Gavin, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Close proximity to the CBD and some nice cafés (especially Affogato, a short walk away). Convenient off street and on-street parking. My only concern was with the bed that probably should have been replaced a while ago. Otherwise, good, clean, basic accommodations. Staff were very friendly and accommodating.
Greg, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely quiet place. Pleasant 15min walk to town and bus stop outside the gate which was really handy. Would absolutely stay again

karen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff are friendly and helpful. We borrowed an outlet adapter from them as ours didn’t work in NZ. We have asked our tour guide to return it to the hotel as the tour guide couldn’t stop at the hotel location. We hope he’ll return the adapter to the hotel soon. Thank you City Center Hotel for your kind help and understanding! Next time when we come to Christchurch, we’ll stay with you again.

Robert, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our hosts were wonderful. They were helpful and very hospitable. The location of the motel is ideal with a walk into the city and a cafe a few meters away. Our room was clean and warm and we had electric blankets for the cold winter night. Next time in Christchurch we will be back there for our accommodation.
Michael, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Not too far from city centre
The motel is a fairly short walk from the city centre. Quiet location and friendly helpful staff. Shower though was an older style dial turn which varied between ice cold and boiling. Otherwise a comfortable and relaxed stay.
David, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Easy to park, easy check in and out
anni, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Motel met our needs, staff were friendly and helpful, parking was safe and location was convenient to shops, restaurants and city centre.
GEOFFREY, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Reasonable with fair amenities and centrally located for 10-15 min walking distance to CBD Christchurch and the Bio park. We didn't use the rental car for the CBD and the cities restaurants due to Parking fee We spent 2 days with a day at the hotel to head out to Lake Tekapo and Queenstown by drive. Hotel wouldn't help for refunds on delays and changes, we had flight diversion and had to pay for next day. However, the stay was pleasant with free parking included.
Sri, 1-night trip
