We have stayed at The Muse Christchurch, Art Hotel twice in the last 6 weeks. On both occasions we found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. We like this hotel as its in a perfect location to be able to walk into town, our room was nice and clean and the premises was quiet at night. Having a rooftop bar is a bonus!
