Lorenzo is well placed to a range of facilities including restaurants and shopping. It is a busy neighbourhood, well located to the CBD and the rooms are quiet given its location to a busy road

Very nice staff, friendly and helpful. The only negative - the room and bathroom were very cold when we arrived, all heating was off, incl heated towel rail. The bathroom was very clean but had an unusual smell - possibly from the spa bath. Overall a good stay. Thank you.

Used to stay here when i worked for Barkers of Geraldine. Nice place and convenient. My husband wasn't well and called an ambulance - not too far to the hospital. Cafes near by. Great location.

This property is in an ideal location within walking distance (About 20 minutes)of the CBD. It didn't have an oven, but it was well equipped otherwise and is the first motel we have ever stayed at with 3 TV's with Sky! The living area is very comfortable with a lovely patio with a fence with camelias growing against it. It also has a nice spa bath. The only minus was that the tap in the bathroom basin was very stiff and the other taps were very loose! The fridge had too many cans and bottles which had to be taken out to fit our own food. Over all though, a great place to stay.

Parking is very difficult to get near Christchurch Public Hospital. The motel carparking was free and only 20 minutes from the hospital through the very lovely Hagley Park. The motel owner allowed me to check in early and park my car. This was such a relief to me because I was visiting a sick relative and was under time pressure for a scheduled meeting.

We were visiting our son and Lorenzo Lodge was a perfect location. Easy parking and comfy bed. Riccarton was a good area. Highly recommend The Park Ranger for breakfast just down the road.
