Easy walks to settlers museum, old prison tour, and railroad station where we took a trip into the rural area inland. A lot of students drinking during their winter holidays, but the hotel is sufficiently off the octagon that there wasn’t much noise.bring your own electrical adapters!

We really enjoyed our stay at The Chamberson. Great location right in the middle of the city. Self check-in was okay, parking was okay but low ceiling does really restrict size of vehicle. We had a mid size SUV and no issues.

Here’s a polished and more fluid version of your review: We were dropped off right at the doorstep by the airport shuttle in central Dunedin, which was so convenient. The hotel kindly stored our bags while we explored, and we popped into Maggie’s, one of the many charming cafes surrounding the area. Our room was lovely—tucked up in the eaves, it featured a large, comfortable bed, hot drink facilities, and a gorgeous ensuite complete with luxurious toiletries and fluffy towels. For dinner, we headed to the Octagon, a perfect spot with its many bars and restaurants. We enjoyed a delicious meal and a relaxing drink in this vibrant setting, just a short walk from the hotel. When we returned, we closed the skylight, making the room so dark and cozy that we slept for hours—absolutely perfect! For this price point, it was an excellent experience overall.

Choose this property for it location in proximity to the Octagon. Had tickets for a performance at the Regent, which was a few minutes walk away, and the dining establishments were numerous and close by. It is a self check in, which works well, just be sure to read your email for door codes and parking information. Cleaning staff is available in the morning only. No staff on site, during the afternoon or evening.
