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.

My room and bathroom were very clean and I found the bed comfortable. The highlight was the reception. He was so friendly and helpful. I had a good sized room for a very cheap price and the location is perfect in nice walking distance to town but very quiet. They serviced the room and replaced the towels and tea bags and cleaned the cups and glasses. I would stay there again.

We stayed her for only one night as we transited across the South Island, and we were so glad to have chosen Centrepoint rather than an airport motel. The location is brilliant with only a short walk to central ChCh, and an equally short stroll to Victoria Street eateries. The room was very clean and comfortable, and well-equipped for breakfast preparation. It was also delightfully quiet for an inner city motel, having both double glazing and blackout curtains. We'd be very happy to stay here again.

We stayed one night in a deluxe studio unit (accessible) it was very spacious, clean, warm and had everything we required. Disabled parking handy to unit and room in unit for use of small Travel scoot Friendly hosts breakfast available if required. Very quiet unit and great blackout curtains. Good rubbish/compost systems in place, too!

The decor (lamps, fixtures, sink, everything!) is outdated, 60s, and carpet is very worn. Room was clean. DO NOT LET TJIS HOTEL assist with transfers! They arranged our train station pickup but, of course, train was 15 minutes late then took us 12 minutes to disembark and collect luggage. We waited an additional 30 minutes before taking another taxi because we weren’t told they’d only wait 5 minutes after published arrival time! Also, unbeknownst to us, hotel charged 3% fee for paying with credit card although we had “fully paid” on Hotel.com per our booking!

We booked this hotel for two nights and two days before our travel our ferry crossing was cancelled. We rescheduled for a future date and contacted the hotel to request the new dates. After two failed calls, one where they said they would called back but did not do so, we received an email to say that we needed to pay for our original booking in full and they could accommodate us for the new nights but at a higher rate effectively charging us more than twice. We called and after a frustrating conversation we asked to speak with the manager. We were refused and the person hung up. Our experience feels very similar to captan10 above. I recommend choosing any hotel rather than this one. We had to reschedule 10 bookings across the Sth Island as a result of the ferry cancellation. This was the only one who behaved like this.

booking and confirmation were a breeze, no complicated questions or insecurities. after arrival we were aware that we had received a free of charge room upgrade. the room was nice, clean and complete for our stay. The room had a king size bed and the room is fully double glazed and with a heat pump to get as comfy as we liked.

The owners are very friendly and helpful. even after we told them we had a little accident and spilled coffee on the carpet he wasn't angry but kept his cool and cleaned the carpet while we went for a walk.

To make this story not a never ending story. we like to thank Leon and his wife for the hospitality and the service. also we would go there again in a heartbeat.
Good place to stay. FYI, we spend two nights here and enjoyed all of it.

Nice and very clean hotel room. Small kitchen with microwave, toaster and kettle. Clean bathroom, towels and bed linen. Bed really comfortable. The heating system is working well. The host is extremely happy and helpful. We felt very welcome :-) It’s about 10 min walk to the center of Christchurch, and 1-5 min to the bus going to the airport.

Stayed for only one night but would have liked to stay longer. Leon is a friendly and very helpful motel owner. He helpfully called a cab for us on checkout and lent us a great big umbrella the night before which was useful when it started to rain on our way home. The room was also surprisingly big for a Studio. It was truly value for money and will consider returning the next time I am in Christchurch!

We recently spent 3 nights at CentrePoint on Columbo Motel and were very pleased with the whole experience. The owners were very helpful, changing our accommodation to a ground floor unit, which was very well suited to us. The unit was very well equipped, spotlessly clean and clean towels supplied daily. The motel is within walking distance to the main centre, has good parking and security. We would recommend this hotel and intend to stay again on our future return to Christchurch. Thank you for a most enjoyable visit.

We've probably stayed here a dozen times now and it is always a solid choice. Easy parking right outside the motel rooms, a 10 minute walk into town and rooms that have pretty much all you need in a motel.

Yes there are a few items in the rooms that could updating and you should expect practical rather than fancy, but it's a good and easy option for your stay. Run by friendly staff and with SKY TV included in your room.

Hi, how much do you charge for the airport shuttle service per person? Thanks.
Answer from Centrepoint1
Christchurch
Hi and thanks for the question - I know the answer! 1 person is $24, 2 people are $29 and from then on add $5 for each extra person, or an exclusive charter is $75. (all prices are current when this email was written and are subject to change at any time and without notice - because we don't control the pricing) Hope that helps! btw, taxis from the airport are +-$50 btw,btw, a local bus can cost as little as $4 per person.....

From my experience, the motel does not provide transport to the train station. However, they will supply you with detailed directions, which are necessary, as it's tricky to find.
Answer from Centrepoint1
Christchurch
There are 3 options for transport from the airport. City bus #29 leaves the airport twice an hour, costs $8 and stops just 80 metres from the motel entrance. SuperShuttle is $24 for 1 person and will drop you off at the motel entrance. Taxis are $50+ Hope this helps your planning.

Does the hotel has a car park for stay-in guests? If yes, how much is the car parking charge per night?
Answer from Centrepoint1
Christchurch
Yes, there is car parking onsite. One car park for each room. There is no charge for car parking. It is free! That is just one of the wonderful things of choosing to stay in a motel as opposed to most other types of accommodation options! Remember to book direct (on the motel website) for the best accommodation deal.
