This motel is well positioned close to the train station and the owner offers a shuttle service to or from the Coastal Pacific or Tranzalpine train trips which we took advantage of.

We booked through Expedia and paid $150.08 which was collected by Expedia and charged to our credit card at time of booking (25.4.21). We stayed one night on 22.5.21 and $127.57 was deducted from our credit card by Arena Motel on 22.5.21. We have paid twice for one night's accommodation and request a refund. Please advise when we can expect this and whether Expedia or the motel are responsible.

The Arena Motel is very close to the inner Christchurch city and railway station if your going on the Transrail. The staff are very welcoming and made our stay enjoyable. The rooms are clean, tidy and have very comfortable beds. We loved Christchurch and will be back.
