Linda, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We checked in late due to delayed flights, but by prior arrangement the keys to the unit were left inside. Had a surprise when we discovered electric blankets had been turned on for us that cool evening. Certainly worth a return visit if we were in Christchurch

10/10 Exceptional

We had a nice stay at Colombo in the City Heating was very good . We were kept nice and warm in the room even though it was very cold and didnt even need the heater at night. Convenient location and friendly staff. Going back to stay another two nights after our South Island tour.
Kathleen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Enjoyable Stay

Good location of motel which is about 10 minute walk into the city centre. Rooms are a good size and in good condition. The only real downside was that the wifi signal could be a bit weak at times. Overall i would stay here again.
3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect stay in Christchurch.

Our flight was delayed, but the team did such an incredible job accommodating, to the extent of ensuring the electric blankets were on, and the place was ready for us to feel comfortable as quickly as possible. Thankfully we found this spot, so close to many things downtown as well as in such good condition.
Leighton, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very sorry to say this, room 803 smelt like a cat had left a present in the room. That aside, the property was clean and the staff were super friendly
Alan, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

No issues with the property itself, however the room smelt like an old persons rest home (urine)
Mike, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Quiet

The room was generally good but it did have a really odd smell - like farm animals? - and the upstairs bedroom was a bit annoying if you needed to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. On the upside the rooms were quiet and dark and parking was convenient.
Nikki, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay in Christchurch
William, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The stay was nice and quiet, room was very clean, but the bed was a little hard for my liking. Thank you.
Jackie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It is close to the centre, up graded and the room was very spacious with spa which was great for a cold day
