Cranford Oak Motel takes its name from a magnificent 100-year-old protected oak tree at the gateway to the property — a local landmark and a rare find in the heart of Christchurch. We offer warm, spacious accommodations just minutes from the city center, with peaceful surroundings that belie our prime location. Studios and apartments are laid out across a quiet, sheltered property with free off-street parking, free EV charging, free high-speed WiFi, private bathrooms, and full kitchen facilities. Whether you're here for business or leisure, you'll find everything you need for a comfortable, self-contained stay. For stadium events, a bus stop sits directly outside our front gate with easy access into central Christchurch. From the Central Bus Station it's a short 1640 ft walk to the stadium — making event days simple and stress-free. Christchurch Airport is 13 minutes by car, Burwood Hospital 8 minutes, and Northland Mall 6 minutes.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.8 for a two-person trip.
