Ashford Motor Lodge is within walking distance to the city centre. It has cafes, restaurants close by. The rooms are modern, clean and well set up with everything we needed.

The only improvement I can suggest is to provide a coffee plunger and plunger coffee

Excellent location Easy walk to Merivale shops, cafes, pubs and supermarket. And easy walk into the central city. Large motel with 1 bedroom . Great size for family of 4. Clean , tidy and comfy

Nothing to note apart from a bread knife would be handy. A great little bread and pastry shop just up papanui road and we needed to cut our ciabatta.
