Bluestone On George

Wow, wow, wow. We have been regular visitors to Dunedin over the years staying in midrange accommodation with the occasional treat price too. This place has exceeded them all. The property is spotless. There is an attention to detail and comfort. Our spa studio was spacious. The bed was grand, linen luxurious and very comfortable. The gym is small but has enough to keep the strength training habit and again, spotlessly clean. There are also comfortable shared lounge areas and drinks available, and outdoor spaces. If it’s a choice between here and somewhere just a little cheaper, spend the extra dollars, it’s worth it.

What did we like? Everything- this place takes great pride in what they do! From parking on site with the beautfiully presented garden area (but be ready for a hill park) to the friendly staff, the elevator to our floor, the beautifully appointed, sparkling clean rooms, very comfortable bed, with a pretty groovy kitchen for a motel! The bathroom was spotless with a spabath/shower (so need to step in) with nice soaps/shampoos. Also had a condenser washer/dryer which we were very grateful for (plus a sweet little drying rack if dryers aren’t your thing). Communal sitting rooms were stylish and brigh and very inviting -especially with a drinks menu! There was a great little gym too! The location is very near to a fair few cafe/restaurants- easy walking distance. Overwhelmingly it seems to be a student area with lots of life and positive energy. but there are just a few ‘dodgy characters’ as we see in all cities now. However, the Bluestone stands out as beautiful modern property in an area of really classic large old homes- gave me San Francisco vibes! I feel nothing would have been too big an ask for the staff, they were very helpful, but everything you would expect in a motel was catered for, and more. A truly lovely place to stay!

Wauw, what a great surprice. We stayed 2 nights on Bluestone - our room was 405 which means we were on the top ( elevator is available) with balcony and view over the city/surroundings. Huge beautiful room with very comfortable bed, a kitchen area with washing machine ( very needed) and a warm bathroom. |Free parking up-hill - no problem lost of space - and the "hotel" is just so nice with lovely furnitures in the living area. I wish we have had more time just to sit and relax there. The host is welcoming and friendly, and the hotel is clean with arrangement of flowers in the garden. Everything is so fine. Breakfast restaurants e few minutes walk, and downtown is 10 minutes a way. Excellent choice in Dunedin.

The entire experience from beginning to end was excellent. Our hosts were very helpful and put a lot of pride and effort towards offering their guests a unique and memorable visit. Rooms are charming and offer every modern convenience in a spotless setting. Location is in central Dunedin, and walking distance to many restaurants and attractions. Our room had an amazing view over the city and harbor. The amenities in our room were comprehensive and even included a personal wash/dry machine.

A beautiful boutique motel in Dunedin.||This lovely accommodation is in an excellent location, has complimentary car parking, along with stylish decor, balcony and fantastic views (from the high floors) over Dunedin.||It's the little extras provided such as - bathrobes, underfloor heating in the bathroom, Elemis toiletries, choice of pillows and lots more.||The rooms were well laid out and very clean. The grounds were lovely with lots of outdoor areas to sit and a lovely communal lounge and waiting area. ||I was able to check in early which was a big bonus and the staff were helpful and welcoming.

We loved our 6 night stay here. The spotlessly clean and modern apartment was easy to keep warm due to a very efficient wall heater plus the underfloor heating in the spacious bathroom. The kitchenette was well stocked and we made use of the washer/dryer. I found the bed and pillows very comfortable and just loved the feel of the whole place. There is good off-street parking, and Bluestone is very central so we walked to most places that we wanted to visit. The Governor's Cafe quickly became my favourite and that was only 500m away. We highly recommend Bluestone On George as a fantastic place to stay.

Modern and well-equiped room in a fantastic location. Walking distance to shops, restaurants and the train station. Would stay here again and would recommend. People with mobility issues should note that the car park is on a steep incline and getting suitcases in and out of cars is challenging.

This place is immaculate and the attention to detail is amazing. Leaving early on a cold frosty morning I thought one of the staff had missed a beat and left cleaning materials outside by the front door till I realized it was a bucket of warm water, a squiggly and an ice scraper for the windscreen. They have truly thought of everything to make your stay the best it can be.
