This was a great stay for our group. We utilised their airport transfer service, they were prompt and proactive with phone contact to arrange pickup and our room was open and ready when we arrived at the accommodation. Room was clean and had everything for our needs. Staff were friendly and super helpful right up to the Railway station transfer tne next morning. Would definitely stay again. Thanks

Stayed three nights in Towers Junction Motel and had a great time there. The location is convenient for food, coffee and shopping centre. The owner Prince is very friendly. We had four adults in the group and required to do laundry before we went out in the morning, he would wake up at 7:30 to open the laundry room for us. Truly recommend this place

We booked in error and cancelled within 12 hrs after realising. Despite numerous requests, and the assistance of Expedia staff, the management declined our request. Though this is our fault, it goes to show the property is only interested in its bottom line rather than whats right.

We stayed there in a one bedroom apartment on arrival into Christchurch before heading off on a South Island road trip. There was a Westfield nearby with a Pak N Save supermarket enabling us to cook simple meals on the cook top. There were eateries within walking distance but we didn't try any of them.
