Highly recommend Fyffe Motor Lodge, service was fantastic and George couldn't do enough to help. Location is great, close to everything. Riccarton Mall is close by and on the main road however no traffic noise.

Clean and pretty quiet. We stayed 1 night here just passing through. I would recommend staying here if you want somewhere clean and affordable. The staff were very friendly, the room had cooking facilties and is within walking distance of a supermarket

This was my second stay at Fyffe on Riccarton, having first stayed with my 2 children in December 2012. This time I stayed with my Mum and sister on a visit to our hometown of Christchurch. We had a lovely stay in a 2 bedroom apartment (number 705). It is away from the noise of Riccarton Road, and very nice... More

The room is of reasonable size, one king bed and a roll out bed in the lounge, 2 TVs with freeview and sky plus a... More

Professional and courteous customer service, facilities and furnishings appear to be brand new, tasteful decor and furnishings, compact but comprehensively equipped studio rooms with plenty of workspace for business travelers, immaculate bathroom facilities. Location is ideal, whatever the purpose for your stay, and rooms were warm, quiet and very comfortable. Free WiFi was an excellent 'extra'. External stairs and balconies... More

Very well appointed studio unit which was quiet even though the Motel is situated on a main road. Access and parking was easy The Manager was very helpful and friendly Only negative comment - the tile floor on entry was slippery when it was wet

I stayed in a studio apartment in Feb 2013, beds incredibly comfortable, great selection of channels, quiet, service polite and professional... And was also struck at how well maintained the place looked. Also very well priced given the high demand on motels at the moment... Wifi was also a huge and very welcome bonus!
