Stayed in this unit 2 nights but found it reasonably quiet given it is on a busy main road. The owners were pleasant and very helpful. The unit itself was snug but clean and comfortable with all the amenities I required.The price was very good value for what we got. I would be happy to stay there again. Given that... More

Was much better than I expected and the managers couldn't have been more helpful - replenished all the milk tea and coffee without question when I ran out in the first afternoon, and helped arrange a great evening meal (chinese) that was delivered to the door without any additional costs. I had ended up here by accident but would certainly... More

Initially disappointed by reception person on arrival as he did not seem to have much of a clue about what was going on. Later on the service improved as his parents (the owners) came back and took care of my needs. Small family-run motel, right in the heart of busy Upper Riccarton with excellent access to the local shopping precinct... More

Basic but good quality motel accommodation run by friendly couple. Free high speed internet and free laundry stong plus points. Comfortable bed, large-ish rooms, good cooking facilities & efficient shower. Located at end of Riccarton Road remote from Christchurch City, but regular bus passes front of hotel. Downsides - road busy/noisy during the day (but not at night) & construction... More

We stayed in Feb 2010 and found the hosts to be friendly and helpful, the location easy and convenient to access and loved the fact that we could be self-sufficient (having the kitchenette). Great price, clean and in fact we are going back for 2 weeks in November. More

We stayed at Ascot Vale for 6 days during March. The owners were very obliging from the moment we arrived. They were friendly and helpful without being obtrusive. Handy to Riccarton Mall and a short walk to Bush Inn also just around the corner from the University. More

Needed to be near uni & my usual motel was full, so looked for one nearby. Ascot Vale offered FREE broadband access, which is a HUGE plus to me, so I chose it site unseen. the manager was outstanding -- extremely helpful & responsive to every minor request. Another plus: a spotlessly clean FREE laundry. We had a separate bedroom,... More
