Upgraded to junior suite - very thankful! Big bathroom, narrow but more than adequate living/kitchen/dining room, very large bedroom. Super clean. Large shower which did *not* tend to splash into the rest of the bathroom. Nice large porcelain tiling in bathroom, single sheet of tempered glass for backsplash in kitchen which is great cuz to my mind the less grout the better...nice mini bar and great tea selection. The building being built as post office in ~1937 is built like a concrete tank. Very quiet. Quiet area a quick few blocks from the Octogon and surrounds.
Located in Dunedin, a 12-minute walk from Taieri Gorge Railway, Ebb-Dunedin provides accommodations with a fitness center, private parking, a garden and a terrace.

I visited the Farmers Market which was fun. I also had a takeaway meal of blue cod, oysters and homemade chips from Best Cafe. The meal was amazing.
I visited a part of the Botanic gardens which was lovely and watched a women’s rugby game at Opoho, just above the Gardens. We were treated to beautiful weather and a large flocks of wood pigeons!

It was very cold, but luckily it didn't rain and where we've stayed our heatpump was amazing. Dunedin is beautiful with very old beautiful buildings and lots of noisy students walking in the main streets until very late talking very loud and kicking rubbish bins.

Friendly people. Beautiful buildings and good shopping with helpful people. All round a lovely city, just don't stay at On Top backpackers and get ripped off. Not what I paid for/ promised by Booking.Com.
Lovely boutique hotel in the perfect location of Dunedin! First, the proprietors are a lovely husband and wife who personally work at the property (including the front desk, personally maintaining the grounds, etc.). The pride they have in their hotel is obvious. Everything was always perfect, inside the hotel as well as the grounds. The room was special as well. The furnishings were very nice, the bathroom was large and well stocked, the kitchenette was well stocked and had everything we needed for our stay.
Fantastic location, very central in Dunedin and the view of the waterfront was a perk. It was next door to Moiety, where we really wanted to book dinner for a night, Unfortunately we were staying over new years so the restaurant was closed. Hotel was walking distance to downtown and rhe university, fireworks, and most restaurants and about 15min driving away from the castle. We were able to drive about 45min to the royal albatross center as well, which was very scenic.
The hotel was well situated - convenient to walk into central Dunedin, and close to restaurants. The owners of the hotel were very friendly and helpful - provided lots of advice about places to visit and where to eat.
We were also able to use the washing machine and dryer which was very handy.
Our bed was comfortable and the room well appointed.
Definitely recommend as a place to stay in Dunedin.
Excellent hotel and superb customer service; I had requested an early check-in and the front desk staff checked me in immediately when I reached the hotel at 11am!! I also booked the airport shuttle through them and had gone out in the morning; the staff called me 15 minutes prior to my pick up time to ensure that I didn't miss it and was at the hotel on time. Definitely a must stay hotel in Dunedin.
The rooms were spacious and comfortable.
Also in the southern side of the city which makes it an easy drive to the airport.
the layout was very nice, we had a 2 bedroom unit and the floor plan made it easy to move around in the apartment without getting in the way of other people. For example, the bathroom and kitchen were not on top of each other which you often see in motels.
It’s always very clean and the reason we always book with Scenic is due to the beds. They are so comfortable, like sleeping on a cloud! The staff are always so helpful and polite and the location is right in town so you don’t need to worry about taxis etc. Whenever we come to Dunedin we always book this hotel.
Great communication with John before and during our stay. Great sized bathroom and washer/dryer helped sort out our 'holiday clothes', After mastering the steep hills we did enjoy a great meal at the Cable Hotel literally down the hill. Local shops a bonus. Outlook great and felt very private.
Well presented and spotlessly clean with an excellent shower. Everything you could realistically want for a short stay. Very close to the Botanical Gardens and restaurants within walking distance. Downtown Dunedin is 20 minutes walk or a short bus-ride from right outside the hotel.
Brilliant, newly renovated hotel situated in the centre of Dunedin. We had such a lovely stay and the staff were extremely welcoming and friendly that I’m sure we will stay again!
I had an enjoyable couple of days in Dunedin. The hotel was close to the places I wanted to visit and parking was a bonus. Staff were friendly and I had no complaints. Thank you.
Nothing luxury, Standard motel, but very tidy and clean. Comfortable. Kitchenet was bonus. Also they have free parking. When my family came to meet me, it was so convenience.
