Great stay at Amross”
Spent two nights at Amross in Dunedin last week on business - first-time stayer. The welcome was warm and friendly, and the unit I had was spacious, clean, modern and very comfortable. The bed was excellent, good selection of pillows (i prefer thinner pillows, but often Motels just have very thick bulky pillows) and the shower had excellent pressure. They also had Netflix as part of the standard offering which added a great selection to the choice of television viewing. I was kindly referred to Buddha Stix just down the road for thai (takeaway or dine-in) - which was superb, and very convenient. Overall an excellent experience and going forward this would be my first choice for future stays in Dunedin.
Highly recommended for a visit to Dunedin”
This motel was in the perfect location for us. We left the car at the premises and walk around the old city. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They recommended the blue penguins activity at night and I loved it. It is also walking distance from restaurants and cafes. The room was clean, the bed very comfortable and the parking was easy as well. I definitely recommend Amross Motel for a visit to Dunedin.
Warm cosy apartment with friendly host”
Barry and Donna are wonderful hosts at Amross. It is easily located in Dunedin and not too far from the busy part of Dunedin. The apartment was clean and spacious. It had netflix, fully equipped kitchenette, warmer that was pretty effective and a good view of the Dunedin streets. We totally loved it!
Fantastic stay!”
I had a beautiful room. Large with a bay window and a very nice kitchenette. The staff were very friendly. The location is superb. On George St, a short walk to the center of the city, with a bus stop right out front in case you don't want to walk. They also have free parking! I fell in love with Dunedin and I hope to return in the future, and Amross will be my first choice!
Delightful and comfortable ”
This is such a lovely place, close to town. Our room is fresh, super clean with very comfortable bed. It made our visit more enjoyable. Would recommend this gem to anyone who are visiting Dunedin.

A Delightful Surprise ”
Just Delightful. It was very easy to be happy staying at Amross. The location was ideal, walking distance to cafes, supermarkets, shops and local attractions. The apartment was spacious and very comfortable and thoughtfully and tastefully decorated. The staff were friendly and we also enjoyed eating at Willie Cargill's restaurant a few doors down. A wonderful stay, thank you.

Cosy room and Friendly Staff”
Donna was the lady that greeted us with a warm big smile and lead us to our studio room. We booked 2 studio room for 4 of us and everything was perfect. Toilets comes with good working condition heater, room was very clean. Just that things get a bit tricky up the stairs when you have heavy bags. 10 to 15 mins walking to the shopping and restaurants.
Excellent option for business traveler ”
Never met the owners due to my arrive late / leave early travel schedule but they were very helpful in facilitating my stay despite my inconvenient hours. I would not hesitate to stay here again. Room quality was very good; nicely furnished, spacious, very clean. Internet was very, very fast - and wasn't an extra cost. The television was around 50 inches and internet-connected for smart options. A good quality experience for the travel needs I had.
