Great stay in Christchurch New Zealand

Very nice owners and staff that go out of their way to be helpful, friendly and kept asking if we needed anything or could they help making our stay any better. Location is very walkable to a nice Shopping Mall with many very good restaurants both inside and nearby the Mall. Also walkable to the Christchurch Train Station, and City buses are also nearby, which can take you almost anywhere inside the Christchurch limits and many nearby Suburbs.

A nice clean unit close to the railway station

A nice clean motel unit with fresh new carpet. Friendly staff and within walking distance of restaurants and the railway station. A cost of $60 to get to the airport. Recommended

Overnight stay before train to Picton.

We were able to check in a little early which allowed us to return a loan car on time. Friendly service at check in. This continued in the morning with a very welcome lift to the train station where the check in was 06.30.

Neat and clean Motel.

Prince gave us a warm welcome and initial introduction to Christchurch. He also took us to the train station ( nearby) to catch the Tranzalpine train to Greymouth. Everything we needed was in the room ...excellent tea coffee selection, microwave, fridge and fresh milk, which was an unexpected extra. An Uber cost nz12 to get to centre of Christchurch but you can also walk to the Botanic Gardens in about 40 minutes.
