Our family of four stayed here over Christmas and absolutely loved it. The family suite was fabulous. Beautifully fitted out, spacious and comfortable. The staff were absolutely delightful and went out their way to make Christmas really special. The whole place had a really nice friendly feel. We had breakfast each morning which was superb. Christmas lunch in the restaurant was also fabulous. Only negative was the pool was out of order which we were initially very disappointed about, but the weather turned out to be a bit cool for swimming so not a problem.

This was one of the best hotels Ive ever stayed at. The rooms were very nice, we were given a free upgrade to a suite, which made our stay very more relaxed. The beds and the bathroom were comfortable, and well appointed. Parking was in an inside court making it very safe. The lounge had a large Smart TV coffee, wine, snacks etc. The staff were very friendly and helpful. All were very solicitous about our well being and our visit. The food was better in the hotel than elsewhere in the area though we tried several other restos.

I did not purchase the breakfast so I can't comment on that. The staff were very helpful. There was a problem with the door lock on my motel unit and they moved me to another unit at once. The complimentary afternoon tea in their restaurant was unexpected and very delicious. It wasn't a problem at all but I was in one of the older motel units not the tudor style accommodation as seen in most of the photos. But it was comfortable.

We wanted a reasonably priced comfortable safe place for a weekend break away from home (Timaru) while visiting friends and family and we got it. Being familiar with the Scenic Hotel standard (have visited Blenheim a number of times), we had confidence in the brand. The wait staff were excellent, as was the standard of the food and presentation. We appreciated the low cost up grade to a 1 bedroom unit. Top marks!

Based on the photos, the rooms exceeded our expectations. The Cotswald has a quaint charm about it, and the rooms are very modern, spacious, and clean. Location is great as it is quiet, and within walking distance of shops and restaurants up and down the road. Also a relatively easy walk into the city. All the staff were really friendly and helpful. We stayed 9 nights, and would love to come back again.
