“Friendly and helpful”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 February 2012

A very comfortable motel with really friendly and helpful hosts who had lots of useful information about the up-to-date situation in the city and nearby facilities. It is very close to the fenced-off CBD and close to the temporary InterCity bus stop. They were also happy to keep my suitcase for me as I was travelling south for 5 days before coming back to Christchurch for a further night.

Stayed December 2011, travelled solo

“A good experience in a sad city”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 February 2012

We selected Centre Point ourselves when the travel company's selected hotel was condemned by the earthquake. We had no idea what to expect but found that this family run motel made its guests feel important and did everything they could to make our stay comfortable and as enjoyable as could be expecetd in such a sad and devastated city.
We had roomy comfortable accomodation on the two nights we had with Jeff and Naomi and they were extremely helpful when we had a late departure flight.
You will get good advice on where to visit,what to see and where to eat. Book Centre Point with confidence.

“Great location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 February 2012

Great small hotel close to central Christchurch. Quiet complex with clean rooms. Offstreet parking, but not undercover. Friendly hosts with plenty of recomendations for sightseeing and eateries.
Fenced off area of the CBD was at the end of the street and Casino was in walking distance.

“Excellent all round!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

We had a fantastic stay and wish it was for longer! The property owners were particularly helpful with our needs and very friendly which made us feel like we were regulars even though it was just the one nights stay. Really liked the recycling program, very comfortable quality room fittings, and the personal know how and advice. Thoroughly recommended to all, and we wish Jeff and Naomi all the best. We shall definitely come back here when we stay in CHCH again.
