Aprés-ski is probably more our bag than skiing and snowboarding at the City Centre Motel in Christchurch, but we are more than happy to wave our guests off as they head to one of the ski fields within a 90-minute drive of the motel. The New Zealand ski and snow season generally lasts from June to October, (weather and conditions permitting of course) and we've found that our central location makes us a good skiing accommodation for visitors to Canterbury and Mackenzie ski areas. The closest and most popular ski fields to Christchurch are Mt Hutt, Porters Heights and Mt Dobson.
