Sudima new wing (free upgrade) 2 nights
Sudima Christchurch Airport was great. The hotel has two wings & I was given a free upgrade to a large room in the newer wing. Room very clean. Bed had soft mattress & pillows. Nice TV with a very simple to use tv remote. My room also had an Alexa device which made setting a wake up alarm extremely easy. The room swipe card will get you back into the hotel if it's after 11pm.( At both entrances.) And there's also an intercom at the entrances. Very little noise from planes & both wings of the hotel are well back from the road so pretty much zero road noise. It's about a 10 minute walk to the international terminal - just be careful crossing the road! However Sudima does have a free shuttle as well!

I'm new to Sudima accommodation but feel their greatest strength is in who they employ, the staff is so friendly and so helpful they make the whole place shine. We had an average room compared to other places we stayed. It's did have a lovely garden courtyard, where we could sit outside. The room was clean and had everything you need. Will certainly be using Sudima in Auckland as it's better service than others we've stay in.
