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.

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.
