Motels in Waimakariri District

We only had 1 night there. I wish it had been longer. Peter picked us up from dropping our car off near the airport. He made sure everything was just right. I had a hot cup of chamomile tea in a fancy tea cup that night to get relaxed for an early evening. He also recommended how to best get to the train station in the morning.

We drove in from Queenstown to Christchurch area and were tired and knew that we were a bit removed from the city, but it turned out to be the perfect place. Comfortable bed, pretty décor, kitchen...you really couldn't ask for anything more...wish we would have stayed longer.

Service was very friendly and helpful. The upgrade was appreciated and the fact that I could checkin earlier after a long flight. Location is great close to a bakery in what seems like a good neighborhood. Bed was comfortable , heater in the bathroom was great Z soap, conditioner and shampoo provided. Maybe the only thing I would change is not charge extra for laundry as it’s off putting.

Nice and peaceful location. Mostly heard birds chirping as the main sound. Clean and has shampoo, conditioner and soap in the shower. The stand alone bathroom had no hand soap, which was a bit odd. Has two different laundry and dryer locations on the property that are coin operated, you need to bring your own laundry soap which we had to go to the grocery store to purchase. Sleeps up to 8 people. Each bed had a heated blanket if needed (not sure about the fold out couch because we didn't use...

Room was very clean and the owner was kind and accommodating! I was a bit skeptic of staying in this town, but it's a quaint town that's a nice switch from CBD. This stay exceeded my expectations.

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.

Clean, spacious room with great amenities and a great location! Bathroom was fantastic.

The room was spacious and warm! Warm is a good thing here since it was July and most other places we stayed at were freezing, so we really appreciated that. We really liked everything about the room, and the coffee/dining table was really practical. The owner/manager was really nice too.

The room was great. The bathroom was great except there was no hair conditioner. The floor however did not appear to have been cleaned. The carpet had stuff on it (including someone’s old contact lens!) and the floor was sticky on parts. The kitchenette was stocked but we didn’t really need that since we ate out every meal. Overall good stay.

Great location and perfect motel for what we needed - comfortable bed for the night and clean. Super lovely hosts who made sure everything was as we needed.

Great staff and place to stay

staff was phenomenal. went above and beyond. stayed for 9 days. found the place to be very clean. bedding was more than comfortable, with heated mattress pads too!!! had a 1 bedroom unit. individual heating system in each room, floors heated, towel rack heated. kitchen fully supplied, newly renovated kitchen and bathroom. nearby grocery, fish and chips, pharmacy - all within walking distance of a very nice, quiet neighborhood. easy bus service into city. (only thing i could...

Plenty of parking, fast WiFi.

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.

Excellent!

Highly recommend. Very functional, clean and well taken care of. The front desk help was great! They were always there to provide assistance when needed.

The hosts were wonderful and very helpful. It was nice to have kitchen facilities to cook a meal when I did not feel like going out for dinner. Pak'nSave grocery across the street to easily get what I needed. I will definitely stay there again on a return trip.

Very well appointed room, spacious. Loved the outdoor patio. Rooms have snacks and drinks available for a reasonable price which is a nice touch. It was a convenient location for us.
