We really loved this motel. It is very conveniently located within walking distance of the central city, Botanical Gardens, and museums. The rooms are immaculate, new, and very well appointed. There is even a night light in the bathroom--they thought of everything! The kitchenette with refrigerator, microwave, and dishes was appreciated. Free parking is offered, very useful in the city. The bathroom is very new with a great shower. All linens were good quality. Internet worked really well. Everything was great!

Be aware of the Asian owner and manager that run the motel. He will try to enter room 5mins before checkout and ask you to vacate the room. He wont care about your privacy and use his master key to unlock the room even before the guests have vacated the room or checked out. The local staff confirmed this that the owner knocks the door pretending room service in morning to vacate rooms on regular basis. Do not stay at this place if you value your privacy.

The space between the shower stall and wall is small. On the wall is a sharp toilet paper holder and sharp towel Rack. toilet fitted in the small space means carefully using toilet or else getting caught on these fixtures. Red soap dish and soap dispenser does not go with grey tiled bathroom. Flimsy bed end tables.

Loved the motel very clean had a well stocked kitchen area and underfloor heating, the only thing that I could suggest is in the winter when it’s very cold if you turn the heating on the day the people arrive as it took a little time to get the room warm. Other than that I will definitely book the hotel again.

Really the perfect motel. Room is in very good and new condition. Great bedroom and bathroom design. Very simple but thoughtful amenities. Had absolutely everything we needed. Will always stay here when visiting Dunedin. The owners obviously really care about the property and their customers. One of the best places I’ve ever stayed, period.

Very welcoming staff. Really clean property. Good range of amenties e.g kitchinette content was good quality and TV with Sky. Beds very comfortable. Great location. Sat nav gets confused regarding location - just put in address not motel name.
Clean towels every day.

Great place to stay in Dunedin

538 Great Kings was a great stay. The location is excellent. The check in was quick and very friendly. Our room was clean and well furnished. WiFi was fast. Overall one of the nicest places we stayed on our visit to New Zealand.

Love the renovated room, nice firm bed. Nice plunger coffee. Housekeeping staff are great. Reception may need improving. We arrived 1:40pm ( yes too early ) nobody at reception, when receptionist came 2pm check-in, we are ok with this. Came back 2:30pm, nobody, rang the phone & waited. 15 mins later we walked around the back & found another Receptionist, phone has no batteries. 3pm checked in. Lucky the room is nice. Happy ending.

We had a downstairs unit which meant that we could hear everything that was happening upstairs, even just them walking around upstairs was very loud. I think that some noise insulation between the floors should have been added when the property was renovated. Nice new kitchen and bathroom facilities, comfortable beds.

Good motel close to CBD

Check in was quick, room was very clean and great amenities included e.g. milk, plunger coffee, tea, microwave and stove top.

Location is close to CBD (5mins drive) and free parking onsite.
