Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Canterbury

Wake up to stunning views of the Kaikoura Mountains and the sea at Panorama Motel. Our units are all ensuite and smoke-free. Every unit opens out onto either a patio area with outdoor seating or onto its own private balcony, to allow our guests to enjoy the panoramic views.

Parking is off-street, with enough space to park your boat or trailer. We are pet friendly, and love to welcome the whole family. We had a huge delay and arrived late. Annie at the reception left for us the unit open and prepared, and explained by mail very clearly how to find it, where to park etc. Parking was just in front of the door. The room had big windows with great views of the sea, and there was a sitting area outside, although it was too cold and windy to use it.

Free Wi-Fi access is available at Tuscana Motor Lodge, offering spacious studios and apartments with DVD player and LCD satellite TV. Christchurch city centre is only 10 minutes’ walk away.

Guests can use the BBQ facilities or dine at the many restaurants and cafés located within a 20-minute walk. Facilities include a tour desk and guest laundry. Pets are allowed by prior arrangement. Grant, our host was awesome. Welcoming and gave us some great advice on restaurants in the area and tips for our onward journey to Queenstown which made our drive even more fun.

In a prime location in the centre of Christchurch, Hotel Montreal offers free WiFi, a restaurant and free private parking for guests who drive. This 5-star hotel offers room service and a 24-hour front desk. Certain units at the property feature a balcony with a city view. Originally scheduled to stay for a couple of nights, my wife and I ended up with a serious case of the flu on arrival. We managed to extend our stay by an extra 3 days. This was a lifesaver for us and our dogs. The staff here are exceedingly kind and helpful, and I mean all of them. We have stayed at lots of places, at both ends of the spectrum but the Montreal is a whole other level of great. Beds,rooms,bathroom,balcony and basically everything else is top notch,100% spot on.
