Guest Reviews

• Bryn (6/5): - No a/c upstairs uncomfortably hot and the bottom floor toilet you can't even stand up in
• Jaimee (10/5): -
• Susan (9/5): -
• Mark (10/5): The apartment was very spacious, clean and comfortable. Well located to the CBD and Merivale shops. -
• Sharon (10/5): Apartment Excellence - Service level was above and beyond. My family was attending an event in the city and I cheekily requested an early carpark and the possibility of obtaining an apartment key 🔑. Wayne not only granted my request but allowed us access to the apartment at 10am. It is not lost on us that it placed pressure on himself and his cleaning team. The apartment was perfect, exceptional location, spacious and spotless. Thank you we are very grateful for your kindness.
• Stacey (8/5): - Good set up, nice and clean Beds are very firm
• Darren (10/5): Central , modern and spacious - Spacious , clean, great location.

• Georgina (9/5): - Fantastic communication with Wayne and Karen...perfect location, comfy beds, awesome amenities....will definitely stay again... Nothing
• Julianna (8/5): -
• Clarence H (6/5): - The unit was divided into three levels. For seniors, this was an inconvenience. Bathroom on ground floor has a low ceiling. Parking is difficult.
• Zoe (10/5): Exceptional -
• Herbert (10/5): Exceptional -
• Susan (9/5): Superb -
• Andrew (4/5): Poo housekeeping between guests - 3 bedrooms On arrival we were given an incorrect room configuration. We were then moved to another apartment which stank of stale cooking fat. The lady gave us a large bottle of room freshener to try and mask the smell. This didn't work, and I was a bit annoyed that we were expected to deal with the issue. We then found a piece of old cooked chicken in the microwave and several dirty glasses in the cupboard. No care was taken to check if the property was cleaned after the previous guests. When we went to bed the stale fat smell had permeated all the soft furnishings including the sheets. It was a very disappointing stay, and expensive!
• Joanna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Josh (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jo (8/5): Good moderate accomodation in great Merivale location. - Great location either way 3 bedrooms suiting a family Noisy beside road which is very understandable given on Papanui Rd. Two flights of stairs very steep for arthritic husband. Blinds on 2nd floor bedroom next to road do not block out light very well. Plunger coffee would have been a nice offering given nightly rate $400+.
• Marianne (10/5): Bel hôtel - Très bel hôtel. Appartement tout équipé. Bon séjour, nous reviendrons.
• Katherine (9/5): Superb -
• Tania (8/5): Very good - Lovely welcome from the duty Manager. The apartment was well.equipt and clean. Quite small, and on 3 levels , very hot in summer month, air con on ground floor was fantastic, but needs one in each room?
• Paul (8/5): Very good -

• Sharon (10/5): Merivale Magic - The host, Wayne, was excellent. We were a large family group. The apartments were very clean & comfortable & had everything you'd need, super handy having a washing machine & drier in each one. Wayne was so friendly & was a great help with suggestions for places to park & visit. Based on his suggestions we visited the Botanical Gardens, Cafe & did theTram Tour. Thought the mattress on bed downstairs might be too hard, but actually ended up comfy & good night sleep. Thought the steps from bedroom downstairs up to kitchen/dining/lounge area might be too many for older members of the group (70's), but they handled them well. We also loved the Lime green Scooters available for hire around the area, cheap & easy to operate, even for us in our 50's. Excellent pub 5 min walk, just down the road, The Brewery, was a week night, quiet & excellent food.
• Jonathan (9/5): Superb -
• Jenny (1/5): dont recommend to my colleagues and friends - the owner is strick in the number of people to stay in the apartment. that he counted even my 1 year old daughter to the total number of how many can stay. the most inconsiderate person in had ever encounter. the place is stinky because of the rubbish still in the bin un emptied prior our check in.
• Jo (9/5): Superb -
• Aiah (9/5): Superb -
• Hua (10/5): I would definitely recommend this place. - It’s a lovely place to stay. Very clean and well presented. The location is great, close to city centre and supermarket. It had everything that we were looking for.
• Natalie (8/5): Very good -
• Joanna (9/5): Superb -
• Abby (10/5): Exceptional -
• Debra (9/5): I would completely recommend this accommodation. - Location great walking distance to mall and many eateries. Apartment was perfect for us. Well appointed and very clean.Hosts very friendly. Nothing the accommodation exceeded our expectations.
• Charlotte (10/5): - Very clean and comfortable. Very easy dealings with the office. People who have mobility issues might not like the two flights of steep stairs, but as long as you’re normally able it is a grand place to stay
• Nicola (10/5): - We really enjoyed our stay at the Merivale Apartments. It was perfect for our family of five, everyone was very comfortable and the location is fantastic. Highly recommend.
• Andrew (4/5): - Expensive for what it was.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Soacious property over 3 floors, so maybe not suitable for families that have young children, but the place was lovely and perfectly suited 4 adults and a child
• Chris (10/5): - Our Family of six had plenty of space in the family apartment. Wayne and Karen were great hosts and helped us to find an excellent Italian restaurant nearby. Merivale is highly recommended. We would stay here again.
• Tuula (6/5): Townhouse near the city - 3 story, 3 bedroom townhouse in walking distance to a good shopping village and restaurants, and not too far from city. One bedroom tiny, one takes up the whole bottom level. Small bathrooms. Could be cleaner. It was quiet but a bit dated. Long way to the top 2 bedrooms with luggage.
• Luci (10/5): Great for a Group or Family - Nice clean and modern, close to Merivale - had everything we needed, parking for two cars.
• Nicky (10/5): middle of Merivale - Excellent people who own the place so helpful. Makes all the difference. Very nice apartments too roomy and well kept.
• Albert (10/5): Great hosts and facilities - You felt welcome the moment you arrived from a great couple who were typical of Kiwi hospitality. The apartment was clean and had everything you need for a relaxing holiday. The only negative is the parking space could be a bit bigger as we had a large SUV. Finally, the location was handy to the all the amenities and attractions we wanted to see.. .so overall a top notch accommodation.
• Theresa (8/5): Nice and clean - The place is nice and clean and the staff were very pleasant and professional. We had a lovely stay. However it would help us a lot if the information on the website provided more details of the property, because we did not realise the property has three levels and we had someone who is 80+ and found it difficult to bring the luggage upstairs and going up and down to the kitchen which is on the second floor. Apart from that we are very happy with the place.
• R (8/5): Appartment stay - Nice, clean & in a handy location. We had a good stay.
