I spent one night here in February of 2012. After travelling for 24 hours, it was a lovely and relaxing stopping point before starting a 13 day bike trip. The owner was wonderful. She went out of her way to help me get where I was going. More

We stayed at City Centre Motel in Christchurch for 2-nights in March during a tour of New Zealand. We had booked a studio apartment on the internet a number of months in advance of our visit. On arrival we met Carol in reception who showed us to studio 1 on the ground floor and gave us maps and a carton... More

After the devastating earthquakes in Christchurch, there is a minor reduction in the amount of accommodation available. Thankfully, our group of four travellers stumbled on this gem. The rooms are nice, the motel is within walking distance of the city centre and the rates were very reasonable. What made the difference for us was the proprieter/manager, Tina. She went out... More

This is a great small motel that offers more than just a place to stay - great service! My room was on the ground floor and looked at the car park, but I didn't have any noise problems. The room itself was a studio and was nicely turned out with a small kitchenette, sofa, and table to eat at. The... More

I was very impressed with this motel. My telephone booking was handled in a friendly and competent manner, first off, and I felt the price offered was fair considering that some Christchurch accommodation is very expensive right now.
