    Historical city, beautiful old buildings, Railway Station and trains awesome. Museum’s great. Easy to get around. Otago Peninsula is beautiful and the wildlife is amazing. Easy drive down the scenic route along the coast to the Catlins. Nugget point lighthouse is worth visiting. Just have to allow time to travel from the airport into and out of the city if flying in. It’s about a 20 minute drive.

    Like any university city there is a vibrancy around the town when the students are about. The warehouse district is a particularly great place to stay and appreciate all the wonderful old buildings that have been refurbished and repurposed for a mixture of residential and commercial purposes. As a result there are many great eating options to choose from as well as plenty of places to shop. It was great to see bakers and butchers in the inner city a short sign that life is returning to the centre of Dunedin I would highly recommended Dunedin as a great place to spend a week or so there are plenty of natural attractions within a short distance of the city along with attractions, such as Larnach Castle and Olveston. Dunedin art gallery also has some fantastic art on display as well as revolving exhibitions. We stayed close to the centre of Dunedin and a lovely refurbished warehouse and found that everything we required for eating was within walking distance.

    I love Dunedin.

    I love Dunedin. Despite the freezing weather, it has a gothic and quirky charm which I love. It has the best architecture of any NZ city and is compact enough that it doesn't take long to get anywhere. There is plenty to do, especially if you're lucky enough to be there in good or passable weather. The art gallery and museums are worth a visit in poor weather.

    Dunedin is a beautiful city with some much history to it.

    Dunedin is a beautiful city with some much history to it. Its nostalgic feel that flows through the buildings as you stroll through the streets. SO many hidden spots to enjoy retail therapy or a cuppa. Local Retail stores are just the cutest. We thoroughly loved how close everything was from University to the Polytechnic.

    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

    The Hotel is located just up from the Dunedin town hall above the Octagon. It is close to a number of restaurants and cafes. There is car parking but call ahead to make sure that you can find parking. This is an older hotel but room was clean and tidy. Breakfast was included - continental and cooked options. It is uphill if you are walking from Princes Street so if walking is difficult you just need to take your time

    I like the location because it was nice and central in Dunedin City. I also like the "old" style historical "vibe" of the Hotel. Although could do with some more work on bringing up to date, but in keeping with the historical ambiance. They would do well if they get this right.

    We rent a 2 bedroom apartment at this delightful hotel every year as we visit our daughter at Otago Uni. We travel from Auckland. Location is fantastic, close to Octagon, it's private and charming. Boutique feel, easy to deal with. Spotless, comfortable and quiet.

    The apartment was fantastic, located near the centre of Dunedin. Very comfortable and clean with excellent kitchen. Hosts provided milk, bread, fruit etc. After some of the places we had stayed on our trip it was luxury.
