Rolleston Highway Motel

Rolleston

10/10 Excellent

Great location and staff! I played on 8 golf courses within a 15 mile radius during my two-week stay. Also took a 45-minute bus ride into Christchurch on Christmas Day from a bus-stop 5 minutes from the motel. And boarded the TranzAlpine scenic rail train at a station 10-minutes away. Walked to McDonald's, KFC, and New World grocery and other shops within minutes. Sarah, the owner/manager made several special efforts to make my extended stay very comfortable.

A great place to stay in Christchurch. Conveniently located off the main road to the airport. Access to sights and activities is excellent. Also easy to get to some great cafes,restaurants, and shopping areas. Staff are super nice and do everything they can to make your stay comfortable. Bill and Pat went above and beyond to make my stay excellent. Rooms are quiet and comfy and have a full kitchenette. Some also have spa tubs. Highly recommend the Airport Palms.

This is a small, well-run motel close to the airport. The owners provided all the amenities we needed for an overnight stay before flying home. Jeff checked us in, was very kind and accommodating, delivered our simple pre-ordered breakfast and drove us to the airport. Everything was done well. The room was cute and cozy and bedding and towels were very nice. Information in the room was comprehensive and helpful. The only issue we found was that there are not many options for restaurants within...
