Great wee wkend away, quiet & great location”

I'd stay here again, the location was suburb, wee cafes, bars and great resturants a short walk, whilst hearing the occean, st Claire's pool cafe Saturday morning was amazing, view & food. The bed was soft & comfy, great sheets, and electric blanket a bonus, heat pump for warmth , The only downfall was the Tv wasn't opposite the bed, so couldn't stay warm in bed and watch telly. If it had a,swivel even woupd be better. The bath was the main feature for me and hug pressure shower. Will stay again. Bit disappointing Dunedin isn't cheap like the rest of nz.But a great stay.

Location,location,location!

We had a wonderful stay at St Clair. Only 10 mins drive from a busy Dunedin- market day etc. Had a sea view beautiful room. Sat and watched the surfers while sipping a glass of rose wine. Booked a table for dinner that night. Fabulous meal. If back in that part of New Zealand would stay there again. Next morning went to the Penguin Place on the peninsula. So worth the drive.

Nice trip to Dunedin”

While St. Clair is a bit outside of Dunedin, it has everything a vacation family needs. It has the full kitchen with a living area and a separate bed for our daughter. Everything is upscale and the bed is very comfortable. The only pity is that the restaurant had a private function and hope we will try it next time.

Room with an awesome view!”

We stayed at The Hotel St Clair for our last might in New Zealand and were not disappointed. It is directly across from a surfing beach so it was wonderful to watch all the surfers, paddle boarders and young children in the water. We went to sleep with the sound of waves crashing! We had been on a tour before this so we had no car. We took a public bus from the center of Dunnedin and were within an easy walk to the hotel.

Ask to be put in a spacious room. I have stayed at St Clair Beach a couple of times and will stay there again, however make sure you are not put in the wheelchair access room as it is small and hospital like,unless of course you are in a wheelchair. I would highly recommend this hotel.
