Stayed 2 nights at CentrePoint. Despite the devastation to the CBD, it is still a great location and it was easy to get around the city. The accommodations were quite comfortable -- bedroom and bathroom the right size and a handy kitchenette. Jeff was always around and was consistently helpful with recommendations with maps, as well as being generally knowledgeable.... More

Having been in Christchurch last February both before and after the major earthquake I wanted to return to support the city and people who live there. We had seen the damage caused by the quake and are filled with respect with the way that the people of Christchurch are coping with such an unpredictable situation. We were so pleased to... More

Jeff and Naomi really makes you feel welcome to their lovely property CentrePoint on Colombo. We received some excellent recommendations on where to eat (ask about the Thai Caravan!) and great suggestions on what to see while in Christchurch. As the name suggest, the motel is located in a very central location and is within walking distance to the Botanical... More

Stayed at Centrepoint on Colombo last month for 4 nights. Found the accommodation very comfortable with everything we needed. Location was ideal, currently just outside of the city's 'Red Zone". Our hosts, Jeff and Naomi, were very welcomging and provided us with detailed advice on 'everything Christchurch'. With only 12 rooms, the property has a very personal touch about it.... More

We stayed here in December 2011 for 3 nights. On arrival, we were made to feel very welcome by Jeff, who was funny, friendly and full of useful knowledge. He gave us some great tips on what to do and see in Cristchurch, particularly difficult as much of it was so badly damaged in the Feb earthquake. He even tried... More

Stayed here for 1 night whilst travelling around New Zealand and have to say it one of the nicest motels we visited on our 3 week trip. Staff at the motel were very friendly, gave us great detailed advice on where to eat and what was on offer in the area. This was very handy especially after all the earthquakes... More

We had the 1 bedroom with the bedroom upstairs, 2 flat screen tvs, lots of room with a small kitchen area. The room was very clean and well kept, as usual with New Zealand, the owners were very friendly and helpful, especially pointing out the quake red zone and what is open. More

Really nice accommodation - huge room. Very clean and tidy. The staff were very helpful. In light of the earthquake and all the local businesses that are closed, they had put together a map showing all restaurants that are still open - which was very helpful. It was within walking distance to the City - although there unfortunately isn't much... More
