Solid choice, some finer details to improve on
Great location. Nice facilities. However, the $40 per day parking fee was a bit much. Also, the need to get staff to open up the door to the gym/pool and give you access to the parking in the basement is an inconvenience. Especially when you have to leave for the airport and the staff have put up a 'back in 10 minutes' sign.

Nice handy location, close to Viaduct and Skycity short walk to both. Great price, good 24/7 room access. If i was to be a little fussy it was a bit noisy early morning with bins getting emptied out on the street by compactor trucks. I would book again

Rooms are old and tired, mouldy curtain, broken and mouldy tiles in bathroom, shower tap plate coming off wall - this is NOT 4-star. AND BEWARE as they sting you for the full amount at check-in ($400 for a studio), $40 for a carpark a $250 bond - I've only ever handed over my credit card for a hotel to take an imprint, so I was annoyed about this. No signage in lobby to suggest it is the Chancellor. Location is good, proximity to the city is good, but this is not an intl standard 4-star - more like 3 star at most.

Liked: Cleanliness
The best thing about the hotel is the location. The room was clean but tatty (scuff marks on walls, crack down front of dishwasher, full ashtray out on balcony table). To get into the gym or parking you have to go to reception and ask someone to let you through, I recommend not doing this near check in/ check out time as with one staff member and a long queue you will wait a while.
