The staff was awesome. Above the local bar was great. Just walk down for a beer and close enough to walk to Lincoln University if you want. These are basic but comfortable rooms. Nothing special except price is excellent

The Darfield hotel is pleasant and well located in central Canterbury between Christchurch and Arthur's Pass. There are scenic places to visit in the area including the great walkway at the Rakaia Gorge, for example. The hotel staff are always pleasant and helpful. The Pub and restaurant downstairs are very good. There is plenty of parking at and around the hotel.

Beautiful place, quaint and quirky, with cosy restaurant complete with fireplace and bar. Lester the host was extremely welcoming, made us a great meal and offered suggestions of local walks. Kindly upgraded us to a room with private bathroom as that was available at no extra cost. Loved the massage chair, great place to stay after avalanche peak walk (15 mins drive further up Arthur's pass away from Christchurch but nice to drive that extra portion of road). Cheers Lester!

The room was the same as the pictures and felt cosy. The host was friendly and welcomed us warmly. What I like the most is the bathroom, which comes with a bathtub. The kitchen is small, but it has everything we need.

This is the type of property which usually gets high marks. It is a farm, located in an isolated area, very quiet and serene. There are several buildings and apartments available for rent. Although we didn't personally meet the host, everything went smooth and we felt great. They offer a fine dining restaurant, but it was closed when we arrived.

Luxurious and welcoming. The restaurant at Terrace Downs was exceptional. Highly recommend the Mt Cook Salmon main. Extensive wine selection and great service. Would love to have stayed longer as there is so many exciting activities to choose from.

Arthur’s Pass offers absolutely beautiful scenery,...

Arthur’s Pass offers absolutely beautiful scenery, especially along the drive—it’s one of those places where you’ll want to stop often just to take it all in. It’s definitely worth getting out of the car and exploring, with plenty of walking trails that showcase the stunning alpine landscape. A must-see stop is Castle Hill Rocks, which is truly unique and well worth the visit. The rock formations are incredible and make for a memorable experience. The Cave Stream walk is another highlight—an adventurous and fun experience for those prepared to get a little wet. There are also great Arthur’s Pass walking tracks that cater to different fitness levels, making it easy for everyone to enjoy the area. Highly recommend allowing extra time to explore this region properly.

Springfield is only an hour from Christchurch yet so close to great scenery for drives and many sporting activities including Mt Hutt Ski Fields plus others. Arthur's Pass is a fabulous drive, Rakaia Gorge is beautiful, the drive to Coleridge Power Station, at the back of Mt Hutt is very scenic. The town of Methven is not far away. And there is so much more to see. Springfield is a fabulous base for so much to do and see!

Great location for any cricket parents, supporting their kids playing down the road at the university (and presumably for parents visiting uni students!). The New World supermarket is large and well stocked, with friendly staff. A great range of takeaways, as well as the Flaming Rabbit, the Lab and the Famous Grouse for fantastic pub food, beer and cocktails! The Lincoln Pharmacy staff were very helpful with a prescription being sent from Wellington. A short drive to Hornby and Riccarton, and less than half an hour into Christchurch city. We had a rental car but buses seemed frequent and well used, with multiple stops on the main road. There is major work being done on the main road right now (Jan 2026) which caused a small amount of disruption but no major delays for us.

Very relaxing area with many outdoor activities to do. Great for families to walk around Castle Hill around the rock formations or fishing along the rivers and plenty of different walks around the amazing areas. There were mountain biking trails up Porters with the team at Porter's lodge able to drive you back up to the top of the trails. Definitely keen to get back over to explore some more.
