My go to when in town - easy walking in to the city proper, easy walking to where I need to get to. Only issue there is very limited parking so suggest you book your parking spot if driving pronto.
Clean tidy and exactly what I wanted for the night!

Basic room only good for sleeping but good value
I stayed in the basic room and it was fine for just sleeping over, if your doing anything more than just sleeping get the nicer rooms, they are really good. Overall value for money.

We only had one night here but what a fabulous place. Great selection of restaurants across the road and a short walk to the Cathedral.
Great place to stay. Everything was literally within 2min walk. Shops, chemist, cafe etc. staff were great and rooms were very comfy. Our new accommodation now every time we will visit home.

We booked a courtyard view apartment but opened directly onto a Tarmac car park. Noise from the apartment upstairs on the first night went on for hours resulting in a major lack of sleep.
Enjoyed staying at Southwark, location is very good for access to central Christchurch, Hagley Park as well as having plenty of restaurant choices very close by. Staff are friendly and helpful.
Large rooms on a single level. Close to shops and lots of dinning options. Cafe right next door great for morning coffee, cafe can be a bit noisy if you want a sleepin though.

Great location
The apartments are in a perfect location with easy walking distance to things in the central city.
If you are after a car park please ensure you contact the accommodation prior to travel. This point was buried in some 'small print' type conditions, so I missed this point snd ended up having to pay for a city car park in a very unprotected place and it cost me a lot for the two days.
Also ensure you get a nice room, my room was in a very dark ground floor corner, virtually no good natural light. It felt dark and uninviting and the bathroom, though perfectly clean, had a very damp smell. And the room was next to a laundry room which was noisy from 8am till 9pm.
It was a shame as the complex looks great and the staff were friendly.

Twin room ridiculously too small, to access beds had to walk sideways at end of beds and up the middle, only room for one bedside table/lamp. No room for two suitcases, had to step over, no hanging space, no wall hooks. No table, one plastic chair. Rude reception when asked for bigger room.
