Ashleigh Court Motel

My wife & I have travelled to Christchurch for the New Zealand Cup Horse Racing Carnival in most recent years, since the Covid Pandemic wained. The Ashleigh Court Motel is tucked away in a leafy, quite suburban street & the only traffic noise we heard was the Wednesday morning Garbage Truck emptying the Garbage & Re-cycle Bins but that noise only lasted a few minutes. Last year we stayed @ a Motel on Riccarton Rd & it was a wee bit noisy. The lack of traffic noise @ The Ashleigh Court Motel is a real blessing, especially if you are a light sleeper. We stayed in a 2 Bedroom Apartment which had a few stairs to gain access, however the apartment had all the facilities that one needs to be self supporting, the apartment even had it's own washing machine. There is plenty of easy access Off-Street Parking so there are no "someone's taken our space" parking hassles. Would stay @ Ashleigh Court again no problems, I even spoke to the Manager regarding the possibility.

With all the serenity one might think all is perfect, however if you do not have a vehicle, you are staying in accommodation that is a 15 minute walk away from the shops @ Riccarton Mall & the Metro Transit Hub. A minor hiccup was the Hot Water Pressure for the apartment's shower, but the peaceful environment makes up for a lack of a little water pressure.

The location is set off from noisy main roads but so close to the city. There is a short walk through some beautiful parks, and gardens that are well signposted. You arrive at the edge of the city and two blocks up you are in central area where all your tourists attraction information and buses leave from. The accommodation is excellent. Well maintained and very comfortable. Lots of room and excellent kitchen facilities. The owners had city maps and pointed out quick walk to major shopping sites and to city. This was our last stop and truly amazing.

The location was extremely quiet, exceptionally clean and yet very central to everything. It was like being in the country, yet you were in the middle of the city. Lots of lighting inside the motel and outside the motel and an extremely safe location. Overall, excellent value for money as very hard to find a quiet motel in the middle of the city that is central to everything.

Great location, easy check in, unit old but nicely refurbished, tea, coffee, milk all there. Nice quiet neighborhood.

Bed was a little firm - a mattress topper would have made it more comfortable. One of my facecloths had some hair stuck to it from previous tenant but I feel that was likely a one-off problem as the second day everything was fine.

Nice room with kitchen and lounge. Close to restaurants and Asian groceries. Not far from the city centre. Helpful staff.

Very friendly staff. I loved the use of free clothes wash facility. Spotlessly clean and spacious living areas too

It was good value for the price and parking was excellent

There were coat hungers in the wardrobe and the dryer didn’t dry the cloths after putting ten dollars in the machine

No breakfast. Fridge kept me awake plus had to ask for a knife & microwave bowl, which were given at asking. Otherwise very good.

Separate kitchen with bowls etc.

Very safe especially to guest with children

Nothing

Relaxed atmosphere, quiet. Close to town.
