"We felt really comfortable here because the owner/managers were helpful, welcoming, lovely people. The hotel looks old and stylish and it is refurbished to a high standard. We chose a room with a jacuzzi bath which was great. It’s situated near the main road but we didn’t find it loud inside our room. Facilities for food prep were useful and we made our own breakfast and light lunch. There are great cafes and restaurants very nearby too, great quality and budget prices. There is a good shopping...

hotel. We were welcomed with chocolates and a gift bear, “George.” The lobby was very welcoming with multiple seating areas. There were complimentary apples in baskets on the different floors. There is a reading library and an outdoor garden, as well. Our room was very well appointed and comfortable. We could not hear our neighbors.
The restaurant was excellent. The food was well prepared. We would gladly eat there...

"Here’s the deal. I spend over 200+ nights in hotels a year. Marriotts are my go to. This hotel was one of the finest places I’ve ever stayed in. I would serious choose this over a Four Seasons. Beyond clean, plenty of room, remodeled. Didn’t mention the heated bathroom floor? Staff from checkin to the bar were amazing. "

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...

"I stayed a couple of nights in a single room with a shared bathroom. It was simple, but clean and comfortable, and it had everything I needed for a short stay. I also liked that the shared bathrooms were single occupancy instead of having to share a bathroom with several other people using different stalls, as I've seen at other hostels. The location was convenient, and it was easily walkable to everything I needed."

"Friendly, courteous staff. Loved the free stuff. 15 min walk from airport so no need for ride or bus. Comfortable bed. Nice hangout area with ample space and games. Front desk lent me a charger. I would definitely stay again or another Lylo location. Highly recommend for the budget conscious. "

B&B.The home is a lovingly restored turn of the century masterpiece, the gardens further the ambience of English gentility and the hosts could not be more engaging and accommodating. The impeccable decorating, the elegant breakfast… I could go on. Suffice it to say that we would return to Christchurch if for no other reason, to revisit this wonderful place. "
