Good motel and suited our needs for a disabled unit. Staff very helpful in providing extra towels and advice on where to go, and things to see. It is quite safe, and the people of Christchurch need visitors to stay in business, so please go and stay. More

We stayed in a two bedroom apartment for two weeks in August, with my fiancée's 3 year old son, who lives in Chch. At first we were a bit put off by the fact that we had to carry our bags up two flights of stairs, and when you are away for 2 weeks in a cold country you tend... More

This is the first time we have had felt the need to respond to a Trip Adviser review. Generally, we accept with quiet gratitude positive comments, make adjustments where we can following constructive criticism and accept negative comments relating to items beyond our control - (location/ room size etc). PORTAGE- It is generally accepted that Motels although often assist guests... More

I'm not used to staying in motels and we were only in there for 1 night without a car (arrived by plane and left by train) but it was fine. Certainly can't complain about the space - two floors with sleeping and living accommodation. Breakfast delivered to the room the previous night - NZ$15 each if I recall correctly -... More

Our room was clean and tidy but rather small. The staff were friendly and the grounds of the complex were well presented. Staff were accomodating in allowing us a late checkout and leave our vehicle there till midday. More

This motel is on the main road which makes it very noisy( have stayed twice). I had a downstairs unit and the sound from the room above carries down. However clean and tidy but a bit overpriced for what you get More

I really liked this place because: It has got proper heating everywhere, batchrooms have heat curculation,heated towel racks, electric blanket. As i went in late april so for me temperature there was quite low hence all the 'heating' facilities were important for me. The kitchenett is not right near to your ears, its arranged properly away from the bed. So... More

We spent the last week of our holiday staying at Bella Vista in Christchurch and it capped off a wonderful NZ holiday. The unit was self-contained and more than met our expectations and was still affordable. Our hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. The apartment is spacious, affordable, clean and within walking distance to the city centre and all amenities... More
