位於基督城藝術中心的The Observatory Hotel，是一座由19世紀坎特伯雷大學天文台與物理系建築改造而成的精品酒店。其前身為1877年建校的大學舊日址，哥特復興風格的歷史建築在2011年地震後經修復重生，如今與藝術畫廊、手工藝市集為鄰，成為城市文化復興的象徵。
房間體驗：歷史感與舒適度的權衡
此次入住的G1房型位於地下室，空間略顯侷促，採光依賴人工照明，雖保留了石砌牆面與拱形門窗的歷史痕跡，但潮濕感略重。床墊偏軟，對習慣硬床的旅客可能不夠友好。不過，房間內配備現代設施如空調、智能窗簾，威廉•莫里斯風格的紡織品與坎特伯雷本地手工傢俱，仍透露出設計巧思。
服務亮點：五星水準的細緻關懷
酒店服務是最大加分項：24小時前台響應迅速，工作人員對建築歷史如數家珍；若升級至高層客房（如Verona房型），還可透過天窗仰望星空，體驗更佳。

房間挺乾淨的，交通位置也還方便，環境比較特別，值得住體驗一下，因為老房子，搬運行李不是很方便，房間有點小，早餐不用在酒店吃，儘量去外面吃
