Repairing Holes in Walls

I'm after some professional advice...

I recently had all three bedrooms in my house re-plastered, as the walls were in an awful state.

A couple of weeks after having this work done, we had some wardrobes fitted in our bedroom, and the friendly installer drill a hole right through the new plaster in the adjoining bedroom.

In collecting quotes for repairs I have received a lot of different advice on what should be done, some people have advised the a simple patch will suffice, but others have suggest the whole wall should be re-done / re-skimmed?

I want the room back to the condition it was in before the hole was made, so I don't want the wall cracking a a year or two if it saves few pounds now, but equally I'm happy just to get the hole filled, if patch will suffice?
 
yeah wots the hole like? If it;s just a drill hole then polyfilla and some sandpaper would bring it back fine. If its blown a large patch of plaster off I'd have to ask who plastered it if it's recent (or wot bloody drill were the fitters using!!!!) Post a pic and it would be easier.

I think bonding then a tight coat of finish will look like new!

As your getting a plasterer in I'd say bonding and a patch repair. If he's any good you wont see it.
