Apollo Motel

About this place

Apollo Motel is an 11-unit motel at 288 Riccarton Road, Upper Riccarton, Christchurch. It is a modern complex on the Riccarton Road corridor, one of the city's main accommodation strips west of the central city, sitting among cafes, restaurants and retail with easy arterial access.

### The offer

The motel has 11 self-contained, serviced units. Unit types cover studios, including a deluxe studio and an accessible studio, plus one-bedroom and two-bedroom units. All units have full kitchen and ensuite facilities. Free WiFi and free car parking are provided, and guest laundry facilities are available for a small charge. Continental and cooked breakfasts can be arranged on request.

The presence of a dedicated accessible studio is worth noting for organisers with accessibility requirements in their delegate group.

### Location

Apollo Motel is about a ten-minute drive from Christchurch International Airport and a similar distance from the Botanic Gardens and central city. It is close to the University of Canterbury, Westfield Riccarton and the wider Riccarton and Addington precincts.

### Meetings and events

No dedicated conference or meeting rooms are published for this property. It is an accommodation-only listing.

### Suitability

With 11 units, Apollo Motel is a small-block accommodation option rather than a venue. It suits compact delegate groups, training cohorts, visiting academics and speakers, and organisers needing self-contained units close to the University of Canterbury or the Addington event precinct. The accessible studio and the mix of one- and two-bedroom units give some flexibility for delegates with mobility needs or those travelling with family. Larger conferences would use it as one of several accommodation partners alongside a separate conference venue.
