Focus Motel
4.6/580 Reviews
Arrived in town very early and Rory let us leave the car for the day while we walked the town and Botanical Garden. Chatty check in with same later with great recs for dinner and evening activities. Room quiet as a tomb, immaculately clean, pristine beautifully tiled bath with curtained floor shower soft towels and nice toiletries. Universal outlet for charging our shaver, rare in NZ. TV with plenty of international channels. Kitchenette with French press coffee maker, milk in the fridge, microwave, all you’ll need. Comfortable queen bed with top grade linens. 15 minute walk to everything. Ate across the street at Bog, the Irish pub and very pleased. Gated security after 9:30 pm with fob access. All at a very reasonable price.
Novotel Christchurch Cathedral Square
4.2/576 Reviews
Accommodation is good. My criticism of the hotel is the customer service in the bar. Tiny pours of wine, barman kept calling me (female business traveller) ”dear” - didn't point out that the beer I ordered in happy hour (after I enquired which drinks were discounted) was not included in happy hour....As a lone female business traveller I want to feel welcome, not patronised. The whole point of hospitality staff is that they are hospitable and your staff seemed to not have really grasped how to do that. I frequently stay at Accor hotels and love the friendliness of the staff - (Pullman Rotorua is an example of excellent customer service). Christchurch was an anomaly.

Bealey Avenue
Our room was most clean and comfortable with everything one could need, including emergency toothbrushes and one of us needed one:-) Very kindly the manager had put the heating on in the room for our arrival. Location is great. Please don't be put off by exterior appearance which is quite bland - lots of grey gravel. Great value and certainly recommend.
Hotel 115

Just on the edge of the cathedral, it is very convenient to go anywhere, and the room has a great terrace. Downstairs is the mall and Chinese restaurant. There is a tram restaurant downstairs, and the train is a bit noisy.
City Central Motel Apartments
4.4/575 Reviews
The hotel is centrally located, not very expensive at price - it also corresponds to quality. The reception times are very unfavorable and are not respected. As we were following the CHC only in the afternoon, we wanted to leave the baggage at the hotel. In the early evening we asked when and whether we could deliver the baggage. The early time (from the motel view) is to wait for the opening of the reception at 9:30. On the check-out day we waited just half ten before the reception and we found that the reception was still closed and the staff were not even entered the building.. We have to wait before closed doors until 09:45. When we (And the employees!) were finally entered, we could only deliver under baggage in half an hour... thus we are swept the remaining time in CHC.. We wouldn't come here anymore!
CentrePoint on Colombo
4.5/5132 Reviews
Excellent place to stay & more like a hotel than motel. Very friendly and helpful staff, well-organised and made us feel welcome from the get-go which is always a great start to a holiday. Spacious room, all amenities provided - iron + board, hair dryer, kettle + tea, coffee, cocoa, sugar, air conditioning, satellite t.v., comfortable recliners, cutlery and so-forth. Very comfortable and large bed, lots of drawers etc. to store belongings. Even the bath had water jets! Cleaned well every morning. All ran like clockwork. Would most definitely recommend this location for all of the above and location - is a short walk into town and the airport bus is literally around the corner.
