Leviathan Hotel Co Ltd

Great value for money, very prime location in the city with free car park included. Our room is well renovated , hot and strong shower, nice bathroom and beds. Reception staff very helpful. Will come back again.

From the outside, there is no appeal to stay here. It really does need a lick of paint etc.||However, pleasantly surprised inside. All the common areas have been restored and refurbished, all look good. Mind you, didn't use the bar or restaurant.||The room we were in had been similarly restored/refurbished. Compact, but what you would expect from an old hotel.||It's definitely central, less than 5 mins to the Octagon and also the Railway Station.||Overall, better than I expected. Would i stay there again? Only possibly, would have liked more space in a room.

The receptionist was lovely and helped me with my suitcases and explained places to visit in town. It was quite an eerie hotel with a lot of old fashion furniture and creaking floorboards. The beds were very comfortable but the rooms could do with a bit of upgrading.

Pillows lumpy, aswell beds, have obviously never been replaced. Shower curtain covered in mold, shower head designed for anyone under 5’4. Pressure average. Place smelt bad. Jugs again have obviously never been replaced, was scared to put water in it. Nice design if it was 1922. Not worth the cost to stay.

Lady at the front counter was absolutely no help. Gave me key, told my room number, but not how to find it, and expected me to know where to go (other people had same opinion too, as I showed them where their room was) Website and welcome board, state evening meals are available. Which i was relying on with a 4yro. I asked about meals, she said theyre not done on weekends - and I pointed out welcome board & she replied 'they should probably change that'. Disappointing to be fair. No laundry use between 10pm & 8am - yet 10.30pm people are banging and crashing in there which was next to my room, waking my little one. First and Last experience at the Leviathan Hotel

Awesome place to stay: Super friendly and helpful staff who gave us a full historical tour of the building. It's close to otago settlers museum, railway building, octagon and amazing places to eat. Clean and tidy rooms with comfy beds, and everything else we required to make our three night stay awesome. Thank you

Great location. Staff at reception were hit and miss depending on who it was. Some were friendly, some not so much. Rooms were OK. Clean and warm. Great for solo or working individuals, not so much for families.

Decent budget option if you're just looking for a place to sleep. It's very affordable and located right in the middle of the city, which is convenient. That said, the hotel is quite old and could really use some updates. Some areas had a bit of a smell, which wasn’t ideal. Overall, you get what you pay for-okay for a short stay if you're not too fussy.
