Classic comfort
We stayed at one of the classic rooms which is located on the ground floor. The managers try very hard to make the stay pleasant. Rooms are clean and comfortable and serviced daily. Location is excellent, very close to all places of interest with a walking distance. The verandah is great to sit outside on a sunny day. On the negative, there is no mini fridge or coffee making facility, only available thru the breakfast room.Water took a very long time to heat up. There is limited parking available, and we had to park two blocks away for a free space. Included breakfast had great variety of condiments, but no hot food served, eg eggs. Overall it was a pleasant stay, but with the amount of money there are more comfortable modern hotels around.

We enjoyed all of it. The location, the owners, the room, breakfast with guests.Exceptionally wonderful hosts. The old university across the street is being restored into a art museum and has wonderful shops and interesting features. The botanical garden was right there as well. And the jump off and jump on trolley ran right in front of the Classic Villa. Guests were amazing and full of energy and accommodating. We felt right at home even went out in the evening to the courtyard and shared a bottle of wine.

Enjoyed a lovely stay at the Classic Villa. Located in central Christchurch, many points of interest within 10 minutes walk. Property isn't classified as such but to me seems like bed & breakfast style accommodation. Very quiet and feels like being in someone's home.

This is a beautiful property located across the street from the Botanical Garden and green space. We stayed in the suite which I would recommend. It is so so nice! The host and hostess were available on the premise for what ever we needed. There are several areas in the villa for relaxation. It is quite for sleeping and safe for walking at night within a few blocks of shopping and eating.
