Traveling to New Zealand? Find Oamaru hotels

We came down for a family 21st birthday. Our room was perfect for what we needed. We got to enjoy the steampunk festival. Thee was also a car rally going on that stayed at The Brydone. So we were able to see all the car's. The people in Oamaru were all friendly. Even thou we were tavelling in our iwn vehicle. The Bydone was so central that we could walk to mjst of...

First thing first. The staff was friendly, and was very helpful booking the blue penguin tour tickets for us. The location was acceptable, and we could quickly drove to the town center and the blue penguin observatory. That's pretty much the good side I would say about this place. The "deluxe" room was a bit small, and we could especially feel the pressure when we t...

I've been traveling around New Zealand for two months and so far, this is my favourite hostel. It's small and feels likd home, staff is really friendly, morning sunrise views from the large windows are fabulous. And there's breakfast! Everything is clean and tidy and the dormroom has the best pod bunks I've seen - they're made of sturdy wood, so they make no noise and ...

when booking I had thought it was overpriced for Oamaru - but when I checked in I was extremely pleased with the sizable space and facilities. The host provided a basket of home baked muffins upon check-in. and was a great source of information regarding the penguin shows.

What a wonderful welcome after a long bus ride......a bottle of milk and fresh baked goods!! The owner, Karen, is exceptional and her wisdom/knowledge is so much appreciated. She booked our penguin tour and highly recommended that we stay with the regular seats. So glad we listened because the regular seats face the ocean and we can watch the Penguins swim in and ma...

I really love this house. Kids was all enjoying staying there

When we arrived there was a problem with our booking which was immediately sorted by the staff finding alternative accommodation in the town centre. We were welcomed back the following day with chocolates and wine as compensation. The staff could not have been more apologetic or contrite;they did all they could to make us welcome. The room was large, well furnished, cl...

as above.the motel is modern, very clean and the staff most helpful when asked for advice. both nights,we cooked on the barbecue, met very pleasant fellow guests and shared drinks in the pleasant outdoor area. oamaru has an interesting victorian precint, which has been either kept intact or restored. i am amazed that cruise ships have not discovered it.

great style goes with the harbour city, staff was really friendly

Lovely. We've stayed there before and we'll stay there again next time we go to Oamaru. Free wifi, reasonably priced rooms, everything is clean and in good condition. They have a nice common area with free tea, coffee and hot chocolate (also available in the rooms). The views are stunning, as the hotel is on top of a hill. The hill can be the only downside if you ...

The host Tina was very friendly and helpful. She is also very considerate to have left the fireplace burning when we arrive on a cold wet night. I absolutely love the huge cosy den and the very well equipped kitchen. I wish I could spend more nights here

Rose is such a wonderful person and an amazing host. Her place is so comfy and just makes you feel at home as soon as you enter. Lenny her cat is so cute too .. Nice big rooms, fully furnished kitchen and neat and clean bathroom. The place is central and has a lot of cafes , restaurants and even a super market within a few 100 metres.. It’s a perfect place so look no ...

The price is relative expensive for the room itself. The shower water is so week and it is cold in the morning. No one was there when we arrived and we have to call the booking customer service. It is not a hotel, it is only a studio. No signs of the place on the street and we do not know if we arrived the right place. there is no staff at all. 床单也感觉痒。I do not feel it ...

Wonderful stay, very spacious and clean, one of the best motels we have stayed in in Oamaru. The check in, check out was a breeze. Value for money.

A wonderful property with exceptional hosts! Convinient location. I dreamt of possibilitys and soft clouds.

Pros: Absolutely beautiful home. Great decors, very charming house. Easy to find. Cons: Expect to have a slightly difficult time if bringing in huge luggage. Water pressure needs more improvement. No dishwasher.

Good place for relaxation

The Whitestone was a wonderful little apartment in a very nice part of Oamaru. Close to all the places you'd like to visit and with all the comforts of home.

Great place to stay which is near the penguins and the owner is lovely. Also very helpful. Rooms are clean and comfortable.

Dewlyn arrange a bigger 1 bedroom motel with full set of kitchen facilities for us. We had a wonderful time preparing dinner with microwave, electric pot, fridge and necessary utensils. It's only 7 mins drive to Oamaru town and supermarket. Indeed there's a shop selling fresh vegetables just opposite motel and a gas station next to motel.

There's a Macdonalds and petrol station just next to the motel and a KFC opposite. A number of other eateries can also be found near the vincity of the motel. Room was just nice for 2 pax with heated blankets for winter!!! The motel staff was all smile despite us checking in at 8pm. The only down side was that it was really difficult to the entrance of the motel. We ma...

GREAT location; walkable to the best of Dunedin; easy to find on main street, but still quiet; friendly and helpful manager by the name of "Love-leen” (sorry, I don't know the proper spelling).

AAA Thames Court Motel is a very modern and new motel and the city of Oamaru. The facilities are well maintained and we enjoyed our stay very much.

Oamaru is a well spread place and this is on the outskirts so it is a couple of miles from centre. That said we enjoyed our stay. A friendly, efficient and more than helpful reception. the room had all the facilities we expected and was clean and in good order. It was on the main road but we weren't bothered by traffic noise (and we are light sleepers). We would...

It is a clean place with kitchen. Easy to park and good location near the main road. We felt comfortable in the room and the staff Ian is really warm. Ian gave us some suggestions about the restaurants in Oamaru. We enjoyed the food of that Italian restaurant. Our neighbours are a little bit noisy. We heard their sound all night.

It is located in the center of Oamaru. Not far from the Oamaru Blue Penguin colony and Bushy beach. The Hostel is also an art gallery because there are many hostel guests paintings. Art is everywhere. At the reception there were two guys playing a beautiful Irish song, one on piano the other on on guitar. Liked the staying there.

Very clean apartment. Definitely will recommend to friends who wish to visit Oamaru

Cosy and amazing! Our favourite hotel in our whole trip. And Comet was just adorable! Very spacious. Has a room heater as well as bathroom heater. Comes with a bathtub, facial cleanser, body gel, shampoo and moisturizer! The bed is very comfortable, also has 2 armchairs and a little balcony. Good selection of TV channels as also DVDs from the reception. Well-equip...

great location to explore the town of Oamaru and very near to the Victoria Precinct and Blue Penguin
