Christchurch is suffering from a decline in tourism because of the earthquakes, but it is certainly worth a stopover and good as a base of operations. The Argyle is run by a family who really go out of their way to be helpful. They can arrange transportation, have good recommendations for dinners and the rooms are comfortable and well furnished....

Our room was spotlessly clean and very spacious - a benefit of an older building. Delightful managers who couldn't do enough to help us. It's just across the road from Hagely park and there are great restaurant just around the corner. Highly recommended. More

After more than 30 hours of traveling this was a lovely place to really arrive in New Zealand. The welcome was super friendly, the room was spacious with everything we needed (little kitchen area with coffee/tea making facilities, very comfy bed, Sky TV...) and it is very conveniently located: the bus from the airport stops close by, Hagley Park is...

Brilliant friendly motel. The perfect motel after 27 hours flying from London. Very good location for the airport and next to the beautiful Hagley Park, also very close to shops, restaurants, cafes and bars. Very nice patrons that will advise and help with any of your travel needs. Highly recommended.. Booking also recommended as they are popular. More

Hagley Park is just across the street and is a real oasis near the centre of the city. Although Christchuch is still recovering from the quake in February, this part of the city and the hotel are working well. Great welcome and helpful advice - loved the big fluffy towels.... More

The owners are very kind and welcoming- Maggie responded kindly to my numerous emails, and Bruce made us feel welcome when he picked us up at the airport. The location is probably the best in Christchurch these days, right across from the park and gardens. More

On Arrival, The Best Welcome from Bruce and Maggie Grant is Guaranteed. After 29 Hrs flying from London, their welcome completely put my fatigue on the back burner, so I vouch for this accurate statement. The Accommodation: Spotlessly Clean, Superior Appointed Rooms. Upto date Sky TV Comms. Superb wall mounted heater for powerful heat in the freezing winters. Modern Showers... More

Excellent location, just on the border of Hagley Park, at the corner of Riccarton Road...which now has a lot of commerce since the center of the city is still closed. Rooms are spacious, clean and well-stocked, if a bit dated. The owners were friendly and helpful and really made us feel welcome. Would definitely stay here again. More

This was a functional and clean motel , however it was in need of an update. Faded velvet curtains, threadbare grey towels, an old TV and the thinnest toilet paper in New Zealand! Lounge and bedroom space good but bathroom very small with nowhere to hang a towel. Noisy wall heater. I could continue! Owners friendly and helpful and position... More
