Great location close to town and park was the highlight , worked great for an inner city concert and a couple of nights.. However quite a bit of traffic noise and looked a bit knocked around , tv channels couldn’t access, bit pricey relative to other places we have stayed .

This villa was very clean and full of good equipment. The most favorite point was very near to Hargley park.

Advance information

The property was ideally located and comfortable. The balcony needed a clean as it looked like it hadn't been done for a while. Also should have been advised about potential building work next door as being woken at 7am with builders on a saturday was a bit much. Would rebook if visiting the city again.

Comfortable apartment

We had 5 nights in Christchurch and stayed at this apartment. The apartment was comfortable and clean (except the patio and oven). I alerted the management team that the patio needed cleaning. They were happy to attend to this during our stay. I felt it was unnecessary to do so. I neglected though to mention the state of oven. We like apartments that are very close to the city and close to supermarkets and shops. I found this apartment a little further away from the city than we usually like. That being the case, we worked out the bus system and the bus stopped very close by. There was a supermarket about 20 minutes walk away. We loved Christchurch. Beautiful city and wonderful people.

Nearby Haglay Park for everyday walking and excellent shopping mall for groceries.

Best of all, it's close to the wonderful Hagley Park, and you'll be greeted with the sounds of birds in the morning. You can enjoy city life very close to the city cent in 30 minutes on foot. There is a dishwasher and a washer/dryer in the room, which is very convenient. The kitchen and living room are also clean.

Noise Monitoring & Consideration for Neighbours
This apartment is equipped with a noise monitoring device in the living area. The monitor measures sound levels only – it does not record conversations – and helps ensure a comfortable environment for all residents in the building.

We ask that you please be mindful of your noise levels, particularly during the building’s quiet hours of 10:00 pm to 8:00 am, and avoid loud music, parties, or disruptive behaviour. As this is a shared residential complex, respecting other residents’ peace and privacy is essential.

Thank you for helping us keep the building a safe and enjoyable place for everyone.
