Croydon Lodge

Great stay quiet and well appointed. Staff are super friendly. Just what we needed.

Staff were lovely. Our room was very comfy and clean, we had the breakfast both mornings and it was super yummy. Totally recommend if your staying in gore. Definitely one of the nicer accommodations we’ve stayed at. Only complaint was the shower wasn’t staying on properly. The water knob kept falling down. We managed to keep it on and shower so it wasn’t too much of an issue but it may need to be tightened. I meant to tell staff as we were leaving but it slipped my mind.

The staff here really saved our trip! We had rented a car in Christchurch for our South Island portion of our trip and unfortunately had a screw wedge into our tire. Over the night we stayed, the tire became flat. We woke up to find this out the next morning, a Sunday, when we were planning to head out of town to our next destination. The manager went out of their way to allow us to check out later AND even posted to the local Facebook group to find a mechanic to help us when all shops were closed. Because of this amazing customer service, we were able to get connected to an on call technician and were on our way only an hour or so after we scheduled. The room was very clean, as well, and had a fantastic shower!
