Guest Reviews

• Michael (9/5): I stayed in a motel very handy to the Mall and the shops and buses. It was ideal, secure and quiet. - The staff were very friendly and helpful. The unit was warm and big, good couch for sitting and excellent t.v. Nice patio outside. Quiet and good parking. The matress was a bit firm but the sheets and electric blanket were great.

Westfield Mall just down the road was very useful and had everything we needed. Loved the quiet room at the rear of the complex. Place was very warm too. Living space was just a bit small. Had 3 adults. While there was enough seating, it was a little pokey.

• Steve (8/5): I enjoyed my stay - Clean, spacious. Nice outdoor area No where to put anything in the bathroom. Wasn’t a problem for one person for one night but if there had been two of us for longer we would have had our toiletries stored in the floor which is less than ideal as the water from the shower spreads quite a way.

• Marg (8/5): - The service and friendly managers. External noise from street.
• Kerry (8/5): - Close to shopping and Hagley park
• Svenja (9/5): -
• Guy (8/5): -
• Sabrina Florencia (10/5): Will be back for sure! - Loved the property, it had everything we needed . It was renovated so everything was excellent! The fact that the fan in the bathroom turns on everytime someone goes to the bathroom and is not ideal at night.
• Annette (9/5): -
• Rebecca (10/5): - Lovely staff, always very accommodating.
• Adam (9/5): - Nice rooms and friendly manager and staff. Good location near Riccarton Mall. We stayed twice, a week apart, and they found and returned something small we left in the room :)
• Ashlie (6/5): - Very local to shops Sky tv channels were really old from the 90s i didnt even know those channels exist.. no netflix or normal tvnz channels Wifi was turned off during the night.
• Sice (8/5): Great value for money, everything was properly cleaned and smelled nice, Great location. Would stay - The room was great for the price. Was unsure while arriving but once we got into our room we were very happy. Exactly what we wanted Person upstairs was occasionally making loud banging noise but not often enough to annoy us
• Holly (8/5): -
• Adam (10/5): Excellent! - Lovely room with modern bathroom. Everything you'd expect and need. Quiet at night considering the location, and a short walk to the Riccarton mall.
• Paul (8/5): -
• Carolyn (10/5): - Very Clean Comfortable and great location
• Trish (8/5): - Good location close to everything needed. Friendly manager most accommodating. Laundry service open till 9pm.fantastic. Great rooms Good kitchenette No space for toileries to be left in the bathroom. Maybe a soap dispenser in the shower for the bodywashes rather than on the small glass shelf. (Would save getting water all over) there seemed to be enough space for a small stand in the bathroom under the small glass shelf. Thsi is not a negative.
• Rakesh (9/5): Lovely accomodation -
• Sarah (10/5): Perfect space for a short stay, comfy, super clean, welcoming. Thank you for a lovely stay - Great location, close to the university and shops, compact, super clean, comfortable. We had the two bedroom apartment with two teens. Very welcoming. Slept like a log. Had everything we needed for our 2 night stay. Lounge space was very small and table for 2 only. But it was still really great and we will stay again.
• Bruce (10/5): - The unit was excellent but the when we arrived and I asked if he wanted the Expedia booking reference he rambled on about ‘fat cats in America’ taking money offshore and that it’s better to look up the price on there and then to call the motel direct (to cut out the middle man). Was unimpressed to be lecture us like this? if you want to advertise on their platform accept get they take a commission and don’t try to circumvent the process that brought the customer to you.
• Lucy (8/5): great stay apart from WiFi - clean, good location, friendly , helpful staff WiFi didn’t work
• John (8/5): -

• Defrog (8/5): Very good - Lovely place to stay. Close to city if that's what your after and amenities. Our original accommodation booked was cancelled last minute so extremely inconvenient as was walking distance to my daughters.
• Yvonne (10/5): - It was great to stay at but unfortunately there was a problem with the shower flooding the bathroom which we reported to them so they were made aware of it but everything was excellent.
• Craig (8/5): Good location hasslefree - The unit was fine and the bed was comfortable had a good sleep
• Christian (10/5): Exceptional -
• Julene (8/5): Very good -
• Jamie (7/5): Good -
• Norm (10/5): - A very helpful reception giving great guidance as to what was around and what to do was the start to a comfortable one night stay. The room was clean and tidy and provided all of the essentials for a quick stay. Close enough to the city centre to access plenty of restaurants and sight seeing.
• Julienne (10/5): - Thoroughly recommend the Riccarton Motor Lodge. Easy access to city and airport. Good value for money. Will stay again in a months time.
• Linda (8/5): - The reception is very helpful with information and directions. There is no lift to the first floor, but the reception is kindly help me to carry my suitcase down. Close to the bus stops and plenty of busses on Riccarton Rd to many different destinations. Happy to stay there.
• McKenzo (6/5): Don't forget the door curtain - We recently stayed at the Riccarton Motor Lodge for only one night before we left for our road trip round the South Island. The room was clean and the kitchenette appeared to have all that was needed. We had a second floor room at the front and there was some road traffic so I suggest you ask for a room towards the rear of the property. Reception staff was friendly and provided some useful information. The Lodge is up the road from a Westfields and there are a number of cafes and restaurants close by. My other piece of advice is don’t forget to draw the door curtain or you will have light coming in all night.
