorstep as I was arriving lateish for a very early flight the following morning. The rooms are clean and comfortable, perhaps at the same standard as a run of the mill motor inn. I found the air conditioner / heater in my room rattled a little and I couldn't... More

We usually stay in 4 or 5 star hotels, but there is nothing close to the airport. So we booked here. We were pleasantly surprised. The room was pleasant and clean; the restaurant nice and the food good. Staff very pleasant. The hotel is being upgraded to 4.5 stars. All in all a pleasant surprise. More

I was so thankful that we had booked a room at Sudima as somewhere to sleep after our long day of transit. We arrived in Christchurch in the early hours of the morning and were picked up from the front of the airport within minutes of clearing customs by the courtesy shuttle bus. In honesty, we could have walked to... More

While Air NZ continues to run flights out of Christchurch at disgusting hours, this hotel will continue to do ok. There is nothing special about this hotel, apart from friendly staff on check in and the shuttle driver, who was very nice at 3.30am I have not yet managed to stay a whole night in this hotel, but the room...

The hotel is very close to the hotel and would be ideal for someone wanting to travel at the odd hour. It is close to the Antartic Centre and if one vsiting the centre, as we did before checking in, then, it might be worth going back to spend more time and doing the tour throughly. The room had the...

They have free shuttle between the airport and the hotel, and it's only 5 minutes away. So it is nice to stay there if your flight arrives late at night or you have an early morning flight. Otherwise, I would not stay there. It is expensive. The room I stayed was really dark. I arrive midnight, I entered the room... More
