Bella Vista Motel & Apartments Christchurch

The Bella Vista is located on the fringe of the Christchurch CBD, which makes it easy to find and central to a lot of places. The CBD is an easy (and flat) 20 minute walk, plus there are shops and very good eating places in various directions, all within a 15 to 20 minute walk. The complex is immaculately presented and the hosts are attentive and friendly. We stayed in a Queen room. It's compact, but cleverly designed to make the most of the space. We appreciated the table and comfortable sitting chairs. All rooms at Bella Vista have a good little kitchenette. The bathroom was small, but worked well. Our only challenge was where to put two suitcases, as there was little floor space. The hotel is on a busy road and it is fairly noisy in the early evening and morning, but apart from the occasional sirens and hoons, it's not a problem. Our only complaint is the level of light in the room at night that disturbed our rest. The curtains were private, but were inadequate to block the strong external lights. The door was also semi-transparent and introduced a lot of light. This seems to be a common problem with motels these days, but could be simply solved with heavier drapes. We recommend the Bella Vista as a great place to stay in a beautiful city and would definitely stay there again.

We had a small studio suite but it was convenient. It was a Friday and Saturday night so the traffic was pretty noisy til about 1 am. Beds were comfortable, wifi good, very clean. Could walk to downtown area.

Last night in New Zealand 5th Bella Visa hotels, this one was a lot smaller than the other hotels, but it was clean & tidy and the Lady on Reception was very helpful and booked us a taxi, which we thought was very kind

The staff at Bella Vista were very friendly and helpful, the place was clean and in a good location just 15-20 minutes walk from the city centre. I'd definitely recommend it, it was nice and quiet too.

Lovely place to stay in, unit was very tidy and clean, location is great being so close to town. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again when back in Christchurch.

Very clean and spacious apar**ent, very helpful personnel at the reception. Clean laundry facilities.

Great place to stay. Recommend and would stay there again. Very friendly and helpful hosts. Our apar**ent had everything we needed, was warm and cosy. Very comfy beds and pillows and plenty of hot water for the showers.

Clean and welcoming - the basic Bella Vista experience - ideal for the night before flying from the airport. Thank you. The WiFi not strong but we have had worse. Everything for a stop over - can recommend but not as a destination

I booked the compact studio and wow it's the smallest room I've ever been in. Alright for an overnight stay for one person but I wouldn't want to be in it for longer. Lovely bathroom and bed; not a fan of eating a meal while seated at a bench beneath the TV. Each room has its own car parking space.
