Very modern, spacious rooms, friendly staff, comfortable beds, feels high end. Even a regular room is as big as suites in many other hotels and it’s not crammed full with accessories you don’t need but take up space like desks etc.

    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.

    I booked Bluestone on George as Fable, my normal Dunedin hotel, was booked out. I didn’t have any particular expectations, but I was wowed by how immaculately clean Bluestone is, with quality fittings. Fantastic location that’s an easy walk to Forsyth Barr stadium and an ideal spot for family visiting student children in North Dunedin. My 4th floor room had an incredible view and I like the way the property is set back from the road.

    We loved our stay at the Hotel. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The food at both restaurants was delicious and we would definitely recommend them as a choice to eat at in Dunedin. The rooms were very clean and spacious and tidy. We will definitely stay there again in January 2026 when we travel to Dunedin again.
