From £77 per nightEverything!!! Especially after we stayed at Chch central hotel that was too expensive tried to make money for every little adding thing. Your motel was the best place we’ve ever stayed!! Loved it!!! It was crazy storm around Canterbury on the day and we were the only one luckily got to Twizel and they updated the accommodation for us. So flexible and open mind compared to posh stingy hotel in Chch. Also they were happy for our new kitten to stay and he loved it!! Thank you so much for been so lovely to us!! It was a lovely to stay.

Akaroa on the Beach
Akaroa
From £107 per nightThe view is utterly stunning. I could not stop taking photos, as the light changed, and impressed me all over again. The kitchen was well equipped and we enjoyed the space and variety of places to sit to read when not distracted by the view. The weather all over NZ was atrocious, so we went with plenty to keep us entertained, but none of it needed. While the rest of Canterbury shivered and dealt with the rain and gale force winds, we strolled about Akaroa spotting birds and enjoying mild winter sun.

Gladstone Hotel
Fairlie
From £31 per nightThe Gladstone Hotel is an old girl who has given much to the local community over many long years. The room was clean, the bed very comfortable, the bathroom facilities excellent and a bonus was the continental breakfast. Always enjoy my time there, but having been through the Canterbury earthquakes, always say a prayer that one wont hit whilst staying!

Pinedale Lodge & Apartment
Methven
From £69 per nightWell located for trips into the Canterbury high country. Apartment is well insulated so did not need to use heating despite cold nights for this time of year. Very quiet.
Colin New Zealand -
From £143 per night
Friends who had previously stayed at the hotel strongly recommended that we do the same. They were correct. The hotel, which was a government building, is located in the center of Christchurch. The room was outstanding - 2 floors with all amenities. There is a wonderful pub in the main lobby area, not officially part of the hotel, that was excellent. We would go there again.

We booked a cabin for 3 nights. Us and our 2yr old and 4yr old. The cabin was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. It has a lovely little deck area then onto a lawn which was perfect for the children. A playground in the main camping area also fab. Toilets and showers really close. Everything was clean and the owners are lovely. We had such a great time.

From £569 per night
What I was most impressed with was that we arrived very late as a result of a delay with the Wellington - Picton Ferry. Having communicated with the team at Hapuku Lodge and knowing we weren't arriving to very late the team prepared a lovely anti pasto for our enjoyment upon arrival - most appreciated!
Ian -
From £49 per night
We just stay here for 4-5 hours before heading to airport at 3.00 a.m. For short stay it is comfortable and the check in procedure is easy (mailbox). however it is quite hard for us to find the rooms since there is no road sign or rooms numbers sign in each road so it took us for a while to locate all 3 houses that we booked since the number of the house can't be seen clearly since we arrive at night. the rest is superb
