I really liked my room and the hotel generally. It was beautifully designed and made me feel comfortable during my stay while in town for the women's world cup. The staff was so nice, friendly, and very helpful. The housekeeping staff did such a great job cleaning my room. The front desk staff was so patient and friendly every time and I had questions. The cafe staff was so welcoming and nice. Overall it was an amazing experience and I would love to return.

The staff were lovely. We had to stay another night here due to some personal reasons and the staff was super nice to change things around and make it that our next day booking was in the same room. The room was really nice and spacious. There is tea and coffee facilities in the room, a cafe/bar/restaurant down stairs on property. They have a gym. Parking is available for an added price. Walking distance from outside restaurants and shopping centre/ grocery stores. Activities: is about roughly an hour away from the castle and the penguin viewing site. Definitely recommend seeing the penguin, worth the trip and money.

    We were just passing through on this trip, but Dunedin is a great place to visit for an extended stay Harbour and inlet good for paddle boarding, kayaking, sailing. Any scheduled open water swims are great. Mountain biking on the peninsula and behind Logan Park and other trails is good. Good tramping and trail running, Mt Cargill, Swampy etc Weekly Park runs. Marathon one of my NZ favourites, a must do. Summer events regularly held by local triathlon club. I am in my 70s and enjoy Dunedin, younger folks would enjoy it even more

    A city with scenic landscapes and harbour views seen from everywhere. Charming villas hug hillside suburbs with many quaint communities to discover. Easy walking around the city centre or alternatively drive around the coastal roads and suburbs to visit surf beaches pounding one side of the peninsula in contrast to the calm blue of the Otago harbour. Lots to see for bird & wildlife enthusiasts, eclectic shopping and architectural delights including Larnach castle’s interesting historical story.

    Love the experiences at Otago peninsula, blue penguins tour and St Claire beach. The city I didnt see much to be honest. And unfortunately I had a bad experience booking with Trip advisor/ Viator for the Castle and Gardens booking, I booked through the app and the company they sold has been closed for 2 years. So I waited 40 minutes just to then be told by the Isite staff that that company has t been operating for a long time, so very disappointed.. im waiting for the refund but the experience was ruined. I can take back that time and I couldn’t book another tour bc I already expended the money and Im not sure I will hace a refund, and I had little time algo bc I only had the morning free.

    Larnach Castle stay was a highlight and also visiting the Orokonui Sanctuary. Photo of sunrise from room 22 at the lodge at the castle. Dunedin has lovely cafes but Coffee Culture Roslyn stood out as a great find. Beautiful freshly made keto bacon and egg flan. Photo of old fire door table. Lots of old buildings and great museums including a live butterfly collection. Don’t forget to get your fuel before heading out of town.

    Some great cafes near the Octagon, our favourite is The Corner Store cafe in Stuart St. Fantastic food at the cafe inside the Ebb Hotel also. Drive out past Port Chalmers and the restaurant there, the Carey's Bay Historic hotel does a fantastic lunch. Drive out to Aramoana after lunch; a desolate, haunted but beautiful place. The Esplanade cafe at St Clairs beach does incredible pizzas after a walk on the beach. Emerson's brewery is always a fave, and Balmac number 7 and Harbvourside are excellent restaurants, Balmac number 7 more upmarket, both with great food.

    It was a one night stay! The room was small but had everything you needed in it. The heater on the wall did the job of keeping us warm. Hotel is in a central location and is next door to the Casino in Dunedin. There is a restaurant a couple of doors down from hotel where we had a beautiful meal. You didn't need to book. At the end of a very long day, the receptionists were just very cheerful and helpful.

    We were about $200 less in our account when we arrived at the hotel to be able to pay in full the staff were no phased by us paying later. We are used to getting looked at sideways even when paying in full at other places so this was a very memorable moment for us and we will definitely be staying here annually for the Dunedin tattoo expos and any other trips to Dunnaz
