Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
An historic hotel, well maintained with spacious rooms. The location is excellent on the Main Street (which is very quiet at night) and within walking distance of all the main attractions (galleries, steampunk, cafes etc). Breakfast was very good and the staff both friendly and efficient. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Value for money

Even though this is a bit of a tired hotel, the staff was great, we rested well, the parking is convenient, the towels were absorbent, and we had plenty of hot water in the shower. An economical option in Oamaru if you want to be close to the historic downtown.
