I stayed here with work (airline crew) and occasionally the standard hotels we stay in are booked out so our crewing department sources other locations that, as per our contract, have a 4 star minimum. I was in room 201 on this visit. It's upstairs and basically faces the road. There are plenty of amenities nearby including a pub and... More

There are plenty of motels in Riccaton and with the city center closed it's a pretty good area to stay if you are passing through Christchurch. I chose this particular motel for the simple reason that it is in a pretty good location for the airport, Hagley park and shops, it also looked clean and tidy from the outside and... More

Be aware that this is only a 1 or max. 2 star motel, charging 4 to 5 star prices. Make sure you barter with them with the price. Clarify your expectations-you need to spell out things that one would take for granted, such as getting your room cleaned, etc. Make sure you check the room before you make a booking,... More

We had to stay overnight in Christchurch before our next flight. This place seemed reasonably priced compared to most other accomodation in Christchurch. We had to pay a total of $45 transport going to and from the airport. So if there was something good quality which was closer to or at the airport for $30 - $40 more, then perhaps... More

Stayed for 3 nights in a studio room, it was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was small but there was plenty of hot water. Yes the noise from the road is quite loud - if you are a light sleeper then this may not be the motel for you or ask for a room towards the rear of the property. The... More

Unfortunately I have to agree with the previous two reviewers. Whilst the location is close to Hagley Park and Riccarton, my experience was that the standard and overall service of the facilities was poor. The bathroom had broken lino which was broken into several pieces but not cleaned up - this was not a new breakage in the lino. The... More

My grandmother booked a 3 night stay at this motor lodge. She arrived the night of the Christchurch earthquake and stayed their for her first night. Because the motor lodge had NO POWER & NO WATER and as all tourists were being asked to leave the area if possible, my elderly grandmother decided to check-out after the 1 night &... More

My son & I checked into this motel on 4 Jan 2011 at 10pm, the driveway was in complete darkness. I entered the reception and fell hard on my right knee because of the high kerb at the door to the reception. No one was at the reception. I was in pain and I was attended to by a kind... More

We have stayed here twice now, the staff are always pleasant and helpful. The rooms are excellent, modern decor and bathrooms with excellent facilities including a full kitchen. The rooms are spotlessly clean and tidy. The location is great, walking distance to Riccarton mall and Hagley park.
