Very comfortable, friendly and helpful service. Liked the location close to everything, but not right in the center of town. more

We were referred to this motel as the one we were going to use was full. How lucky we were! Colin and Jude could not have been more accommodating. We got a really good rate and were also upgraded to an apartment rather than the studio we were paying for. The rooms are comfortable and spotlessly clean. In the kitchen... more

Luxury furnishings, immaculately clean rooms, much quieter location than city centre. New owner Colin, has raised the standards even higher. He also provides free shuttle service to airport or city centre (which is only 5 minutes walk) and delivered our luggage to the city centre bus depot. He has also added breakfast options in your room. We stayed here last... more

Thanks very much for the kind review. It was a pleasure to host you. Early days for this and we still have a few things to work on to improve the Tuscana experience. We must line up facilities, service and price in order to offer the very best in value to our valued guests from overseas. Hopefully we have the...

This is a good basic hotel. The bathroom was luxurious with its spa tub but the rest was basic. The hosts were accomodating. They let us use their computer to check our email as my "worldwide" blackberry from Canada did not work in NZ. The location is good. It is convenient to go running in the botanic gardens but I... more

Thanks for taking time to review. We are certainly award winning however we didn't pick up a hidden gem award nor do we have a pool (or maybe that comment referred to the lack of one). Good constructive points however and we always have something to work on to achieve improvement. Whilst we are new owners I can take on...

A group of 18 teachers stayed at the Tuscana Motor Lodge recently while we attended a conference in Christchurch. We were impressed with the very friendly and supportive managers who went out of their way to ensure that our stay was successful. Everyone found the units clean, well appointed and comfortable. The location was perfect for us, a short walk... more

Nice accomodation close to City, Rooms tastefully decorated and clean. Our wireless internet connection wasn't "FREE" as stated on the main website, so it would pay to check that out when booking. more

Tuscana is near the centre of Christchurch, perhaps a 15 minute stroll from the main downtown area. While being clean & comfortable, it doesn't have much else going for it. more

Thanks for the review. You have left us up in the air a bit as to where the experience fell short of your expectations. The NZ rating system sees us much better than basic so if there were specifics, we may be able to address them if we knew them. Cheers. Colin

We had booked this on seeing the reviews on Trip Advisor. We were not disappointed at all. We were made to feel welcome the moment we arrived to the moment we left. The lodge was kept extensively clean, and the rooms were well equipped and comfortable. The little extras made it that little bit more special; attention to detail is... more

Tuscana was well positioned for visiting family in the area and it is only a 20 minute walk into the city centre, plus also close to other shopping areas and some excellent restaurants. It is also only a 10 minute drive to the airport. Our unit was situated at the back of the motel and had a separate bedroom with... more
