Simply the best place to stay in Christchurch

Totally enjoyed our stay at Eco Villa. Room and service was faultless. The building is simply stunning and has been recently renovated and decorated to an exceptionally high standard. The owners were very friendly, helpful and genuinely care about providing a great service. It's just the best pace to stay to explore Christchurch - circa 10 min walk into the centre or less to some really great coffee shops. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Eco Villa - the beds and bedding were as good quality as we have at home and the decoration was just lovely and to our taste. Perfect bathroom / shower. It all made for a very relaxing stay and would love to return one day. No hesitation 5 star rating from a very picky travelling couple :-)

This is a beautiful house and a nice part of Christchurch. Location was convenient to downtown, and easy walk, and to the airport. The owners were incredibly helpful. The beautiful kitchen was available for cooking, and the garden for picking vegetables. We would stay there again, and wish we’d had more time.

Great eco Hotel

This is a beautiful, eco focused hotel with loads of nice little extras, great rooms and a really nice garden space. The bathroom was shared between us and one other room which was not a problem at all.

Stay

I really liked everything about the place except that the bathroom was not ensuite and required traipsing across the hallway outside the kitchen. Owners and staff were great, room was nice, beds comfortable and table tennis table was a godsend because there were no tvs in the room or lounge etc - which would be a welcome addition because staying in hotels can be very boring and you dont always want to feel you have to go out (and spend yet more money on entertainment)!

Cosy house

Owner is warm and helpful. The house is beautiful and eco oriented. Garden is interesting and most of the plants are edible. Will be better if there is elevator to the upper floor. Room is a bit dim. No TV in the room but is not very important.
