Although one heard such a lot of criticism about New Zealand hotels, they were, generally speaking, quite up to the standard of the hotels in the larger cities abroad, said Mr D. I. Macdonald, of Christchurch, who has returned from a trip abroad, in an interview. On the price basis, the New Zealand hotels were better than those abroad. The New Zealand hotels were not able to give the same service because of the restricted hours of work, and in his opinion this was the only way in which they fell short of those overseas. One paid as much for bed and breakfast in a good hotel abroad as one did for a whole day in one in New Zealand.
