We Enjoyed our stay at the Palms Motel, everything was super clean & inviting, not too far to the airport or city.

We checked out at 6am to get our flight but it was canceled, I called the Motel to ask if we could come back to stay until 10am and they were amazing, so highly recommend the service here.

Thank you 🙂

The gentleman at the front desk (manager) was very accommodating and helpful. It was our first time in Christchurch and he took the time to give us some guidance on where to go and visit for the few days we stayed there.It's a short distance form the airport which made it very convenient. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. Thankful that room was complete with appliances I needed - iron,hair dryer,fridge, microwave, coffee pot,etc. Lastly, same manager was kind enough to drop off a bag we had accidentally left at our room when we rushed to the airport for our departure flight early in the morning.. Wish I had gotten his name. Thank you so much!

The room was very clean and the appliances was above our expectation. The front office staff, Shirley, went out of the way to make our stay problem free. She was most courteous and kind and went beyond
and over her duties to make our stay memorable. The excellent host we came across in our many travels. The motel is only 10 minutes from Christchurch airport and 20 minutes to the city center by Metro Bus. Very convenient location. I would recommend the Airport Palms Motel to all who are looking for a convenient, clean best place to stay.

We felt like the staff here went above and beyond the norm during our stay here. At one point the desk manager loaned me his personal phone to order a pizza (from Pizza Paradise, also good) because my phone wasn't working. They gave us good advice on sights and events around town. The housekeeping was friendly and efficient and the room and hotel grounds were very well kept. We stayed 2 days at the start of our visit and 2 days at the end.

Good basic motel. Reasonable sized room and clean. Worked well for us flying into the airport and renting a vacation camper van the next day. Nice coffee shop across road and half block down.

Clean room, decent size bathroom, micro wave, iron, fridge, AC ETC were the amenities. Bus to go to Westfield and The Crossing mall is literally outside the motel.
Friendly people in CHC generally. There is a very big park about 5/6 mins walk when you turn left from the motel. Metro service is good and cheap. One can get a day pass for 10 dollars from the bus terminal or by cash on the bus.

Our stay in the property was a breeze. Communicated with the staff that we will be arriving late and they sent me instructions to get the keys. If I visit Christchurch, I will book another stay with Airport Palms Motel!

Not a bad place but it was noisy with the busy road and a long way from any dining options. On the plus side, very convenient to the airport and nice not to have to mess with traffic in the morning before we headed out of town. Beds were comfortable and they provided milk for our morning coffee which was thoughtful.

The owner was totally helpful with everything, told us of the restaurant across the road so we went there for tea ...it was delicious.
The room was perfect and the bed was so comfortable. Slept very well.
He took us to the campervan hire in the morning as well. Cannot fault this experience.

I booked this place online while driving down to Christchurch, arrived after 9pm so didn’t see a human. After hours check in seemless. The room was immaculate, super clean and modern! The bed was the most comfortable I’ve had travelling over the last couple of weeks. I particularly liked the colour scheme and decor, but thats a personal thing. Woke early and self checked out without any interaction with himan again. Excellent service and stay!

A quick phone call and we were rapidly collected from the airport and driven to the hotel where check-in was quick and easy. After chat about our plans we were helped to collect the campervan from the local dealer.
A comfortable room and clean spacious bathroom. Overall a very successful stay, would recommend.
