Stayed at Christchurch YMCA - Christchurch, New Zealand.
The tram is near the Arts Centre which makes it easy to go to the city. But it ends at 7pm. I would request for bus service. The free shutter bus does not cover the area near to YMCA, I had a difficult time to walking all the way from city carrying a bottle of 3L orange juice!

Stayed at Carlton Hotel Auckland - Auckland, New Zealand.
The location of the hotel is also good as many areas of the city are within walking distance. Shopping, restaurants, waterfront, the casino are all within walking distance. We enjoyed the restaurants at the waterfront area.

Stayed at Grange Guest House, The - Christchurch, New Zealand.
Ideally located on the edge of the center square, we could walk to most of the downtown sites. The Royal Botanical Gardens are also within a very short walk. We took a 3 hour van tour of the Christchurch sites and this gave us a good overview. Also took the shuttle to the train station for our Trans Alpine train ride over Arthur's Pass to Greymouth.
