Commodore Motor Lodge  

Tucked into Ashburton’s Netherby neighborhood, a leafy, ground-floor motor lodge just a quick hop to Ashburton Domain and the Historic Art Gallery and Museum. Pet-friendly and family-friendly, it’s about an hour from Christchurch Airport and an hour from the Mt Hutt ski field.

A 14-unit, ground-floor motel with a relaxed garden setting. Rooms feel roomy and practical — fully equipped kitchens or kitchenettes, refrigerators and microwaves, 43-inch Smart TVs, private showers, daily housekeeping and handy extras like kettles, coffee/tea makers, irons and hairdryers.

Chill in the garden, fire up the picnic and barbecue area, or let kids loose on the playground. Free high-speed Wi‑Fi keeps you connected. Onsite parking is ample and free.

Fast Wi‑Fi and practical services like express check-in/out, luggage storage and laundry make short stays and work stops easy.

Continental breakfasts are offered daily for a fee, and many units include fully equipped kitchens for self-catering. The picnic and BBQ area is perfect for casual, local-ingredient meals.
