Best Western Alpine Hotel, Christchurch

Getting accomodation that enables one to get a good nights sleep can be an issue, it definitely was not the case here. No 4:30am rubbish collection !! The room was comfortable and clean, there was enough stuff in the kitchenette for us to prepare our own breakfasts and lunches. Having secure off street parking was great although for large vehicles it takes a bit of manoeuvring as there isn't a lot of space.

Accommodation is close to the airport, to the centre 15 min drive by car. There is also public transport. Renovated rooms, but lacked the bed side electrical plugs. Good stay for couple of nights, parking is available.

On arrival I was concerned about parking as the motel is on a very busy road. However there is a 10 minute drop off spot right out the front and free secure parking in the building. I was greeted by a friendly helpful receptionist who went out of her way to be helpful. The room was such a surprise - modern, clean and well appointed with a lovely bathroom. At the price and in the location I wasn't expecting a high standard. It was perfect for us the night before having to be at the airport at 4.30 the next morning. We decided to eat at the attached pub. Service (including friendly customers) was friendly and welcoming. However, all the seating was tall barstools and I could not sit. We decided to order our very reasonably priced food as takeaway and took it up to our room. The meals were well priced, well cooked and generous. Check out was very straight forward as we left before reception was open and just had to put our keys in a lock box.

We stayed here in August and loved it, staff and especially management were so helpful nothing was a problem. The rooms are clean and of good size real value for money. Location is really good for eating, their are dozens of restaurants just a short walk supermarket across the road, close to the air port and inner city major shopping mall just down the road (Riccarton Mall) perfect place to stay. We will be going back. Kevan and Veta Tucker

The entrance and reception area of this hotel are very unassuming and strange. The staff were friendly and helpful and the room was spotless and of good size. However we had a small outside area off our room and couldn't unlock the door to go out there. It had high walls and no view in any case but there were two chairs out there. The garage parking was accessed by a back alley full of rubbish bins and the area around the hotel was a bit seedy. Definitely not an attractive hotel but was close to the airport and suited our purposes of catching an early flight out of Christchurch.

I stayed here on a work trip recently and was greeted by the owner on arrival. He was really friendly, had a genuine warmth about him and couldn't do more to help. My room looked very modern and was really clean. The bed was comfortable, the shower had great pressure, and everything worked as it should. I would definitely stay again

Here the receptionist is good. Smile everyone. Unlimited internet. Clean room. Bedsheets, pillowcases, blankets are clean. Everything in the room is very comfortable. I've been everywhere in CHC. Here is the most comfortable. There is a parking lot too.

Inspite of my unscheduled arrival at 6am, the manager was very kind to get out of bed to let me into the hotel. He was even happy to arrange a room for me for a small fee so that I could rest after my long flight.

Really nice hotel clean room with plenty of space, perfect for a family of 3 but our room was overlooking the busy road that didn't stop all night and we just go no sleep. It would be worth asking for a quieter room.

This Hotel has the most Amazing Management and Staff I found they gave exceptional service and went out of their way to make my stay comfortable.I have stayed many times and every time has been the same.I would highly recommend this hotel
