I spent two days and one night at this hotel, and it was an incredibly comfortable experience. The design is unique, combining classical art elements that transport you back in time, while still featuring modern amenities that add a special touch. Highly recommend!

The elevated location offered good views and the morning sun allowed us to wake up refreshed and ready to start the next day's itinerary. It was also conveniently close to a supermarket. The surrounding area is a quiet residential area and a walk to the nearby park gave us a view of the sea. The facilities are clean and comfortable.

The building is old and beautiful. It's kept clean and well maintained. The room is clean and nice. Views are amazing. The staff is friendly and professional. We had to leave early on our first morning there to catch the train (before the hotel breakfast time). But they cooked breakfast for us earlier. It was so nice of them.

Everything.......and the little things! Adele & Grey have such a beautiful property with stunning views that are as good if not better than the photo's. The location is perfect to enjoy both Dunedin 7km away and seeing wild sea lions 7km in the other direction. Close enough to everything too. Careys Bay Historic Pub ( hotel ) is a must for old English pub feel with great staff, food and a stunning view! The outdoor wood fired spa is an awesome touch that the kids and us all loved. Everything was provided and there were some little touches of a beautiful basket of bread, breakfast supplies, condiments, juice...............thanks Adele & Greg for a great place to stay! Special shout out to Cara 🐕 too!

    We had a family apartment which was bigger than we needed, but it was the only room available. The loft style would be excellent for families with older children - quite a unique layout.
