The Charlotte Jane has a new front office - reservations person and guest hostess / manager.

Dawn moved to New Zealand 6 months ago from South Africa where she owned and managed her own small accommodation establishment prior to moving to New Zealand for family reasons. Born in Manchester UK, perhaps the Christchurch climate may be more in keeping for her.

Dee Reddy, owner of The Charlotte Jane will also be taking a more prominent role in the operation of the hotel.

The hotel has recently been recarpeted  in the public areas, staircase and first floor landing.

The 2009 World Travel Award nominations have been announced and three Boutique Hotels and Lodges properties have been selected!
