Top Little Akaloa Hotel Reviews

Drifter Christchurch

8/10 Good

"Good location and shared facilities were decent. Nice restaurant in building and whilst chargeable, parking was convenient opposite."

Tresori Motor Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, close to the waterfront , coffee shops for your morning fix and affordable and more up market restaurants. Friendly and accommodating staff. Kitchen has a range of options if you wanted to cook food, although it would be a little cramped but idea for breakfast."

BreakFree on Cashel Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"Travel to Christchurch bi-monthly on Thursdays for work, stay at the Commodore for first night (work pays). Then I stay the weekend at the Ramada. Last week I couldn't get into the Ramada on Tuam. So booked in at the Breakfree. I was pleasantly surprised. Dbl bed, internal glass corner bathroom. Bed very comfortable, and pitch black when lights are off as no windows. Great shower and good linen and towels stayed 3 nights. Right in town so walking distance to CBD, Arts preccinct, great food selection and Riverside markets. I ate out 3 days for breakfast, so can't comment on buffet breakfast. Looks good and will try it next time. Staff friendly and housekeeping. Highly reccommend this jem."

Southwark Hotel & Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful new apartments. We had a twin room with one of the only balconies, overlooking the courtyard garden. Very clean & well appointed, even a double headed showers. Courtyard had bean bags to enjoy the sun & quiet along with Ring Toss & Connect 4 games ... a bit of fun!. Also attached to my new favourite cafe, "Unknown Chapter Coffee Roasters". Amazing, menu & cabinet food & coffee!. That was a bonus!"

Quest on Manchester

10/10 Excellent

"Booked several rooms for myself and colleagues for a few nights, and we were all very impressed. The hotel was spotlessly clean, comfortable and excellent value for money. What really stood out was the staff — every member of the team was exceptionally friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. A great experience all round, and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. Highly recommended!"

La Rochelle Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Spent 2 days at La Rochelle and it was amazing. Clean comfortable and spacious room. We stayed on the ground floor which we requested. Nic helped us get information on the dolphin cruise and by mentioning that we were staying with them we received a discount. As it was the long weekend we couldn’t extend our stay we them, however Nic helped us book other accommodation. If you are coming to Akaroa stay here but be quick as I am sure they will be booked out. Thanks Nic and Kerry you helped make our holiday to New Zealand a 5 star experience."

Rydges Latimer Christchurch

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful staff who could not do enough to help."

The Muse Christchurch, Art Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful decor and comfortable room. Such a great location to explore the central city on foot with plenty of great places to eat nearby. Great bonus of having The Pink Lady cocktail bar on the top floor and the Dainty Cafe on the ground floor!"

Akaroa Village Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location and views. To benefit from the views you do have to access the top units via a number of steps. the door lock key on our unit was difficult to use to open the door."
