Kingsgate Hotel Dunedin

The room had a private balcony, fabulous view and two big beds. It had everything I wanted except for bathroom cleanliness. It was roomy and warm. Good selection of teas and coffees. Beds were very comfortable.

The bath!!!! The balcony in being able to be in the fresh air, view from room over town. TV having free SKY movie channels. Wifi easy access. Pillows were comfy and soft, as was the bed. Lamps were good near TV, bed. Table lamp was great for doing computer work. Good wardrobe and luggage space. Choice of double bed beside window or interior. Liquid soap and shampoo/conditioner were soothing and silky, moisturising. Good safety with bubble surface on bath and anti slip mat. Great mirror in bathroom. Towels very soft. Liked the face cloth decoratve display. Lift access to rooms good, location in Dunedin well within walking distance to CBD and town. Daily cleaning and fresh milk good. Fridge in cupboard good, chairs and table great. Good breakfast, porridge an extra bonus with toppings, seeds, good variety fruits, cereals, provision for glutlen free, wide variety of breads. The beautiful wooden carved mural of Victorian times added to he dining expereince. Hotel staff, reception, dining room, cleaning,, could not have been more helpful and friendly. My stay was associated with a court hearing, so the Kingsgate was the ideal place in quiet, private, comforting ambience to stay. I especially appreciated hotel assistance when I had my booking cancelled by an agnecy and then I accidentally booked the wrong date. Also, having staff bring a food delivery person to my door when I was extremely tired, was absolutely wonderful. I look forward to the Jimmy Cook dining experience when returnng to Dunedin. The hotel had a warmth of atmosphere with its older, rather than ultra modern sterile style. This gave a sense of the wealth of history living within the hotel, of belonging with many people who had come to stay inside its walls. It is very "comfortable" in this unseen aspect, that makes the Kingsgate a great stay. I would like to suggest that this historic aspect of the hotel be retained and further enhanced in any future renovations.

A very clean but well worn hotel right in the center of the city. Excellent staff. Good value as our booking included a hearty breakfast with hot and cold options. Our booked room had an issue with a non functioning sliding door and we were immediately upgraded to a very spacious Suite. Excellent service.

Central to whole downtown area , clean, well priced and good value form money.

Good bed, room in closet for clothes, but not enough hangers; iron worked well; when I asked for a thinner pillow, one was brought up to me Breakfast good
