Friendly staff, good location that is nearby the town & hotel was easy to find. They provide free wifi. The room is spacious enough for the five of us to sleep in. There is a kitchenette for some light cooking.

Accomodation is sparsely available at Christchurch, and you need to book early to get a nice hotel, and this place you won't go wrong. Well located, nicely furnished, with clean rooms, and good old fashioned service, you simply cannot go wrong.

Friendly, helpful & accommodating owner/staff. Location is on a main road & on bus route although we didn't get effected by the traffic noise. Restaurants, bottle store etc all within walking distance.Shopping mall within walking distance too. Very handy to Hagley Park. Rooms clean & tidy.

Very neat and tidy but as others have written we were in the two bed family apartment No. 1 from memory, it is closest to street and very noisy day and night. But a great spot handy to everything. Recommendations from staff for where to eat were spot on. They even rang and arranged bookings for us. Very helpful.

Warmly greeted by the managers. Good sized rooms. Bathroom and kitchenette were OK. Close enough to walk to town centre, and restaurants / cages in Merivale. We enjoyed our stay, the only draw back was we were at the front of the complex and the hum of traffic noise started early finishing late, so sleep broken if you are a... More

The motel is near to the city that you can reach center or botanical garden by foot within 15-20 minutes. Only 4 from 5 points cause of the thin windows and... More

good location, good reception and big enough for 4 people. We booked a two-bedroom apartment, the room upstairs has no door... And the apartment is just beside the busy road, noisy! No oven in the kitchen.

Would highly recommend this property, it ticks all the boxes they were helpful, cheerful, tidy and very clean along with being very quiet, fantastic nights sleep. The cost was very reasonable for us. A property worth visiting.
