You won’t find a better location if you like the beach. The hotel is just across the road from a beautiful beach and it’s lovely to watch the sunrise/set it just beach life. The staff are so nice and helpful and rooms have good amenities. Can’t fault this hotel. A short drive from Dunedin CBD

Fantastic boutique hotel right on the beach. Clean and comfortable rooms with friendly helpful staff in a prime location. If you can afford it pay the extra for an ocean view room.

First the service was atrocious, called the reception at 21:05 for milk (as none was provided) and was told in a very rude manner that I had go the after hours line and I would have to wait for reception to open at 07:00, no issues, I asked that it be delivered first thing in the morning as we needed to check out at 07:30 and was told it would be so. Called reception at 07:15 and got a very grumpy after hours line again, this time the tone belonged to someone who was clearly not happy. I was asked why I dialed that number and replied I had just dialed reception, call was just hung up without any further explanation. Milk never came and when we left at 07:30 reception was empty. The room and bathroom were dirty, bedding old and torn. Amenities provided for one person though two were booked. Room needs attention, lots of rust which is understandable being oceanside but it shouldn't be allowed to get to the level that it was, messed with the beautiful aesthetic created by the surroundings. Only good thing about this place is the view.

The staff at this hotel were excellent. When we checked in quite late the checkin staff were lovely and helpful. We booked for a second night however our room type was not available so were offered an 1140am checkout as the second nights room would not be ready until later in the day. We received a phone ca next morning saying we could stay in our room for another Night and moving was not required. Touched like this make a stay so very enjoyable and hassle free. Check out staff excellent also. Highly recommend this hour if staying in Dunedin.

Underground parking was particularly useful as I had two cycles on a rack on the car. I would not have liked to park on the road where theft or damage to the cycles was possible.
