Admiral Motel

Nice clean room with fast and stable internet connection. Excellent service.

Although a convenient location with easy parking and a welcoming owner, I have to say this motel is is need of an update....we also found the standard of cleaning was poor.

The host was absolutely wonderful and the room was spacious and beautiful. My brother and I loved it. Stay here!

We had a very comfortable stay here. The studio unit has everything we needed and the location is just a short walk to the city centre. Will definitely stay here again.

I really have no idea how this place got so high review score, maybe the other rooms are in better condition, or they paid a lot less. The room we got was worn and dusty with a carpet that felt sticky against your feet. The bedroom had a smell of dust and moisture like in an old cellar, and no open windows could fix that. Also whoever cleans the place should take a lesson in cleaning because behind the bedside table and the headboard were big chunks of dust and spider web. Wifi was only working in the hallway, not in any of the bedrooms. The only good thing with this motel was the helpful and friendly staff!

Rick and Ricki are very helpful, provided us the local info. Convenient location to airport and town centre. Bealey ale house restaurant is very good and reasonable price. Please book in advance.

Allowed to book in early and got our room. Fantastic after a long flight. Left luggage on day we were leaving but they let us shower when we came back to collect our bags. Worth it

We booked a 2 bedroom unit for 6 adults. It was spacious and cosy. The customer service and wifi were great. Perhaps the sofa and dining table could be replaced with new ones. Nonetheless, it was a pleasant stay for 2 nights :)

Very noisy as it is located on a "cruising" street. Street rods racing all night. It's so bad the hotel even provided ear plugs in the room.

The Admiral Motel is about a 20 minute walk to the center of Christchurch and the Botanic Gardens. We stayed here two nights and walked to everything we did in Christchurch. The owner of the motel told us about a festival taking place in the Botanic Gardens, which we enjoyed the first evening of our arrival. He also suggested a good local restaurant just down the road, and the lamb shank meal we had there was very tender and tasty. Both were good recommendations. The motel itself is very nicely equipped with a kitchenette. We would certainly come back to the Admiral Motel on our next trip to Christchurch.
