Pet friendly hotel in Dunedin

“Enjoyed very much our stay at this friendly hotel. The chef was amazing to prepare us vegan dinner and a hearty breakfast during our stay. The salad dressing at dinner was lovely. Definitely would love to come back again! Will see you again, Chef!”

“I stayed here for 13 nights in a Superior King Room on the 4th floor. Overall, it was a very comfortable and pleasant stay. The location is excellent — right in the heart of the city and just a short walk from The Octagon. Many major attractions, restaurants, pubs, banks, and a Woolworths are nearby. There are also around five Indian restaurants within walking distance, so it’s easy to find Indian lunch or dinner options. The room was spacious, quiet, and carpeted, with a king-size bed, two chairs, a table, and a bathroom with a bathtub. There was also a small kitchen area with a kettle, refrigerator, a few cutlery items, and complimentary tea, coffee, cookies, and milk provided daily. The bed was comfortable, and there was plenty of wardrobe space. Each room had an iron, ironing board, hair dryer, alarm clock, and a TV with around 22 channels (no Netflix or Amazon Prime). A heating pump and a separate fan were also available, which was very convenient. The room was cleaned daily, and towels were changed on alternate days. Breakfast was tasty and started at 6:30 am on weekdays and 7:00 am on weekends. I am vegetarian and found a few good vegetarian options. The breakfast spread included juices, breads, tea, coffee, hash browns, noodles, milk, curd, cornflakes, pancakes, muffins, croissants, and many more items. Breakfast was included in my booking; otherwise, it costs around $30 per person. I didn’t opt for lunch or dinner, but room service is available if needed. • Wi-Fi is free in all rooms and has good speed. • Laundry facilities are available; it costs $5 per cloth for washing and drying. • Elevator is available and works smoothly. • Car parking is available at $25 per night, but you can also find free parking nearby. • Check-in and check-out were smooth, quick, and hassle-free. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and available 24/7. They were always ready to assist with any request. A wonderful stay overall — perfect location, comfortable rooms, tasty breakfast, and great service. Highly recommended for families and anyone visiting Dunedin for a short or long stay.”

“Always great to stay here as a family - reasonably priced rooms always clean, well presented, meet all our needs as well as being close to town. While facilities are a bit dated, it ticks most of the boxes for us. The only negative for us is lack of parking - caused frustration each night we stayed. Staff ALWAYS exceptionally friendly and accomodating, great to have breakfast each day and even Foxy got looked after by the very friendly and obviously sweet cleaning staff member that attended our room today - we’ve stayed four times in the last two years and will always come back :)”

“The Harbour Rugby Team call this pub their Local”

“Early Stay Feedback – Distinction Hotel Dunedin We have just arrived in Dunedin on an early morning flight, and our first impression of Distinction Hotel has been exceptional thanks to Emma at the front desk. Emma provided outstanding service from the moment we walked in. She warmly organised secure storage for our bags, arranged for them to be delivered to our room later, and offered thoughtful recommendations on places to explore while we waited. She even phoned us personally as soon as our room was ready all done with genuine kindness, professionalism, and a welcoming smile. If this is the beginning of our stay, we’re already envisioning an amazing experience ahead. Emma is an absolute credit to your team.”

“Comfortable rooms, beds, and pillows. The staff are really helpful. We'd happily stay there again.”

“The Law Courts Hotel is a lucky find for us and anyone else who wants to camp in the middle of Dunedin. Perfectly located a couple of hundred metres from the Octagonal. Surrounded by any number of great cafes, restaurants, shopping, museums and event centres. An added bonus is the pub style restaurant which is part of the bar downstairs. Well priced (we were initially attracted by a special deal) the lower levels have just undergone a major renovation with updates planned for rooms ahead. Due this, I rate the room as a 4 star with a dated shower but superking bed was comfortable and new. Establishment well managed and maintained. Highly recommended. This is our new favourite downtown overnight stop. P”

“Great value for money, very prime location in the city with free car park included. Our room is well renovated , hot and strong shower, nice bathroom and beds. Reception staff very helpful. Will come back again.”

“It is just houses here. Nothing to do”

“We had a great experience here that we will definitely recommend people to go. Clean room, comfy beds and sofa, well organized kitchen area. John is so friendly and always would like to show you how to feed the sheep and alpaca. Not far away from Dunedin and we will stay there again if going down. ❤️”

“We had another absolutely fabulous stay at The Hydro. The apartment was immaculate and it was amazing to go up on the rooftop on a gorgeous Dunedin weekend . The communication with the host was impeccable. 100% we will be back.”

“Perfect fit for following the Otago Rally over the weekend with the grandchild. So great to have the animals for him to feed and spend time each day after watching the Rally car's. We even got a farewell when departing.”

“Amazing room. High quality, cool decor. A real oasis to come back to. Very central location, good parking underneath the building.”

“Exceptionally clean and very well maintained. Decor is lovely and modern and furnishings very comfortable. The guest lounge area was also exceptionally clean with no grubby marks on the lounges or chairs ...unusual in common areas. The grounds were also well maintained with beautiful gardens and lovely seating areas. Neville and Sandra very friendly and welcoming and the couple of staff we came across were lovely and seemed very happy in their roles. We had a very relaxing and comfortable stay and we would highly recommend staying here. Don't bother looking anywhere else.”

“I came here for found a place for discover the peninsula and with the precious advice of Tessa and Vic we succeed. The lodge is really cozy spacious and cute. Special mention for the spa, which is very pleasant with the sunset. The garden is really appreciate with the sound of the bird on the morning Tessa and Vic are kind host and take attention of all your questions and request.”

“Lovely comfortable rooms, beautiful view and a tasty home-cooked breakfast”

“Reminiscent of an old farm house back in the US, it is a very nice, homey place. A tad bit too old for my tastes with the occasional insect. The hosts, Geoff and Faye, were incredibly pleasant, wonderful, and helpful with recommending points of interest. The cooked breakfast and overall hospitality was second to none!”

“What a beautiful hotel! The rooms were cozy, clean and well-appointed. From the grand staircase to the jacuzzi and amenities in the bathroom, this hotel exceeded all my expectations. There's even a fireplace in our room. It's set in a very quiet spot with gorgeous courtyards in the front and the back of the estate. There is a salon with a fireplace where you can enjoy pre-dinner drinks and cocktails. I had my wedding here and the staff were unbelievably helpful and supportive. It was such a memorable experience and I will definitely be staying here again.”

“I saw it as/in passing to go to Salvation Army opportunity shop in Mosgiel. Two opp shops at least here. Wanted a place to stay the night, but could've ventured back home. Drove back after visiting Mosgiel's opp shops. Also getting sushi lunch there. Drove up, met reception, had a look at the room available, asked the price, then said "I'll take it." Later upon my return, I settled in and can report well worth staying. The room reaches my expectations, even the jug was clean, some places jug has rust inside! Thank you to Regency Motels Mosgiel. (In closing, HeHe, I often wonder with these reviews, what it would be like, if the host was to write a review about---ME!? And other guests report of me, same. Maybe Neighbours of my unit might be writing noisy night, as neighbour was snoring, other than that, the resort was superb). Regards Dcuzbromatov.”

“Thanks Ange & Al for looking after my dog Bella so well, she always comes back exhausted, and I can tell she has had the best time! It's reassuring to know she's being cared for when I am away”

“My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at EBB Dunedin. We loved the unique design of the building and the beautifully styled interiors — the room was thoughtfully furnished and very comfortable. The overall atmosphere is modern yet warm, and everything felt high quality and well considered. The service was welcoming and professional, making the stay even more pleasant. We had a very comfortable experience and would happily recommend EBB Dunedin.”
