Guest Reviews
- Christine (8/5): - Great location very comfy bed lovely room.. would stay again
- Adrienne (9/5): Nice stay - Friendly welcome, very clean. Great shower. Our unit was back off the road, so quiet, although over the road from Riccarton Mall Great price point. Nothing really, we had a standard studio. Might be cramped for longer stays but fine for one or two nights.
- Annie (9/5): - Location, clean, comfortable rooms. Service excellent 👍
- Vilitai (10/5): Grateful to always have a spot when they vacant so always happy when I visit. - Always like coming here, just stress free and facilities on point! Close to everything you need.
- George (9/5): -
- Bill (9/5): Convenient for our stay. - Well equipped and excellent location
- Maggie (8/5): - Location was perfect. Room was a little too small.
- Spencer (8/5): -
- nik faizul (8/5): -
- Mark (7/5): - We've stayed at this motel many times and it usually doesn't disappoint. Great proximity to Riccarton mall, if ya keen the casino takes about 45 mins to walk via Hagley Park. Pricing is getting a little on the high side, and it appears that some maintenance may be over due ie paint work refresh, mould in parts of the bathroom.
- Mark (7/5): - Directly opposite Riccarton Mall, have stayed here before. Good size parking for most vehicles. very little road noise. Excellent shower. Road sweeper man cleaning the carpark across the road at the mall at 9pm- noisy.
- Casciaro (9/5): Perfect break I would recommend. - Lots of space and comfort. Good parking and helpful staff. It wasnt long enough
- prijatna (7/5): -
- Meng-Lian (9/5): -
- Michael (10/5): - Location, rooms clean, beds very comfy EV chargers Nothing
- prijatna (7/5): Enjoyable - Good parking place, clean room and close to the mall
- Geethu (10/5): -
- Danielle (7/5): - Basic but clean. Unit was quite small - ok if you re out all day but not if you re spending much time in your room.
- Xing (10/5): - 非常完美，老板人很好👍
- Andrea (7/5): - Location was fantastic in regards to public transport and shopping requirements
- george (8/5): We enjoyed our time at the motel and will be pleased to stay there again. - the situation of the motel is excellent - opposite a mall with easy access to and from a busy main road. The office staff were excellent and even "went the extra mile" by insisting that they carry our bags upstairs to our unit. Parking was well organised, our unit was spotless and quiet, comfortable bed, and plenty of hot water in the shower. But the unit let itself down on our second day and instead of being described as being fantastic only earned a rating of very good in our opinion. As mentioned previously the unit would have been described as fantastic had the unit been serviced on our second day. It was not and we were forced to use sodden towels that had been left as prescribed, no milk had been left in the fridge and there was insufficient crockery initially. SMALL PROBLEMS, probably overlooked, that should never have occurred but ones that resulted in lesser enjoyment and rating in our views..
- Gardner (8/5): Well executed business with helpful staff - Proximity to things
- Lai Yong (8/5): - Located in a popular suburb of the city, largest shopping mall in Christchurch is located across the road. Plenty of food choices especially for those who like Asian cuisine. Bed is too soft for my liking.
- Yvonne (7/5): 2 night short stay in a great location - Proximity to Riccarton Mall. Super comfy bed!
- John (7/5): Handy - Very handy to the Mall The road noise is all night and the motel is over rated especially for the price charged
- Brett (8/5): Great stay, location was great out of city Hussle & Bussel, Short drive to city - Location was great a short walk down the street for Restaurants, cafes Bars, across the road Westfield shopping centre. Rooms are small
- Victoria (7/5): Comfortable Stay - Nice and close to shopping Mall and restaurants and easy access to public transport to get into the city. Was a comfortable stay. The person who runs the Motel was very accommodating and friendly. This Motel is looking a little dated, may be in need of a renovation
- Simon (8/5): -
- Marius (10/5): -
- Vikki (8/5): -

- Erik (8/5): -
- Sarah (9/5): Would definitely book here again - Location was perfect, was really comfortable and quiet
- Elliott (10/5): Amazing Affordable Motel - Great location as it’s right across the street from the mall, 24 hour Maccas and loads of nice restaurants. Arrived at a later time when reception was closed and came into a beautiful tidy room with the heat pump on low to warm up the room on a very chilly night. Great overall restrictions on noise which pretty much every other room followed. Loads of tv channels with a medium sized tv. Bed was very comfy and had heated blankets! Staff were friendly and welcoming. The parking was easy and was downstairs right outside the room. The bathroom was very clean and amazing shower. A very affordable choice for what you get. Will stay again! A larger Tv and maybe a bigger bin but other than that it was great!
- Tan (5/5): - The front desk customer service was very professional and had a good attitude. Perhaps because it's a single-pane window, there's a little car noise outside at night. But the bed is still very comfortable.
- Jean (9/5): Comfortable, convenient, good value for money - Regularly stay here. Very convenient location and has everthing I need A little small for family but what you would expect for a motel - fine for short or last min visits esp if you don’t have transport
- Dolphinjo (7/5): I will definitely stay again - Perfect for a last minute one-night stay following a trip to Christchurch for some shopping. Bed comfort was excellent, and so was the shower pressure! The air-con in the room was also appreciated with the outside temperatures that weekend! Would definitely stay again.
