The Mayfair

Unclaimed

Never, ever did we feel as welcome and cared for in a hotel as we did at the Mayfair! The rooms, common areas, the lobby and the restaurant are all immaculate. The service was superb. We remain particularly indebted to Zoe, Harry and Natasha for making our stay so lovely. The service and the hotel restaurant was outstanding and the food was simple but excellent. The Goldfinch (200m away) is a small and elegant restaurant for the gourmand. It has an incredibly large wine list. Very high marks!!

We had a rough start and I was incredibly tired and over the day after the long drive so not a great. They fixed it up and things went on normally for the remainder of the stay. I’m used to impressive hotels around the world and this place does a reasonably job but you have to put the boutique in there and then you appreciate the place for what it is. Rooms are nice and fresh and the bed was comfortable. Bathroom was good Room amenities were good. The hotel has a modern feel and honestly they have gone more in the dark tones so it looks a bit like something out a Daniel Craig James Bond movie outside the room. I would likely stay there again as the location although a bit tight for parking on the street it’s not far from anything on foot. People were friendly. There was one red flag in which someone opened my door with I’m assuming another guest, that was not well received and I believe to be an isolated incident, considering I was on a conference call very bad. The difference between high class hotels and average is knowing when rooms are occupied and double checking everything is on the money. Overall it was fine and as I said likely stay there again. I note without asking the hotel made some thoughtful changes without me knowing, I did not expect it. It’s hard because the previous hotel was a fairly upmarket hotel and it was less relaxing than this one so I think this hotel will improve and this was isolated. Not the hotels problem but the horrible person that was next door drove me insane slamming every single door they opened. It’s good and I’d give it a go but it’s not a traditional 5 star so do not go in expecting the ritz it’s boutique and they mean it.

Had a wonderful stay at The Mayfair Hotel! The location is perfect, the service was excellent, and the staff were incredibly friendly. They made our anniversary extra special with a lovely card, complimentary snacks, and a room upgrade. Truly appreciated the thoughtful touches – highly recommended!

Great, comfortable hotel with service to match. My only issue was two nights in a row, one off an international flight, I wasn't able to shower due to no hot water, both around 1.30 - 2 am. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.

Fantastic stay! The standard room was surprisingly spacious, modern, and very comfortable. Service was top-notch—professional, warm, and welcoming throughout our stay. Highly recommend The Mayfair for anyone visiting Christchurch!
