The first thing to greet us on arrival at the Carisbrook motel was an upgrade to a two room unit with plenty of space and absolutely spotless. The manager and her partner were terrific people and couldn't do enough for us. They sent us to the local pub up the road and we had good pub grub and once again... More

This motel was very dated but we found it to be clean and the staff were friendly. The area the hotel was in was a little interesting with some run down houses and less than desirable characters living nearby. We went to the tavern down the road for dinner, which was good pub food for a good price. It was... More

Nothing to complain about here, especially given the price. Lovely people, clean comfortable accommodation. The pub on the corner gave a us a real blast of Kiwi culture!

We were booked here through golden chain and found it to be on the main road. It is a old motel dated still in the 70s but clean. About 20min drive into Dunedin and tourist attractions.Bus at the door or 5min walk down the road.Okay for a short stay staff friendly.

We stayed here two nights because our travel agent had booked and paid, if not we would not have stayed, very run down rooms, stained and dirty chairs, peeling wallpaper, noisy heating, only one very thin doona on the bed, very disseminated all round.
