“Excellent location and great value for money. Rooms are modern and clean with comfy beds and warm showers.”

“This was a real great find. Stayed somewhere different and chose here due to location and a kitchenette. Room was clean and nicely appointed. Staff were super helpful and friendly and it is only a short walk to the shops and a short commute to the city. Will definitely be staying here on my next trip.”

“Everything was lovely even better with a free upgrade huge rooms soft beds and electric blankets too full kitchenette sky TV with Netflix the people were lovely as well very welcoming”

“Perfect location, opposite to shopping centre and plenty restaurants are in walking distance. Room was bit small but worked find for us as it got spa too. Staff was really friendly. Place was nice and clean. Highly recommended.”

“ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS 10/10. Ace host's, beautiful accommodation. Very very helpful and a good laugh too. Fiona could be my mum any day even though she's a year younger. Big thankyou for putting us up. Xxx”

“Have been here a couple of times for a drink and most recently a meal. The staff behind the bar are friendly and my meal (chicken salad) was restaurant quality and delicious. Will definitely return.”

“Had a really good experience at Rydges Latimer Christchurch with my Lion group from Taiwan. I was struggling to find a place to park the coach, and Lama from the Front Office came out straight away to help. He showed me the possible parking spots and then personally guided my group through reception to the restaurant. Even though he was busy at the front desk, he still made sure everything went smoothly for us. We had dinner at Bloody Mary’s, and the restaurant was great. Everyone had steak booked, but since I don’t eat steak, they kindly arranged chicken for me. The food was really good and the whole team looked after us well. Big thanks to Lama and the staff at Rydges for making our visit easy and welcoming.”

“Wonderful, stay at Crowne Plaza In Christchurch. Terrific Location! Central to everything. Staff were all so pleasant and so helpful. Would certainly stay here again. Rooms were lovely, modern and well equipped.”

“Awesome country pub with a good menu”

“We found ourselves with an hour to spare while our car was being serviced and on recommendation, went to the Crate & Barrel for breakfast. We were made very welcome on entering and were seated next to the fire. While our breakfasts were being cooked, we were given a guided tour to look at the extensive memorabilia. Wow!! The sports section was impressive as was the musical instruments as wall art and many other collections. Food was delicious and plentiful, coffee superb and service impeccable. Highly recommend and we will be back soon.”

“Such great customer service. They replaced our sheets, washed the dishes and left new towels for us every day. The communication was also clear and fast. Even though it is near a main road the traffic was light in the evenings and the rooms have double glazing, so I was able to get a great sleep. The heater was left on before we arrived so the room was nice and warm. Also really competitive pricing. Thanks!!!”

“Very clean and central! The bed and sheets felt top quality too! Great spacious clean shower. The reception man was friendly and accommodating. I would definitely recommend! I’ll be back for sure!!!”

“Stayed as a family of 5. The facilities are amazing for kids. We were allowed to bring our dog which made the trip so much less stressful. The park had a bunch of activities organised for the kids for Halloween which meant the kids were happy with not going trick or treating. The pool was SO warm, despite the cold snap. We will be back for sure”

“Part of the Maclean party, Jeremy and his staff were sensational. Beautiful historic Hotel. Food outstanding . Fantastic weekend..thank you. We definitely coming back”

“Oh my goodness thank you for the great motel, we have been looking for a place we can regularly book when we come to Christchurch and after trying many different options it feels like we have find a home away from home. Amazing customer service, made to feel so welcome from moment the booking was made we felt welcome, and to arrive to be greeted by a smiling and welcoming face and going out of his way to make changes to accommodate our changes. I felt relaxed, appreciated all the small touches, such as extras bathroom products in the cupboard. Just outstanding, I know where we will be coming for future appointments. Thanks for the awesome service.”

“Absolutely amazing stay. Apartment clean spacious, and luxurious. One particular reception staff Aaman went over and above enabling us together concert tickets that we could not access.He really made our stay brilliant. Sports facilities were really good, lap pool and sauna good range of fitness equipment”

“Everything you could want. Very clean. Friendly accommodating staff”

“Arrived in a monsoon and was soaked. Owner (David?) gave me a towel and fetched a bigger umbrella for me, so I could get to the supermarket without getting another soaking. He was so kind and thoughtful with a great sense of humour. I often saw him talking to the guests. The room was fabulous value for money. Big comfy bed, walk in wet room/shower with seat and handrail if needed. Little kitchen area with kettle, toaster, hob and microwave. Nice wardrobe and two bedside tables with drawers. Really cosy. Room was serviced everyday which I didn't expect either....really excellent service. It's about a 20-30min walk to shopping centre and botanical gardens etc. Buses run there too. Supermarket 5min walk away. I'll defo stay here again!!!!”

“Love our Sunday country music afternoons at this place once a month. Sandi and her daughter run a great bar. They're friendly and accommodating.”

“Great camping facilities and loved the location. Very spacious camp sites. We had a great time”

“Cozy hostel in the heart of Arthur's Pass Village. The owner Tash is fantastic and very responsive over phone (if you don't see her in-person) if you need anything (I had an check-in issue from booking third party). Large size community kitchen with everything you need. Dorm and lounge areas were very spacious and had all the basic necessities.”

“great location, spa suite was lovely, clean, fairly modern, had everything you need. staff very friendly and helpful . will definitely stay here again next time we are in chch. thank you!”

“Myself and two family members came to stay in November for surgery. The dates changed from a few nights, to a week, then to 2 weeks. Rose was incredibly accommodating, she made us feel like we were at home. Rose is an Incredibly beautiful person and me and my family would return there anytime we go back to Christchurch. Rooms are dated, but still nice and very clean, lots of heaters for winter, rooms were very large with full kitchen. Absolutely worth 5stars, lovely owners who genuinely appreciate and go out of their way for their guests”

“A decent motel with comfortable facilities and a central location. The motel overall has a slightly dated look, bit the facilities and furnishings are modern. The room was spacious, comfortable bed, decent furniture, modern bathroom with newer fittings and ample amenities, while good kitchenette and appliances. The car parking however is very tight and with a bigger vehicle it gets tough to park and take out vehicle. Location wise is pretty central. Good value for money and recommended for a short stay. Below is the detailed review: Location: The motel is ideally located with a 5 ~ 10 min drive across major attractions in the city. Access to and from airport is also straightforward. Walking to places may take slightly longer but it’s a walkable city so no issues at all. Rooms: The rooms have a nice large king size bed, with clean and comfortable mattress, pillows and sheets. The room had nice cane made chairs and a table. The closet has decent hanging space, and it also contained the iron and ironing board. Decent space to keep the luggage as well, along with a flat screen TV of smaller size. The kitchenette had plenty of crockery and kitchen ware along with a decent toaster, slightly older electric kettle, and a microwave oven. Bathroom: The bathrooms are relatively modern, with a separate shower cabin. The water pressure in the shower is not the best despite the bathroom being on the ground floor. The wash basin is also a bit small and water splashes out which is not convenient. Shower cabinet contained bath gel and shampoo only, while a small moisturizer bottle was provided in the bathroom. The hair dryer is fixed in the bathroom and is of a decent size. The towel rack is also heated. Plenty of towels were provided including hand, face, and shower size. Additional toilet paper and air freshener was also provided in the bathroom. Additional Facilities: The WIFI signal and speed was very good. The laundry has two machines and one dryer, for which the dryer was out of order, however alternate option was provided through reception. The car park has 1 spot for each room, but the parking space itself is too tight and gets difficult to park and take out the car when the lot is full. Staff: It’s managed by the owners who are an older couple and very helpful people. They made good arrangements for our late check in and also helped us with additional parking spot that was available. The cleaning staff were also very efficient and nice people.”

“This is a hidden gem. Tucked away a little, this is a terrific place. Historical and modern all at the same time. Marty was the sensational staff member who made our experience such a great memorable event. It was nice to see some of the Wigram Airfields history being kept for generations to come.”

“Nice campsite beside the airport. It might get a bit loud from the road and planes. I loved the spacious TV room with cosy sofas. Got to have it all to myself for a few hours and enjoyed watching a movie. Kitchen and bathroom are clean and functional. Staff is lovely.”

“Spotlessly Clean, comfortable and restful unit. The shower has a great pressure and was sooo relaxing after a day of travelling. We had a two bedroom unit which was spacious enough to accommodate a 3 yr old running about. Office staff friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again.”

“Excellent place to stay if you’re a backpacker! It’s very cheap, but I was surprised at what it is for the price. The location is amazing and is about a 10 minute walk from New Regent Street for breakfast. The bus that goes directly to the airport is right by the backpackers as well. Beds are very comfy and come with a privacy curtain. The only downside is that the female room has one bed without a curtain, which I didn’t like/expect. The guy on reception was very kind and upgraded me to another room without any extra cost which I was very thankful for. The guests were very quiet and there’s an area to meet fellow backpackers if you want to. I highly recommend coming here, it was a great experience. It’s better than most backpackers which cost more.”

“Fantastic walking tracks and best of all your dog can come too Alfie loved it.”
