Rolleston Highway Motel

What guests think

At Rolleston Highway Motel, guests consistently praise clean, modern and spacious rooms, friendly and helpful staff, ample parking, and a convenient location near State Highway 1 with easy access to shops, eateries, and Christchurch or the airport.

While many report effective noise insulation, some experienced traffic or door noise, and several guests found the beds firmer than they prefer. Housekeeping is usually reliable, though there were occasional lapses like a missed service or inconsistent cleaning, and a few felt the limited check-in hours and reminders at 10am were strict. Overall, expect a clean, convenient stopover with good value and practical comforts near the motorway.

Poor job done cleaning the suite. There was long blonde hairs all over the carpet which posed a health risk to my son if he were to ingest these as there was a lot. Paying a lot of money for a full suite and the freezer was being used by personal staff without any warning.

Room is always excellent – parking is easy, fast food, dairy – servo next-door, Rolleston township 800m and 20 minutes off peak to chc via motorways

Previous stayed several times in the entrance ground floor blocks, this was the first time in ground floor block parallel to the highway, but it made no difference, despite the busy highway over the fence, the room was jyst as quiet as the others. . Remains my favourite chc hotel, close on the motorway but far enough to be peaceful.

Great welcoming staff, we happy with environment and tidy. Only issue we did have is the room doors close shut it echos and make noise through the night and during the day when people coming in and out of their rooms. Spent the night being woken up. Maybe look into redoing the door frame?

We stayed in the 3 bedroom - King bed, queen bed and 2 singles. It has a full kitchen and lounge and was very clean throughout and very comfortable. the young lady that we met was friendly and had a great sense of humour. Great place to stay and was so convenient for us as was only a five minute walk to my son's house. It is on the main road so traffic gets a bit noisy in the morning but was double glazed so was ok.

Great place,very central to eateries and supermarket, road wasn't too noisy being next to motel. Could do with replacing the black out curtains,getting old and towels as they weren't overly soft and fluffy. We were disappointed with the king size bed being two singles together,there was an uncomfortable ridge in the middle.Lovely staff and clean. Will definitely go back again.Cheers
