Gin gives you a “welcome home” greeting so sincerely and warmly that it actually feels real. The place is lovely, fun, beautiful, cozy, and a great location for walking to town or the lovely shops nearby. Wonderful value and great way to experience NZ hospitality.

Great place, friendly hosts

My host Jen and her husband were so helpful and friendly. They really made my stay enjoyable. My continental breakfast was amazing and bought my room the night before.

Very clean! Has in room jacuzzi!!! Very friendly couple! A beautiful property! Convenient location! A lot of tea and coffee in the room!

The staff was very welcoming, and the room was just lovely.

We enjoyed our stay very much. Owners were very gracious and the place was well appointed.

Our room was on a busy street with lots of traffic noise.

Wayne was extremely helpful as we had a very late arrival (actually 2 am the next morning) and he accommodated us with a key that we could easily find and use to access our suite. Then the next morning he made us a delicious Cappiccino😁

Very helpful manager.

The photograph on the website make it appear that you will stay in the stately main building. Instead we stayed in what is best described as a drab, mid century motel unit with kitchenette next to a main road.

The hosts and staff went above and beyond to fulfill our needs. The room was extremely clean, fresh and welcoming. The bed was the most comfortable we have ever slept in any hotel we have stayed in across Africa and Europe. An unforgettable stay for 11 nights.

Such friendly staff and great studio Near cafes and shops Def recommend

excellent ,comfortable ,safe , and well looked after by managers

We only had one night but we were well looked after and had an excellent night's sleep in a beautiful studio.

Excellent option when staying in Christchurch. Very friendly hosts and clean and well appointed rooms. They even have bikes available should you wish to ride around the city.

This was a relaxing experience. The owners were friendly and knowledgeable of the area. The room was clean and comfortable! No complaints here! We will be back and highly recommend!

Couldn’t fault this place on anything. Wayne checked us in and was very helpful with advice on things to do and how best to get there. While Merivale is a very nice suburb with supermarkets and places to eat very close by, it is still a decent 20-30min walk into the city centre. It didn’t bother us at all as we had a car.

Fabulous place, only wished we'd had more time there. Arrived llater than planned, but had a great welcome from Karen who made us feel so welcome. Room so well equipped and very high standard, could have done with a week there! Seemed to be well placed for town centre and local amenities. Would definatey recommend and would use again at an instant. Wayne also super friendly.

Great location. Close to shops, restaurants and public transport. Wayne is a great host and I was treated as an important guest. Would highly recommend.

Friendly and helpful reception. Beautiful, historic building with updated interior.

Friendly, helpful staff, clean rooms in a beautiful Manor House. Easy distance from Merivale and city centre.

Friendly staff, spacious, clean, good location, beautiful building.

Great place - sorry not to stay longer. Lovely friendly owners who really helped us out when we needed advice and assistance on a public holiday when our child was ill. Keep up the good work.

Neat and tidy small room. Although a stovetop was available we were told that you could not cook in the room as it created smells. When we complained we were provided with a frypan but asked to leave the windows and door open if we used it. The room had a view of the main road and it was very noisy. The hosts were friendly.
