George Street Motel Apartments (previously Farrys

very convenient to town, we were able to walk everywhere. The staff are very helpful, the unit was lovely and clean, and it was great being able to make ourselves breakfast and any other meals we wanted to in the fully equipped kitchen. we would certainly recommend this to anyone

Good place to stay. Has parking within premise.
Excellent location, walkable distance to museum.
Walkable distance to CBD and shops.
Rooms are clean and comfy.
Motel staff are very helpful and friendly.
Room had full kitchen with cooktop and microwave.
Both room and lounge had TV.

Excellent location in the city.  Friendly welcome, with the room warmed up for my arrival.  Excellent standard of room - very clean. Fresh milk in the fridge.  Comfortable bed and furniture.  Would highly recommend and have stayed here on numerous visits.

Very satisfied with this unit. Close to town, walking distance to supermarket, shops and some attractions. The unit was spacious, clean, comfortable and quiet with off-street parking. The hosts were friendly and welcoming. The bed was so comfortable. The little kitchen totally met our needs of being self sufficient. Would definitely stay there again.

Price and proximity to town and the uni were reasons we stayed here. My husband loved the sky tv in the lounge and the freeview tv in the bedroom (one bedroom room) especially since the rugby world cup was on. It was clean, tidy, and the host was lovely. The decor was dated but we expected that for the price and we didn't mind. There was no recycling we saw so we took our recyclables to the bins on the street which were everywhere.

Stayed one week in a unit with a kitchenette. Not fancy but clean & comfortable. The motel is within walking distance to most sites. On site laundry $6 (NZ) to wash & dry a load. The city bus is also a good resource & costs $1.50 (NZ) per ride, regardless where you go. Kitchen stocked with most frequently needed cookware, nice stove & midsized frig. Two large grocery stores a few blocks away. The location felt safe & there was no road noise. The on-site owners were friendly & helpful. I didn’t rent a car but there seemed ample parking. If you have multiple tech items that need simultaneous charging, you may want a power strip. There are ample plug-in power outlets but no USB ports. If I return to Dunedin, I’d be happy to stay here again.

I brought my daughter to Dunedin to have a look around Otago University and we based ourselves sr George St Motel Apartments.  It was the perfect location as we never had too far to walk and we always had a car park there.  The room we had was big enough for both of us, had everything we needed and the beds were comfortable.  The team is great and I thoroughly recommend you check them out.

I have stayed here three times now while visiting my student daughter at Otago Uni. The motel is very convenient to the university and to the student accommodation around the uni. Every time has been excellent. Very clean with lots of extra touches. I stayed in the studio apartment which is fully furnished with a fully functional kitchen. It's great having a living space so you're not sitting on your bed all the time. The owner even defrosted my very frosted up car when I visited during winter last year. I think this place is great value for your money. Very comfortable and convenient

Stayed as i was in town for work. had everything i needed. warm, clean, tidy, comfy bed and great location. easy to book, good carpark, easy to find. will definitely return when i am next back in town.

Nice, central location - close to the Otago university and the Octogon.
Rooms are large enough to host a family of 4, with plenty of cooking equipment, and smart tv which connects to local network, Netflix. Central heating, comfortable.
Great service: access to a washing machine, access to wifi, plenty of brochures for exploring; friendly and warm welcome. 
Highly recommended.

Good Price and Great Location

Comfortable & great location

While not an overtly extravagant motel, the George Street Motel Apartments is decent enough for what it is.  In fact, it surprised me with what it had to offer.  Our family of four easily fitted into a standard room (a large bed in the bedroom for us parents, and two single beds in the lounge for the kids).  The lounge had a large TV, and the bedroom had a second TV.  It was clean, tidy, and warm.  And, the plunger coffee was great!

We stayed in the height of summer, so cooling was a little bit of an issue, but the sleep was still comfortable.  The room has many types of heating (including central heating) but it didn't seem to offer the same facilities for cooling.  I'd be interested to see what the room is like in winter, as the large window appeared to be single glazing, and the doorframe seemed to leak in outside air.  In Dunedin, temperature is everything.

Parking was fine (we were right down the back, away from the street side, so I felt our car was safe).  We were staying on the top floor, so it was a little bit of a sport to get all our luggage up and down the stairs.  The receptionist was very friendly and helpful.  All in all, the accommodation turned out better than what I was expecting, and I'd happily stay there again.

Ideal overnight spot on a roadtrip

Great base to stay in Dunedin

A great place to stay in North Dunedin

It would be very easy to provide a higher rating were it not for a couple of very minor issues.
Reception upon arrival was friendly although no other dialogue other than being instructed where my room was given. One question I had to ask was where to park, and therein is one of those issues. The answer was anywhere there was a space, which is limited given the number of rooms and the fact that some occupants seem to feel the need to straddle two marked parking areas.
Room itself, upon entry was fabulous regards décor and what was provided, which included plenty of furnishings, including a sofa, spare single bed, table and chairs, and a large TV screen. Kitchenette included a stove as well as a microwave and good assortment of utensils and beverage provisions. I was super impressed.
Bedroom was a little more basic in décor but contained a wonderfully comfortable Queen size bed plenty of storage space and another TV.
Bathroom was the other issue resulting in a slight slippage of overall rating. While on the small but adequate size, the shower was quite small and provided water that fluctuated in temperature (without additional manual control). Showering; stepping out; and drying oneself all required some additional calisthenics to achieve an adequate result.
What was excellent was the fact that the room was serviced daily, so there was no requirement to have to resupply your own beverage provisions or be required to continuously re-use the same bathroom linen over a period of time.
Also provided was an excellent allocation of free Wi-Fi.  
Being located on one of Dunedin’s main streets does make for the occasional noise disturbance but this was very minimal. What it does provide for is close proximity to all manner of shopping, including many eateries.
Absolute excellent value for money, and one place I shall certainly consider returning to when ion the area.

Excellence On A Budget

Great place, great service

We had a clean, well supplied apartment for one week during our visit to Dunedin. The property is located in a handy position to the City centre, while there is a Bus Stop across the road for those like us who do not have a car. The staff at George Street are very friendly and extremely helpful with any queries you may have.
Thank you for making our stay a very enjoyable one.

Excellent location.

We are regular customers at this motel and it pains me to write this review because we don’t really want our gem discovered but I feel I just must. We arrived around 11am on my birthday afternoon hoping we might get lucky and check-in early. Not only could we check-in early but the owner upgraded our room from the cheapest we could find at the establishment to their super luxury apartment (4 bedrooms, massive kitchen, lounge/dining, private gated sunny patio for the kids to run around).  It was such a wonderful surprise and we couldn’t have been happier. Thank you so much to the owner, it was just fabulous. We can’t wait to come back to Dunedin again even if we don’t get to stay in the luxury apartment next time :), GEORGE ST APARTMENTS YOU ARE AWESOME!!  Best showers, location, super quiet, well-priced, full kitchen facilities, such good value and perfect for families. Thanks again!!!
