I stayed for two nights in April on business and reception was very kind, booking my airport shuttle, printing for me last minute and making sure I had good wifi. I explored a bit and just down the road is a cafe, Strange Bandit, with delicious food, coffee and nice seating indoors and outdoors (a must during covid times!)
This place is very close to the airport and the rooms are very clean, modern, well appointed and comfortable. Unfortunately our initial approach by phone was answered by an extremely terse and frankly rude lady who perhaps I should have terminated the call and tried somewhere else, but that would have actually deprived us of staying at what was an excellent motel. My only observation in her defense would be that it was during the latest level 3 lockdown in Christchurch and perhaps that effected her judgement. Nonetheless hopefully she will read this review and perhaps reflect on her telephone manner and realise that being in a service industry job she cannot talk to prospective guests in that way. I have scored this motel 4 despite this outburst because of the quality of the rooms.…
We arrived on midnight flight and selected Gold Band taxi to motel as recommended by manager in order to receive 10% discount. Cost from airport to motel over $20 – not sure if or where discount was applied there. The room was a little disappointing, smaller than anticipated and large cobweb hanging from ceiling in kitchen, right in the middle of passageway. We were kept awake the rest of the night and next morning by a bright outside light shining in from the motels next door, but mostly due to excessive traffic noise. Trucks and cars obviously using Roydvale Ave as major thoroughfare from around 4am onwards. Manager was very good however and took us to airport the next day in the shuttle free of charge, so please don’t be put off staying there. Maybe just take earplugs and sleeping mask! …
Stayed two nights here. Nice modern studio, well equipped kitchen and good shower. Outside area for sitting (if it hadn’t been so chilly). Free shuttle to the airport and two local buses stop nearby into Christchurch ($4.20)- number 29 and Purple line. Only negative for us was that our front door was onto the car park and we were woken on both mornings by people leaving early and talking loudly outside/ bikers and their bikes.
We booked a 1 bedroom suite. It was clean, functional and sufficiently spacious. Not expensive, not cheap but reasonable value. The hotel offers a free airport shuttle and you can use the airport shuttle to get to the nearby International Antarctic Centre - definitely worth a visit. The best thing about Airport Delta Motel? The fast wifi - 20Mbps down and about the same up!
Loved our stay at Airport Delta! The owners are wonderful people who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. Rooms are clean and spacious with everything you need. Will definitely visit again!!!
Great studio unit, larger than expected. Extremely clean and everything required for 4 night stay. Quiet location close to airport, restaurants and still not too far from the city and shopping centres. Would happily recommend and will definitely return when next in Christchurch, value for money with friendly host - 5 stars!
Stayed recently in a spacious 2 bedroom apartment.Tastefully decorated.Very clean and lovely comfy beds.Great kitchen complete with dishwasher and decent sized dining table.Coming back here again soon!
I booked online. When we arrived at 10 pm, the owner/manager said he did not have a reservation for me. When I showed him my email confirmation, he proceeded to have me step behind the counter and look at his "reservation screen" on his computer and said, "your name is not here--you do not have a reservation". We had to have a taxi drive us around to find an open hotel late at night. Found one for double the price. Booking.com did not refund the full payment of $115USD I had already made because the owner of Airport Delta Motel told Booking.com that we DID stay there. What a liar! Never been so disappointed in an online booking site or accommodation. This hotel is a scam. They should be put out of business.
Stayed here for 2 nights and the unit was fabulous. Clean, warm and had everything we needed. Staff were friendly and reasonable price. Can even leave your car there whilst we are away for 2 weeks and get picked up from the airport when we return. We will definitely be staying here again.
