Hotels With parking in Canterbury, New Zealand

It was very cold in the mornings and evenings. There was a heater, but it was too drying for us to use. It's a bit far from the center of Twizel, about a 5-minute drive from the Four Square supermarket. I was really impressed by how thorough they were, sending detailed emails about Wi-Fi, check-in, and nearby supermarkets! The access to Mount Cook was much better than staying in Tekapo, so it's a really convenient location for anyone who wants to finish the Mount Cook trails before noon.

The front desk was very welcoming, energetic and polite. Big room with all facilities. My partner and I had a lovely evening.

I was a bit disappointed. I was expecting this to be a 5 star place, but there were a lot of things that were definitely not 5 stars. The robes were grey and didn't cover bigger people. One of them had pilling all over it, I didn't want to even wear it. The bathroom door squeaked loudly, so if one person got up to the toilet in the middle of the night, it woke the other person up. There were instructions on how to use the spa bath, but not on how to put the plug in. It didn't just plug in normally. We weren't able to use it on our first night which was very frustrating as it was one of our main attractions. I rang housekeeping the next day. Someone came and had a look and said that you had to turn a know on the side of the spa, how would anyone know that? The lock on the door to outside was broken and a small slide lock had been put on. Why not fix the main lock? I used the toilets to the side of the library and when I washed my hands, the tap was all loose and wobbled round. All these things are little but show that the lodge needs to have things fixed or updated. For $300 per night, you expect the best. The worse thing was on our last morning, we got to breakfast about 8:45, the restaurant closes at 9:30 am. There was continental and scrambled eggs and bacon. At about 9:00 am they stopped bringing out anymore bread to toast. No more croissants, eggs or bacon were brought out. There were about 6 tables with guests and everyone kept going up and checking, but they didn't refill. People were saying, they must have run out of food! But for some reason the waiter kept lifting the lids to the egg and bacon to see what was in there, but of course there was nothing as he hadn't refilled it and he was the only waiter!! I was really disappointed and wouldn't recommend it, unless you are getting a really good discount.

We stayed for 3 nights. Location is wonderful. 3 min walk to Regent Street where we ate our meals for 3 days straight. New modern vibe. However, during the 3 nights, every night there is few min of power outage, blackout in the room. Wat are the chances? I ask the counter but they hv no explanation.

The pod itself is incredibly cozy, featuring a thick blackout blind, personal power outlets, and a little fan. The absolute highlight for me was their massive hangout area. It is an absolutely awesome space to chill, work, or meet people, featuring a great vibe, comfortable seating, and fun activities. Location is perfect! KFC, McDonald's, and local eateries are just few mins away. The walk to the airport terminal takes only 10 minutes on a completely flat, smooth road—super easy even for a midnight flight.

Stayed at Wyndham Garden Christchurch and overall had a very good experience. The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The breakfast was decent, with a reasonable selection to start the day. The location was convenient and the facilities were well maintained. A couple of minor drawbacks were that complimentary bottled water was not provided in the room, and parking costs an additional $20 per night, which would have been nice to have included. Overall, a pleasant stay and I would happily consider staying here again.

Perched on a small hill in the heart of Tekapo, this is one of many similar, newer houses in the development. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking, though adding a rice cooker and more condiments would make it even better.

The location is fantastic! It's convenient for getting everywhere. The cathedral is right downstairs, and it's not far from the lakeside market or the Cardboard Cathedral, all within walking distance. The sightseeing bus stop is also close by, and the Avon River gondola rides are nearby too. Taking a taxi to the Botanic Gardens, the University of Canterbury School of Fine Arts, and the art gallery isn't far either. Both New Brighton Pier and Sumner Beach are about 10 kilometers away by taxi, similar to the distance to the airport, and Uber fares are reasonable. Overall, I'm satisfied. Just a minor note, it seemed like the shampoo and other amenities weren't checked and might have run out without being noticed.

This hotel stay was an absolute delight, offering the perfect blend of convenience, stunning views, and high-quality amenities. The location right by the waterfront was simply breathtaking, and the proximity to the whale watching center was an added bonus. While the unit was on the second floor, which required carrying our luggage upstairs, the view from the elevated position was well worth it. There was also the option of requesting a ground floor unit if stairs are a concern. The check-in and check-out process was a breeze, with clear instructions provided and a designated key return box for added convenience. Having an assigned parking space just outside the unit was also a thoughtful touch. But the true highlight of this hotel stay was the shower. The water pressure and temperature control were absolutely perfect, making for a luxurious and refreshing experience. And being able to watch the sunrise from the unit was the icing on the cake. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a tranquil, waterfront retreat with top-notch amenities and stunning views. The combination of the convenient location, well-appointed unit, and exceptional shower made this an unforgettable stay.

A great hotel! Excellent value for money, with beautiful scenery. It's about a ten-minute walk from Lake Tekapo, located on the edge of town, making it very quiet. The room heating is excellent, and the air conditioning works really well, so it's not cold even in winter. The gentleman who checked me in and the lady who checked me out were both very warm and friendly. The room was well-equipped with blankets, a hairdryer, a microwave, and cutlery. However, there were no slippers, toothpaste, or toothbrushes, so you need to bring your own. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay, and I would definitely come back if I have the chance! 💙
