Guest Reviews
Jnr suite is well set out with separate bedroom which was ideal for our needs. Also room was dark & soundproof which was great for sleeping. Bed very comfortable.
Buffet breakfast was ordinary with limited gluten free options. Cafes in the next block offered much better & cheaper options.
EXCELLENT SUITE, FULLY EQUIPPED WITH EVERYTHING A TRAVELLER NEEDS WITH GOOD LIGHTING.
TERRIFIC BREAKFAST, REAL QUALITY FOOD TOO, NOT JUST PLAIN LABEL STUFF PUT OUT FOR THE BUFFET.
WONDERFUL STAFF.
NOTHING.
Parking so handy. Staff at reception made offer of helping with luggage from car parking
I was impressed overall although having stayed before, not surprised. Dinner menu of high quality, very similar to that of my home town's version indicating short stay expected possibly. Staff of excellect standard and ability.
Very good hotel. Best location if staying in Dunedin.
One of the male staff in the bar / restaurant was rude to my wife when she asked for a drink at the bar. There were several people waiting to be served and he was more interested in straightening knives and forks on the tables for breakfast the following morning. He told her she would have to wait.
The receptionist who checked us in was awesome. A quick easy process and she gave me a lot of into about the surrounding area ie. what to see, restaurant options etc. Room was fantastic with comfortable beds and pillows - on the 7th floor with a great view out across the harbour. The washing machine & dryer in the bathroom was such a thoughtful inclusion that we hadn't seen anywhere else across our 3 weeks of travel around the south island. Dinner in the restaurant was delicious and the waiters were very good. Buffet breakfast was also really good, lots of of tasty options.
Nothing. I'd have no hesitation in staying here again.
My room felt like pure luxury!
The bed and pillows were super-duper cosy and it was great having a kitchenette, as one night I chose to eat in. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful and gave excellent restaurant recommendations. My stay there has been by far the best of my accommodation chosen so far on my South Island adventure. The location was an easy walk to the central city district. Highly recommend choosing Distinction Dunedin 🤗
Nothing to report here.
We stayed one evening as part of a 3 day tour of the Southern Island. We had stayed the previous night at Distinction in Te Anau which was ok, but not great. However, we were pleasantly surprised by this hotel in Dunedin. The room was absolutely lovely with plush carpet and a bed that was heavenly! Even thought it's in the middle of downtown we found it to be very quiet. The bathroom was large and updated and we were thrilled that it had a washer and dryer. We would absolutely stay here again!
travelled to Dunedin for surgery which was cancelled until the following day, stayed here at Distinction which was fabulous, comfortable warm and very helpful to extend our stay, thank you.
This is a delightful revamp of an old building. It’s warm, classy and very clean. Beds are comfy. Staff are friendly and approachable. This is now my new favourite in Dunedin. Great restaurant, breakfast variety to suit all tastes.
Nothing not to like.
Close to places i needed to be at during my stay
Exceptional stay
Great location, comfortable and clean rooms, restaurant was nice, convenient parking
