Boasting garden views, Gorgeous Villa, 9 mins from Airport provides accommodation with a garden and a balcony, around 7.3 km from Canterbury Museum. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. The accommodation features a shared kitchen and full-day security for guests.

Rachelle was very friendly, hospitable and overall an excellent host. I felt comfortable straight away upon arriving. The facilities were great - stocked kitchen and bathroom with a bath (I love a hot bath!). The room was also private and very comfortable. Easy to access the main house through a door and the bathroom was just adjacent. I wasn't there for very long as I was flying early the next day. On that note it is conveniently located very close to the airport.

Situated in Christchurch, 2.2 km from Canterbury Museum and 2.6 km from Christchurch Art Gallery, Urban Locale: Bars, eats & shops features air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi. Guests staying at this apartment have access to a patio. Parking on-site is available and the apartment also offers bike hire for guests who want to explore the surrounding area.

Really enjoyed staying here, great hosts who very thoughtfully supplied age appropriate toys for our toddler. The location is great - Merivale mall is approx. 100m away, with restaurants and supermarket. City centre is possible to walk to (rather than driving), and if you're a runner you can make a circuit of Hagley park from here (Botanical gardens, etc. there). The place is almost new, great size for a small family or two couples. Appreciated the kitchen had all the small things you needed like food wrap, cleaner, etc. so you don't have to buy it. Outside space is small but very usable. No off-street parking, but free parking on the street was easy to find. Highly recommended

With free private parking, the property is 2.7 km from Hagley Park and 5.1 km from Christchurch Railway Station. The property is non-smoking and is located 18 km from Orana Wildlife Park.

The check-in process was remarkably smooth, setting a positive tone right from the start. The room itself was a haven of comfort and cleanliness, equipped with all the necessities one could ask for during a stay. One of the standout features was the air conditioning, which was a true blessing in the summer heat. It kept the room pleasantly cool, ensuring that the warm, stuffy weather outside didn't affect my comfort indoors. Additionally, the large bottles of toiletries provided were a thoughtful touch, contributing to the overall sense of being well-cared for. The entertainment options in the room were also excellent. The TV was user-friendly and can stream Netflix.

    The staff were always pleased to assist us with our requests. They helped make our stay more memorable. The food at the restaurant was excellent, location for access to the city centre was ideal. It was also great to be given a free drink voucher for the bar. We don't usually take our dog on trips, but we thought we would give it a go because they are pet friendly.
