An Excellent well kept Hotel in Dunedin

Bluestone on George is a very well maintained and comfortable hotel on the high side of George Street. It is a comfortable 15 minute walk to the centre of Town and 5 minutes more to the station. The hosts were friendly and dealt with our one minor problem quickly. We would not hesitate to use this hotel again.

Impeccably Clean & Great Spot to Explore Dunedin

Loved our three night stay at Bluestone On George. Our room was on the third floor with a small balcony. Location was very walkable to nearby restaurants and the Octagon though walking up from the street to the hotel entrance can be a little steep for some. Convenient On-Site parking. Our room was impeccably clean and comfortable. Location is convenient to visiting nearby sites and reasonable drives to Moeraki, The Royal Albatross Centre or a nice days outing to Nugget Point Lighthouse.

What a wonderful hotel. Everything has been thought about. The bed is swoon-worthy. I love that there was a washer/dryer in room, and everything in the little kit he to feel at home. Added bonus is the heated bathroom floor. A definite favorite.
