"Great location especially for joggers and just steps to Hagley Park. Walking distance to Christchurch Hospital and to riverside restaurants. Carparking good too. Friendly and helpful staff. Will definitely stay again."

"Great choice if looking for a budget option near the airport. Amenities were quite nice, bathroom was clean, and staff was very helpful. Not a ton of space, but very doable for a night or two."

Friendly staff and very helpful. Rooms were clean and spacious, good value for cost of room.
I would recommend this property for its proximity to shops and easy walking.

Great value for money slightly older style motel. I like staying at places like this, feels like home and cheaper than newer or top end places. We were able to check in early which was great news to drop stuff off and ready ourselves for a day at the beer fest.

We were so pleasantly surprised by our stay at The Black Horse!! Looks way nicer than the pictures and has such a lovely character. The rooms have all been recently renovated and we even got a sunny window which was nice to read your book in. Also there is a kitchen! So you can totally cook your own meals just like in a hostel. Such value for money!! Would so stay here again, thank you MJ for hosting us :)
