Pet hotel in Christchurch

“The team at WAG Doggy Daycare are absolutely fantastic. We have just started our 2 mini schnauzers at WAG and the staff have been amazing in helping them settle in. Photos and reels bring smiles with the whole family following WAG on socials. Both dogs are so excited on arrival and have such a great time. Thanks to the team at WAG for looking after our 4-legged friends with so much care!”

“Absolutely beautiful little retreat, the rooms are the perfect size for a couples getaway, the views are incredible and the best part was the hot tub at night with the stars and one of the best wines we have tasted. We feel refreshed and renewed. Lots of extra details that made this place such a gem, from Bluetooth connectivity throughout the room to the luxury bathroom and of course the super comfy bed. Well done to all who make this place so special, couldn’t have asked for a more perfect way to start our NZ holiday. Thank you :)”

“Whilst attending my daughter's wedding celebrations, I booked three rooms, for three nights, for my family members travelling from Melbourne. I cannot speak highly enough of our hosts Frank and Jenny, who took us into and shared their home with us. The location is within walking distance of the village of Lyttleton and its services. Our hosts were attentive, friendly and supportive, but, not intrusive. Their rooms were a delight, comfortable, spacious and serviced daily, unless one signed that it was not necessary. Ensuites, heated towel racks, room heaters ensured a comfortable stay. The views over Lyttleton Harbour are breathtaking, complemented by the external open patio, complete with outdoor furniture and barbecue for guests to relax and enjoy. Complimentary cereals, yogurts, fruit, tea and coffees ensure a relaxing start to the day. Frank and Jenny are approachable, friendly and helpful, we enjoyed our stay and commend you to them when next you visit Christchurch or Lyttleton areas.”

“Had a fabulous stay here. Very comfortable and clean room, with all necessary amenities provided. Fantastic spot right next to the cafe and Diamond Harbour eatery, with easy access to the ferry and lots of walking tracks. Really loved being able to have our dog stay with us too. Thank you & we will be back!”

“After a 9 hour flight and a night stay in Auckland, we were pleasantly surprised at our accommodations at Sumner Re Treat. We were greeted by Chris and she escorted us to our room. It was not only spotless, but very attractively decorated. Our accommodations came with all the necessary amenities, the decor was contemporary, and the location was excellent. There were numerous eateries within walking distance. Best of all, it was a short walk to the beach. I would definitely recommend Sumner Retreat if you plan on visiting Christchurch and want to get away from the City Centre.”

“Thanks for looking after dipper great job and beautiful place for your best mates time out, thanks to all staff.”

“I visited this place to find a little break from my busy life, and it was the best choice. Strolling through the beautiful garden and spending a day in nature made me so happy. The owners were incredibly friendly, and there were delicious plums in the garden too:)”

“Absolute fantastic value for money at the Darfield Motel. Friendly, helpful and accommodating staff. We stayed for four nights and wish we could have stayed longer. Spacious, warm and wonderfully clean rooms. Well equipped kitchenette. Walking distance to the amazing bakery and other places to eat. Thank you Darfield Motel for a warm welcome and perfect stay. Can't wait to come back.”

“We’ve taken our beloved cats to Anna for years now. Like many other reviews, we also drive a distance to Anna, we trust her with them both. The boys come home healthy, settled and I feel so relaxed leaving them in her care - thanks Anna!”

“Beautifully appointed, super spacious and immaculate accommodation. The owner is lovely and so helpful. Go for the deal that includes dinner locally. I went to the Laboratory which was buzzing and had great food and locally brewed beer.”

“Attended a friends wedding there in Friday. Fantastic venue. Well catered. Nice gardens.”

“Highly recommend this accommodation the service was fantastic. The rooms were spacious and clean. The beds and pillows were comfortable great nights sleep Also the location was perfect very central to everything.”

“Very convenient to central Christchurch. Stayed here a couple of times, Summer and Winter and the contrast is interesting. There is a back deck outside area with covers and heaters. Drag blankets from the games room too if needed. Cosy villa all around. Can't wait to stay again.”

“Cute place near everything. We walked mostly. Parking is close quarters but at least they have some! Rooms are spacious and comfy. Staff are awesome.”

“Thank you Chet and Steve of being a very good and lovely hosts. Very good stay, the room is cosy, clean and comfortable. They have small little pantry in the room itself - coffee, tea, water and a kettle to boil water. Toilet amenities are also provided. And I like the surrounding garden with planted apples, pears, plums, lavenders and so many others. Walking distance to the nearby cafes and restaurants, and 15km to the Christchurch international airport. As my flight is very early, so I don’t have chance to have the breakfast, which I really love to do it in my next visit again.”

“Our dog Winston can’t wait to go to PAWS every week, he loves seeing the staff and his dog friends. We can’t speak more highly of our experience at PAWS.”

“totally awesome place to stay in everyway!.....hosts are so accomodating and helpful.....everything spotlessly clean and tidy, comfy bed and nice personal touches in the room. Will def. stay again and highly recommend for location, price and comfort in one of ChCh's best suburbs.”

“Lovely room, great dining area, lots of beautiful artwork, and nice hosts. Smallest sink ever in the room like so many other places in NZ. Nice shower though.”

“A colleague and I stayed in Sumner Bay Motel recently and would be more than happy to stay here again. The service and friendliness of Sophie and Mark was outstanding. We were in the 2 bedroom unit, 2 lovely comfy couches in the good sized living space, beautifully equipped kitchen and comfy beds, Very warm when it was freexing outside. Highly recommend, great motel, great location”

“I've just finished working in Rangiora for 3 months. I stayed at The Riverstone Motel for the whole time and loved it. Quiet, convenient, and comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble for super friendly hosts Charlotte and Mike. Every evening I'd come back to the curtains drawn and the heat pump on. It's the little things that count.I recommend it 100% and would go back in a heartbeat.”

“Amazing service and very helpful. Grooming work is excellent and staff are very friendly”

“Great quiet place to stay, easy to find after a long flight and the room was kept nice and warm for my midnight arrival. The after hours key was easy to find and the room was lovely and clean. Will definitely stay again”

“A quiet and wonderful home-style backpackers. The hosts, Alan and Keiko, are lovely and welcoming. The garden is gorgeous, and the rooms and facilities well kept. Definitely recommend staying, and will come back again!”

“My 13 month old Greyhound and I just compleaded a 4 week manners course. From the start Georgia made everything easy I was unsure of what class would best suit our needs so we arranged a pre training assessment. We met with Kerry, who listened and made me feel that he cared and that he genuinely wanted to show me how to help my dog and I to work together as a team. I really want to say "Thankyou for the last 4 weeks. The great information, training tips with real world advice. Oh and the laughs"”

“I've been taking my dogs here for years and the groomers are so careful and professional - recommend to all, also have used the daycare services when I go away and the dogs have been well loved and cared for.”

“Don't judge a book by its cover. The proprietors of this lovely motel are the most amazing, generous and friendly couple. The rooms are well appointed, comfortable and nicely renovated. I would not hesitate to stay here again. I recommend them highly. Thanks Amanda and Gary :)”

“Stayed for 2 nights when first arriving in Christchurch, the motel was so good that we returned for the last 3 days of our trip. Marko was very accomodating and the beds were amazing. Could barely hear the traffic despite being on a relatively busy road, and was very nicely located to the mall. 10/10”

“I cannot recommend 306 Riccarton Hotel enough! From the moment we arrived, the hosts made us feel so welcome with their warm hospitality, always going above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Their friendliness and willingness to help at all times truly made a difference. The price was affordable, and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the rooms. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and we hardly heard any road noise. The rooms were spotlessly clean and well-maintained, with everything we could possibly need—and then some! The location is ideal, within walking distance to nearby shops etc so everything was super convenient. We’ll absolutely be returning to 306 Riccarton Hotel next time we’re in Christchurch. Thank you again to Carol and Phil!”

“Great spot to stay. Super friendly and helpful staff. We were in a bit of a jamb and the lovely lady let us check in at 8am . Definitely got us smiling again. Great food nearby within walking distance and would definitely stay again”

“Fantastic place. Our German Shepherd Luger loves coming here! The staff are friendly and informative everytime they've been there when picking up our boy. Glad we've chosen to go here!”
