Golden Star Motel is a motel at 128 Clarence Street in Riccarton, Christchurch, with 16 rooms. The website describes it as Riccarton's newest motel, completed in 2017, with an indoor and outdoor style designed by a city architecture firm.
Each room has air conditioning, a 42-inch LED television with more than 50 Sky channels, free Wi-Fi, and Hansgrohe shower fittings. The motel is within walking distance of Westfield Riccarton and Tower Junction, and buses stop outside. The city's train station and AMI Stadium are a short walk away, Hagley Park is 1.5 kilometres off, and Christchurch Airport is a short drive or taxi ride. The website says it suits business trips, group stays and family visits. Our view is that it is a practical base in Riccarton for a visit to Christchurch.
