We find the Amross Motel one of the very best we have stayed in. The room size was more than ample, with a very comfortable bed. The attention to detail by the on site owners was much appreciated. The 2 tub chairs were a nice surprise as was the large TV and good heating. The kitchen was well organised as was the attached. breakfast bar. The room was quiet, the curtains are of high quality. We highly recommend Amross motel and will certainly stay there again.

Stayed 4 nights as group of 6. Booked 3 units: 1 bedroom accessible unit and 1 studio (for older parents/in-laws) and a 1 bedroom unit for couple with teenager. Well appointed rooms - exactly as described. Very comfortable; plenty of room in units; spotlessly clean; fully serviced each day. Windows open for good airflow, and the double glazing meant you hardly hear a thing from outside. Excellent lighting - mix of reading light and dimming bedside lights. Sat in the studio unit watching the world go by on the Main Street! And also sat on the outside table and chairs enjoying the sunshine. Spacious bathrooms with good water pressure and plenty of hot water. Great location - able to walk to many areas. Manager recommended a couple of restaurants and we tried 2 of them - glad we did as the food was lovely. Great service - the Managers are really welcoming and kind. Would thoroughly recommend.…

The motel room was spotlessly clean and well presented. The bed was comfortable, two pillows per person offered, both good standard. The room had been aired out prior to our visit and was of a good temperature. Great friendly reception, very helpful. Location was good, we had a car so could drive into centre of city. Would recommend.

From the telephone call to check on our arrival time to handing over the key at the end of our stay, we were impressed with the personable approach by the owners. Could not have asked for more. Unit was very comfortable with an accessible shower. Parking opposite the unit.

This was a really awesome hotel that we enjoyed staying in, it probably helped as we got a free room upgrade to the executive suites. This was a lovely big room, with full kitchenette, spa bath, couch and netflix. They provided shower gel and shampoo with hand soap in a pump. Parking was fine and location was good

A fantastic motel if you’re visiting Dunedin - the rooms are well appointed, and spotlessly clean. The service was fantastic and friendly, and the room rate is excellent value. It’s a really great location, easily within walking distance of the CBD and has an excellent restaurant nearby. Will definitely be back.

Our stay was only a short one but right from the start we were made to feel very important and welcome. Bruce met me on arrival and explained all the attractions and the restaurants. So helpful. The room was clean, tidy, more than adequate and well worth the rate. So close to town we walked 5 mins to shop and dine. So happy with our stay. Thanks to our wonderful hosts.

Friendly hosts with great local knowledge. Easy booking, check in and check out. Booked two rooms (a two bedroom apartment and an executive studio). Both rooms very clean and tidy. Could self cater in either room quite easily and the Night n Day across the road sells most grocery items you might need. Washer/dryer in the executive room, but there is also a laundry available near the office for all guests. Provided a decent amount of fresh milk which was great. The Whittaker's chocolate squares and Moccona coffee provided was really appreciated! Really well set up for families and great value. Thank you!
