Very nice staff, friendly and helpful. The only negative - the room and bathroom were very cold when we arrived, all heating was off, incl heated towel rail. The bathroom was very clean but had an unusual smell - possibly from the spa bath. Overall a good stay. Thank you.

Used to stay here when i worked for Barkers of Geraldine. Nice place and convenient. My husband wasn't well and called an ambulance - not too far to the hospital. Cafes near by. Great location.

Parking is very difficult to get near Christchurch Public Hospital. The motel carparking was free and only 20 minutes from the hospital through the very lovely Hagley Park. The motel owner allowed me to check in early and park my car. This was such a relief to me because I was visiting a sick relative and was under time pressure for a scheduled meeting.

We especially enjoyed the spaciousness, comfortable bed and lounge furniture, the second TV in the bedroom, and the private outdoor space.
