19/2/10 "We stayed at your motel lodge December 30th 2009. We did enjoyed ourselves with you. Your motor lodge was exquisite, along with your beautiful, gorgeous garden! We arrived late in the day and still needed to do laundry and eat dinner. You suggested a lovely restaurant down the road which we thoroughly enjoyed! You also kindly volunteered to do our laundry for which we were so very grateful! - Fondly Marilyn, Barry & Craig - New Mexico.
"We enjoyed our stay at Milano and will definitely return should we have more business in Christchurch, although coming from the tropics our next visit will be in summer. Thank you for your wonderful service" - Di and Peter
"Thank you very much for having us and looking after us the way you did. We very much appreciated this. We had a safe journey home and are now back to everyday life again. We used to go to Christchurch more often and Milano was always our "home" away from home. Although circumstances have changed, we will certainly call upon you when we visit next time. Thanks again for your email and your friendly hospitality" - Laurine and Lance Mitchell
"We had a wonderful trip through NZ. Having stayed at 10 different Hotels/Motels in NZ we can say that the 2 best accommodations were the Milano Motor Lodge and the Ventura (Rotorua). We will most certainly be staying with you on our next trip in July. We plan to spend several days in Christchurch skiing before heading down to Queenstown" - Dallas and Angelique Holder, Duitsland
"We had a fabulous holiday in NZ! We particularly enjoyed staying at Milano as you were so friendly and helpful and the standard of accommodation was superb. We hope to see you again one day" - Jill Sherwin
"Thank you for your kind email Jocelyn, I always enjoy staying with you guys and although I don't get down your way as often as I'd like, I'll always stay with you" - Ian
"We really enjoyed our time in Christchurch, we always seem to say ït's never long enough . . . We were very comfortable at the Milano, thanks for looking after us" - Nick, Esther and Billy, Schnappa Rock Restaurant, Tutukaka Marina.
"We chose your motel driving down the street because of the presentation. We enjoyed the facilities, very well layed out (perfect). Couldn't say any more" - Ian, Guernsey.
"We enjoyed our stay at your place and we will never hesitate to recommend to others whom we know. Overall we enjoyed New Zealand South Island and we will be back. Thank you" Ravi
"Beautifully equiped unit. Absolute luxury. Very tastefully decorated and "dressed". Service and unit the best in NZ for us. We have stayed in 15 motels this trip. This is by far the best and deserving of its 4 star plus. - UK
"Enjoyed overall motel cleanliness, unit and grounds. Owners were friendly and welcoming giving assistance with information and directions. Enjoyed getting our washing done, dried and folded. Will be recommending this motel complex to others coming to Christchurch. Would love to take the bed home with us." John and Nancy, Brisbane, Australia.
"Had a lovely stay, will be back again and recommending colleagues to stay here too. Jocelyn and Murray your hospitality is great, the units are spotlessly clean and the garden is beautiful. Don't change a thing - you've got it perfect. - Greg, Canada.
"Our three night stay at the Milano was a pleasure and an excellent introduction to NZ hospitality. The suite was spotlessly clean, serviced every day and the relief managers, Tina and Greg could not have been more helpful and made us feel welcome at all times - a great start to a holiday" - Steven - Lynn, Andover, UK
"Milano was excellent value for money. Stylish, spacious, comfortable and quiet, with a welcome spa bath in the room, this was a great place to start our holiday. Both town centre and the nearby suburb of Merivale are within easy reach for dining or shops. Staff were extremely helpful. The overall standard was excellent - really comfortable and quiet". - Padders, UK
