We stayed 2 nights at this Villa. It was very well presented and in perfect condition. The room was a little and on the small side, maybe it needs less furniture but was of a high standard. We only had contact with a young girl who was pleasant enough but not warm or interested in us at all. Myself being... more

The Classic Villa is in the perfect location. Within walking distance to downtown Christchurch, punting, the trolley, the Arts Centre, and many other key Christchurch attractions. I was blown away by how wonderful the breakfast was. The service was phenomenal. Although it is a Bed and Breakfast, the owners do a flawless job of providing top notch service to the... more

The Classic Villa was our first night stay in New Zealand and provided the experience we had expected reading what other reviewers had said about it. Spotlessly clean in all respects, located within a beautiful precinct and close to the main city heart, comfortable amenities and friendly hosts willingly to go that extra distance to make one's stay enjoyable. From... more

The location of The Classic Villa is brilliant within walking distance to the city yet very quiet. The service right from the emails to the fabulous breakfasts were top of the range. This was our first stay in a boutique hotel and we will definately be back. We arrived early in the morning and when we went to drop off... more

This is a wonderful B&B in the best location in Christchurch--right across from the Arts Centre and a short walk to the lovely Botanical Gardens, center of town, shopping, restaurants, and right on the sightseeing Tram stop. The Arts Centre is a delightful group of great arts and crafts shops. On the weekend there is also a fair outside. The... more

The Classic Villa is in the ideal location, with the city centre jsut a short walk down the tram line down the street. The ensuite rooms are spacious and furnished Vogue-style, with timber floorboards and a cute fireplace-style... more

We stayed here in May for only one night , we wish we had have known how good it was, as we would have organised to stay longer. The minute we walked up the Camelia lined path to reception we were back in Italy, the staff were very friendly, the room was lovely as was the rest of the building... more

We stayed at the Classic Villa for two nights before picking up a camper van for two weeks. We arrived at the Classic Villa 6 hours late (airline strike) from a very long journey to be told by our host Peter that he had upgraded us to a larger room which was a nice welcome. I would describe the Classic... more

My girlfriend and I stayed at the Classic Villa for four days in February, and it was our first stop on a 17 day tour of New Zealand. At the time we could not have known it, but this was the BEST accommodation during our entire trip! We booked the Super Delux room (#15), and although it was a bit... more
