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.

We just stayed one night on our way to Stewart island as we have been here many times.
We did a trip to Port Chalmers as we hadn’t been there. It a a cute town with a working port. Worth a look and a bit of a walk around.

St Clair beach good places to stay and eat. Easy city to get around.
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.
This attractive hotel is a very modern design and has some great features. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Good, quiet location and we paid for the convenience of the hotel car park. Our room was very clean and comfortable and had everything we could want. You could buy drinks and snacks in the room (inc cocktails). We enjoyed breakfasts/snacks in the hotel cafe and we could explore Dunedin easily. There were lots of restaurants and bars nearby.
everything in this apartment is high end and luxury in a historical building!
love the furniture and interior design! full of Victorian character!
love the food, coffee and tea provided.
Dan is a great host! we had a little problem with the microwave in one of the evenings. after messaged Dan, he rang me immediately and had Andrew came and fixed it in a minute! that was incredible! Bell Hill apartment is the highlight of our Dunedin trip!
Excellent space, style and layout. The apartment has been beautifully restored and well appointed.
While the apartment is next to a busy arterial road, and naturally gets some traffic noise in the lounge (but not excessively so), the double glazing and general soundproofing works a treat in the bedroom.
It's situated next to a part of Dunedin that has gone through a revival so the food options are on point.
Put simply, I could live here.
The location of this hotel is close to the heart of Dunedin. It's a beautiful historic building with great character. Staff were great to talk too, very friendly and helpful. The Grand casino is only a 10min walk if you like that sort of thing but a lovely place for dinner.
Our hotel room was very comfortable, good facilities but cold, which once the heater was on if was nice and warm.
My general experience of New Zealand is that accommodations are overpriced and underachieving. Hope Street was quite the reverse. I wanted to stay longer, because it was so convenient and comfortable. Don't expect luxury, mind you, not at the very fair price I paid. But everything I needed and one of the few places I looked forward to going home to.
Hotel was beautifully decorated, upmarket and plush. Room amenities were wonderful. Loved the Coffee and Tea facilities and spa quality bathroom amenities. Wonderful continental breakfast. Walking distance from Dunedin Octagon and shopping. Concierge facilities great. Loved our stay. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.
This property is very well located, walking distance to the Octagon, Railway Satation and accross the bridge to the city cruise port (not Port Chalmers!). The focus on magic was a fun aspect of the hotel. Everything worked. No aircon (but not often needed in Dunedin) Reasonably priced, but you get what you pay for.
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.
room was large and equipped well. very clean. close to everything - we walked the city and did not need to drive.
bed was comfortable.
the hotel staff was incredible. Barry and Donna were gracious and friendly. they made us feel as if we were guests in their home.
Beautiful boutique hotel well appointed self contained room.
Everything required is in the room washing and drying facilities
Rooms are immaculately maintained as is the rest of the property
Great location in Dunedin easy walk to restaurants
Beautiful spot, well thought out interior design, warm, cosy and friendly host with great communication. Definitely exceeds expectations and will be back, far far better than a hotel. Thanks guys
