"The best thing about this Haka in Christchurch is its super close proximity to the Botanic Gardens. Basically, you just cross the street and you're there. As for cleanliness, it's neither outstanding nor bad. The triple room had a bunk bed plus a single bed, with the single bed facing the window. Compared to other Haka accommodations, the layout here felt a bit cramped. Also, the bunk beds in this Haka weren't as sturdy as those in Queenstown and Wanaka – they creaked quite a bit when getting on or off. However, this Haka has plenty of bathrooms, one in the triple room itself and three more outside on the floor, which is really convenient."

With a stay at Lakes Edge Lodge in Lake Tekapo, you'll be within a 15-minute walk of Tekapo Springs and Lake Tekapo.

Free self parking is available onsite. Make yourself at home in one of the 20 guestrooms. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.

"Great location right by a beautiful lake — perfect for the scenery. The accommodation was generally clean and comfortable, and the bathroom in particular was well-maintained. The kitchen is well-equipped with plenty of pots, pans, cutlery, crockery, a toaster, and microwave. However, some of the cookware could use a proper clean as there is burnt residue on them, and a few of the stovetops don’t work reliably. Cleanliness could be improved overall, as there was some rubbish under the bed. The walls are quite thin, so noise can be an issue — you can hear people walking up and down, as well as doors banging from guests coming in and out of rooms. It’s worth noting that guests need to bring their own towels, make their own beds on arrival, and strip the sheets before leaving. Overall, a pleasant stay in a fantastic location, with just a few practical improvements needed."

I loved staying there and highly recommend to any traveler looking for a funky and reasonably priced accommodation."

"The location is unbeatable; it's less than 100 meters walk from the Intercity bus stop. The hostel's exterior with its large glass windows reflecting the lake is stunning, and the interior has high ceilings, making it feel very spacious. However, the cleaning is not done promptly, and the lobby floor was dirty. Rooms 2, 3, and 4 are very close to the bathroom, and the door kept slamming all night, making it impossible to sleep well. It's acceptable for a one-night stay, but only for the beautiful views of Tekapo."

GGuest UserMy friends and I had a great stay at The Bealey Quarter! The motel is situated in Christchurch City, allowing easy access to the tourist sites, whether you're travelling on foot, by car, or by public transport. There are plenty of buses and metro buses that frequently stop right near the accommodation as well! The staff were very friendly. We had a late flight (that got delayed even later) and ended up having to check in after hours. They were very accommodating with this, and similarly, when we asked for new towels, we received them immediately. Similarly, they were kind enough to allow us to put our luggage in their reception office whilst we went to collect our rental car on the day that we checked out. My only issue is that I had to contact them a few times before I received the late check-in details. The facilities were lovely. and very clean! The bathroom was private with a shower with good pressure and hot water. The bench and the toilet were a little high, which we were surprised by, but this wasn't a major issue at all! My only recommendation would be to add a ventilation fan to the bathroom, as although there is an open window above the sink, ventilation was still not ideal. The room came with a heater, a really good fan, and very comfy blankets and duvets. We were also provided with glasses and mugs, a selection of tea, coffee, and hot chocolate, a hair dryer, a bin, a little cupboard, desk, chair, and even a bench where our suitcases fit really well. The view of the courtyard was beautiful despite the somewhat miserable weather, and access to the courtyard via the back door meant we could use the hammocks in the nice grassy area :) The back door was a bit tough to open, and we had to actually get the staff to show us how to use it. My only other qualm is that there is no potable water in the rooms themselves. Instead, our keycard allows us to the Lodge (I believe the hostel area), where there's a kitchen and we can fill up. Overall, we had a great experience here and I definitely recommend the Bealey Quarter to anyone coming to Christchurch. It was so affordable too :)) I didn't get many good photos but here you go!

GGuest UserI had a cosy and comfortable stay. The friendly staff at the reception offered a complimentary shuttle to the airport next morning, a service which I had not realized was available. The staff truly went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. Thoughtful gestures included offering a bottle of fresh milk, which was an unexpected but lovely touch, as well as assistance in carrying of luggage to both room and on board shuttle van. All these small acts of kindness made me feel so welcomed, especially on my last night in New Zealand. :)

Hhxyz- Aoraki Court is our favourite accommodation out of the 7 we booked for our NZ trip. - amazing view of Mt Cook from the room (do wake up for sunrise, sunrise view is definitely worth it while having breakfast in the room). - car is right outside the room (allocated lot). - room is cozy and spacious. - able to stargaze right outside the room on a clear night. - bonus if you love animals. there are 2 ducks always roaming around.

ZZT1990The motel room is very clean, the car also has a place to park, not far from the city center, and overall is good. The only thing is that the sound insulation is not very good. We live in a small villa facing the street. The single-story glass on the second floor is a bit noisy when there is a big car. But still recommended, the Chinese at the front desk are more lax
