Lodging business in Christchurch

“We stayed here twice recently on our way in and out of NZ. The service was amazing. Each person we spoke with was friendly and helpful. The woman who works the night shift and does the shuttle runs in particular was incredible. The rooms were clean and well maintained. There’s an onsite restaurant and playground. The shuttle service was very much appreciated as we had one of the last flights in and first flights out. We would definitely stay here again.”

“Good location close to airport. Nice clean room”

“I had a great stay at Scenic Hotel Cotswold. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the room was clean, tidy, and comfortable—just what you need for a relaxing visit. The location was also a big plus, being close to amenities which made it super convenient for getting around. Overall, I was really happy with the service and the atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others looking for a comfortable and well-located place to stay.”

“A great place to stay and enjoy this lovely city! The welcome by the staff has been fantastic and the food and staff in the restaurant is also fantastic! Many thanks to you all! Our room also is so lovely and homely with the living room enjoying views of the gardens and so very pleasant. The bathroom works really well and the king size bed is just like home! Thanks for everything. From the Bonds.”

“Enjoyed our 1-night stay. The room was clean, tidy and comfortable. Was able to enjoy Disney + Netflix and free tea coffee service. Definitely stay again.”

“Super friendly people who are so helpful. The best motel I have stayed in for a long time”

“Great experience. Check-in was quick. Park is huge with lots of space between campers. Kitchen, BBQ, and washrooms were brand new. Laundry takes 2x $2 coins per machine. Overall great stay would recommend. Recommendations for park: double sided dump stations to allow more efficient departure times”

“I originally picked Ramada for the parking, but the stay completely exceeded my expectations. The room was the best of my whole South Island trip — spacious, with a comfy king-size bed, washer/dryer, and a fully equipped kitchen. Absolutely loved it!”

“I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Elms in Christchurch. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, with everything I needed for a relaxing visit. The location is convenient, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel felt warm and welcoming. A special shoutout to Rajendra at the front desk; he was exceptionally friendly, professional, and helpful throughout my stay. From check-in to answering questions with patience, he truly went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. His hospitality made the experience even better and gave the hotel a very personal touch.”

“What a wee gem. The owners are lovely and make you feel so welcome. The trees all but hide the traffic, sight and sound. The service station is near for snacks and morning coffee. The room is clean and the birds are chirping. It’ll be the first place I’ll book next time I’m in town.”

“I highly recommend Ashleigh Court Motel in Christchurch. It is a gem. The room and bed were very comfortable. The kitchenette was well equipped with enough glasses, mugs and crockery. There was a great shower with really hot water and good quality towels. It is in such a quiet, serene setting with lots of trees and birds, so close to Mona Vale and Hagley Park as well as Riccarton Shopping Mall so is super convenient! The new owner was very helpful and kind. We were there at Christmas and the new owners treated us to lovely Christmas lights and a sweet treat for the family which was so special. Thanks Lulu - we will be back!”

“We stayed here couple nights with our 5mth old baby, while in transit in Chch due to flight issues. Nice place close to city center with free wifi, comfy rooms, and clean & tidy facilities. All staff we interacted with at Front desk, housekeeping, and morning breakfast were friendly and polite. $24* for a staple breakfast buffet which had enough on there to get us started for the day. We were in a stressful situation with our holiday logistics, and staying here was easy and everything was perfect. Thanks again team! Guru & Becky. Dunedin”

“From reception to check-out, this hotel delivered a great experience. The room was clean and comfortable, with a slightly unusual layout (external sink) but a fantastic view and a very comfortable bed. Casting was also built into the TV and seamless. Both dinner and breakfast at the restaurant were excellent—great food and attentive service. The staff’s hospitality stood out throughout the stay, making it feel warm and personal. The location is ideal, right in Cathedral Square and close to the bus interchange, making it easy to explore the city. A 4-star hotel with a 5-star experience—highly recommended for anyone visiting Christchurch.”

“This room gave you everything you need in the centre of Christchurch within easy walking distance of food, shopping and the river. The shape of the room and bathroom was a bit quirky, but overall serviceable, with a large comfortable bed, desk and sizable balcony looking over the Christchurch Tramway. There is a small wall heater in the room, but the room was a nice temperature (visiting in September). There was a small issue with the room allocation at the beginning, but this was resolved by staff quickly. I was placed on a first floor room, just above the tram line. It wasn't very disruptive, but you could hear it in the room. However, it is what it is and is quite a unique hotel location.”

“Great friendly staff, great Irish bar across the road. Also a washer and dryer in the room. A warm room and a comfy bed. Also a really quiet place. I will be back.”

“Stayed in the studio for a week and enjoyed its comfort. The receptions were friendly and helpful, while the room was super clean and functioned well.”

“Our service from amberley hotel restaurant Was a really memorable event. We were greeted by a friendly, well groomed young man . Offering us the choice of seating in the tastefully decorated modern clean restaurant with breathtaking local artwork. Sean our waiter took our order he was verry attentive and friendly bringing our order it was beautifully presented, and the food was delivered hot . The meal was delicious, succulent meat fresh seasoned vegetables and all with gravy . Sean repeatedly checking on our needs. Wonderfully delicious food, friendly staff and warm inviting space. Thanks to Sean and the team we will be back.”

“Enjoyed staying here, stayed in the family room, was a very cosy home away from home, even had a bath, also very friendly staff who gave us a good deal.”

“Room is spacious. Everything is clean and tidy. Great location. Full kitchenwares. Owner is very kind and friendly. As my schedule changed so I decided to checkout 1 day earlier. I just asked without expectation for the refund but the owner did refund 100% of 1 night to me.”

“Really good campground, friendly staff, has God toilets and showers, kitchen and laundry”

“Have stayed at this hotel many times and I have to say it definitely is one of my favorite hotels to stay in lovely staff lovely rooms comfortable beds and spa jet bath in our room, the only thing I would recommend is getting the place fitted out with sound deading can hear people in room next to you other than that the restaurant food is pretty awesome, my main highlight everytime is the buffet breakfast it is top notch”

“Perfect stay for me, stayed for over a week. Room nice clean and up to date. Nice close to the beach. Only 30min drive to Christchurch city centre 10min to rangiora where you can get everything you need. Had plenty of questions for the staff what all have been answered. Overal a very good stay and will be back.”

“Perfect gateway for your Christchurch visits. It is near the centre, but also easy to reach. The rooms are very clean and big. The owners are kind and very helpful. I would definitely stay here again!”

“Location is awesome...walkable to many central attractions and the tram is right at the door. My studio was huge and clean. Comfortable bed too! Friendly and helpful staff topped it all off.”

“Went to the Cust Country Pub for dinner last night with some friends. Had a lovely time. The staff were all very welcoming, friendly and efficient. Nothing was a bother for them. The food was great, from the entrees to the desserts. I had the fish and chips which was served with yummy chips and a lovely green salad and was unfortunately more than I could eat ( and believe me I tried). I would recommend this pub to anyone who wants a reasonably priced good meal in a comfortable friendly atmosphere. Well done to the staff and management.”

“Peppers Clearwater really blew us away. We booked a Lakeview Suite through an Accor Plus More Escapes deal that came with breakfast, a three-course dinner, and a cheese platter with a bottle of wine – such great value. The suite itself was gorgeous, the perfect spot to unwind and recharge. Sitting out on the deck watching the ducks and swans glide by, with the sun setting over the lake, was just magic. The staff made the stay even better – both the bar and restaurant teams went out of their way to make sure we had a great time. Dinner was a real highlight: duck salad and grilled scallops to start, then fish and lamb for mains, and tiramisu plus panna cotta for dessert. Every dish was spot on. Breakfast the next morning was à la carte with excellent barista-made soy lattes, and I have to say, the eggs benedict was the best I’ve ever had. We were lucky with the spring weather too, and enjoyed our cheese platter and wine out on the deck in the sunshine – pure bliss. The little touches also made a difference, like being able to do a load of washing and plug in our rented Tesla overnight in the garage. We honestly couldn’t recommend Clearwater more. Huge thanks to all the staff for making us feel so welcome and completely spoiled.”

“Went for dinner, delicious food (I had the chicken and bacon stack, it was excellent, and the roast and burgers are always great). The crew really looked after us, thank you!”

“We had a very pleasant stay at Sudima Christchurch Airport Hotel and stayed in the Premium King Room. We were checked in by the friendly Wade, and we would like to thank him for his professionalism and warm hospitality. His calm composure while managing multiple big group of check ins at once was truly impressive and worth mentioning. Our hotel room was clean and comfortable, and we really appreciated the pillow menu, which gave us a great night sleep. The location is also extremely convenient, it was just minutes from Christchurch Airport and within walking distance to Woolworths and several nearby food places. The free parking for hotel guests was another big plus. We also had dinner at Acheron at level 1, and were served by the welcoming Alan. We overheard he’s still a student, but we were genuinely impressed by his friendliness and service. Overall, a very pleasant and enjoyable stay. Would happily return!”

“I’ve been staying at this backpackers hostel for the past 2 weeks , and my experience has been very good. The stay was comfortable, the facilities were well-maintained, and the environment was friendly. Overall, a pleasant and hassle-free experience.”

“We had a fantastic experience here. The food was fantastic but the staff were the real winners on the day, so helpful and bubbly. Koru always makes traveling an enjoyable experience.”
