Play Pokies at The Racecourse Hotel & Motor Lodge in Christchurch

This hotel and motel is pumping with life. Great friendly service from the get go. My drivers were feed,watered and sent on their way with a great lunch.
A service not seen in chch for many years.
There were so many people dining or staying that we had trouble parking our truck.
A must place to go

We went for lunch with a small group of Seniors.
Firstly the place is so wonderfully bright and clean, and the staff to a person are warm and engaging. We asked for the "Gold Star Lunch Menu" i.e. A special one for Kiwi Gold Card ("over sixty-fives").
Lovely selection, excellent price , no "skimping" I.e. Good portion size and beautifully cooked and presented.
Desserts spot-on.
Finally it was nice to feel welcome, well looked after and leaving wonderfully replete.
Thanks to the whole team - front of house and kitchen.
Five star.

awesome place, plenty of parking and awesome staff, friendly locals, and good food. The room I stayed in was very nice also lot's of room for trucks. Will definitely be coming back

Convenient to city and Airport. Rooms good size, quiet, but a bit tired. Linen clean and fresh. The shower curtain over the bath was just starting to look a little scummy. Having restaurant on site also saves decision's, meals well priced, bacon and mushrooms well prepared, flavoursome and perfect sized portion.

Room had not been vaccumed. Shower controls and rose very dirty. Shower floor had talc on it which we do not use. No teatowel, dish wash or kitchen cloth to wash dishes as stayed 2 nights. Meal in restaurant was a shocker. Chicken dry and overcooked. Seafood basket presented in a stainless steel bowl with a sheet of baking paper lining it. Fish definitely not fresh and the rest tasteless and over cooked. Have stayed in the past but service has slipped dramatically. Would not stay again
