Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Riccarton Mall isn't a bad place to spend a few hours. There are a good range of shops and some decent specials. I have to give special mention to the Jacqui E store, where my wife received really great service from the shop assistant during late Dec 21. She couldn't have been more attentive and helpful!

Visit here all the time, going into many shops, have hand sanitizer everywhere and COVID app to scan incase the worse happens. Great variety of shops and food areas. Great undercover parking and disabled access and good parents rooms for mum and dads and the little ones

We went to Westfield Riccarton today, with the intention of having lunch and doing some shopping. Much of the car parking is currently cordoned off, on several levels. We were unable to find a park. There were dozens of cars just going round and round in circles, looking for parks. We gave up and went to Northlands instead. Car parking at Westfield has always been difficult, but now the situation is totally ridiculous. Would love to know how long there is going to be such minimal car parking available. We will not be returning to Westfield Riccarton until we know the situation has improved.

Watch the car park on the ground floor near the shops! The car park sharks issue tickets very quickly. Evidently some parks are only for ONE hour! Cant spend any length of time resting in coffee shops in mall after parking. So just be aware not all parks have the same time limits.

As we live out of town I try and make the most of my trip to Westfields. I was so looking forward to a day at the mall. I arrived just after 10am sat down and have a coffee to plan my day. Firstly I had my nails done, wonderful, then I went shopping and bought some clothes, knickknacks for my kitchen, feeling better by the minute. I had a nice lunch and then spent the rest of my time having my hair done. I was their approximately 4.5 hours. I left feeling amazing until I got to my car. I was absolutely disgusted to find a parking ticket on my car. If you think I could or even want to cram all that into two hours I WONT BE BACK. I am really shocked at the shops in the mall allowing this to happen. I will take my hard earned money elsewhere next time.

A wide array of shops with a food court to provide please even the fussiest of eaters. Great place for a daytime shopping trip. The holiday kids activities are always a hit and provide fantastic entertainment for the littlies. It's best to visit early in the morning to guarantee a car park on the level you wish.

I walked here from my hotel, so I didn't have the parking issues about which some are complaining. Every other store here seems to be a shoe store, so plenty of those if you need shoes. There is also a supermarket and a Japanese supermarket. At the opposite end are a store and restaurant I visited. I bought an All Blacks jersey from Rebel, the one souvenir I was determined to buy in NZ. We also had dinner at the recently opened Malaysian restaurant PappaRich. Both are recommended.

Don’t do your photos at Riccarton Mall, worst wait I have ever had and we have been coming for 8 years. They are getting you to pick photos with the photographer not at the sales point. Soooo slow is an understatement. Worst service I’ve ever had here. Over an hour wait for 4 families ahead of us!!

Fantastic mall with a great food court and alot of shops all under one roof, something to cater to everyone. Can get busy, but still a great place to shop. A huge amount of parking in a multi level car park.

Hi
I'm staying at the Quest Hotel Elms on Papanui Rd. Can I get a bus from there to near Westfield Riccarton? Secondly, how long would it take for an average regular walker to walk there? I'm coming to NZ for a walking holiday!
Thanks

Im also visitor to Christchurch, NZ. However, we do rented out a car to drive around the city. It will be much convenient for tourist, as long as you have an international license and internet access (in order to access Google Map or any driving app such as Waze). Have fun!
