This was such a wonderful stay! As soon as we walked in, I felt at home. I am so happy we got to stay here to enjoy the hospitality. Wonderful location as the botanical gardens are just a block away, a tram stop across the street, arts center about two blocks away, and plenty of good food options.

Brilliant place to stay with hosts Jackie & Steve providing a base to literally be right in the centre of Christchurch… the tram stops right out side The Classic Vilas. Large rooms and a well equipped bathroom. Dining for the large continental breakfast was in very pleasant surroundings and proper tea and coffee available all day and night. Crucially the bonus is that a bottle of port is out in the evening for when you come in. Extremely pleased we chose this place and would recommend a couple of day s stay

Having travelled widely over the years this must rate as one of our favourite hotels. It was well located and in excellent condition, welcoming and comfortable. More of a luxury B&B than a standard hotel; it is the hosts (Steve and Jackie) that make the The Classic Villa such a special place. Friendly, helpful and effective they make the place feel like so much more than a hotel, more a home from home. But one where someone else does all of the hard work! Thank you both for providing a wonderful start to our holiday in New Zealand.

We loved the area as it was so lovely and very quiet-we could also walk to town or catch the tram. The hotel was lovely and we had a very enjoyable breakfast each morning. The hosts made you feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble.
