★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Stayed here on a work trip, just needed somewhere to rest for the night.
The cons: The room I has was very dated. Like, quite dated. Everything was either brown, or a browny-cream, or yellow. I think it was last renovated in the 60s or 70s.
The bed wasn't comfortable, I think the bed was purchased just after the room was built. I slept on top of the blankets to give it some padding.
There was no extractor fan in the bathroom.
The noise. So. Much. Noise. Want to hear the person in the next room ordering room service? Well boy oh boy, do I have a hotel recommendation for you. You could hear every little thing people did in the rooms around you. Thank the gods I was exhausted to the point where I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.
The meh: There was a stark contrast in the decor between the elevator landing zone (looks like it was recently updated) and the hallways (felt like I'd travelled back in time 50 years).
Communal fridge was a bit weird. Sort of like throwing your keys in a bowl at one of those parties your parents used to throw, except you left with someone else's meat instead of their wife.
Brownie trifle sounds really good in theory but it's served in a jar and was really awkward to eat. Didn't help that the brownie had been chilled since the room was renovated and was quite tough.
The pros: The staff were super nice. Explained the carpark to me, showed me where the bars and restaurants were. Super friendly. 10/10.
Restaurant was great. Ordered the steak. Perfectly cooked. Perfect amount of mushroom sauce too. I would absolutely eat there again.
Really enjoyed the shower. Water pressure was good. The bathroom had been renovated recently so it was quite a nice place to chill out for a bit and reflect on the world.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Location is the middle of the Invercargill CBD but it's still nice and quiet, it's a older place but has been kept clean and modern, service is first class.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Was ok. After the first night they only made two of the three beds? And didn't replace some of the condiments?No air conditioning or fan provided in the heat. Very dated. No utensils. Rooms aren't sound proof.My daughter was sick on the last night. They were very understanding about the linen.. Rooms really clean and tidy.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We stayed here for a night in a classic room and I was completely unimpressed with the room. It felt old and “nannerish”. There was no cooling and the room was hot all night. I’m unsure why we were given the disability access bathroom???? For those requiring it the space was good but you wouldn’t get around the rest of the room. I felt like we were staying in a converted hospital room which was really creepy. The room was nothing like what was represented on the website. We were advised that buffet was not available due to Covid which was no problem but then they served us the buffet prepared food they did for a tour group. On the flip side the lady in the breakfast room was really lovely and polite and did her best to make the experience a little less creepy!!!!! If your looking for a quick stop over then I guess this place would do. If you’re looking for something more relaxing and comfortable then I would give it a wide berth.
