Reviews for Ocean Beach Hotel
Review 1:That we were only there for one night
Review 2:The food was excellent, all freshly made, great portions. The best beer batter on the most perfect fish I've ever had.
Review 3:It was a unpleasant experience with this motel which has neither in-room kitchen nor shared kitchen. My request for changing to another room for WiFi access (WiFi is not accessible in some rooms. I touched nothing in my room before my request) was rejected rudely even there were enough vacancies.
Review 4:For motel accommodation connected to a local watering hole it was pleasantly immaculately clean with good facilities. We booked out 3 rooms and they were all good.
Review 5:We were not warned when we booked that a band would be playing at the pub (owned by the same people I'm guessing) long into the night. This did keep us awake and would have been nice to not have to deal with it. If is was some little old couple I don't think they would have taken so kindly to it
Review 6:If we had not had to get up early and do things that required brain activity the next day the fact the pub was so handy would have been a big bonus!
Review 7:It will be good when all the rooms have microwaves.
Review 8:Another successful visit to Ocean Beach Motel. The rest of my trip was terrible, but the motel made up for it. A great price, with no frills. A dairy right across the road if you want to grab some cereal for breakfast. I love this motel.
Review 9:Just that I noticed that around the base of the taps were not clean and I found a piece of fat from someone's previous ?takeaway meal on the base of one of the chairs. I picked it up and put it in the bin. Just needed a good scrub between guests.
Review 10:The location was interesting and the people were friendly and interesting. We also enjoyed two tasty meals in the restaurant.
Review 11:staff even brought our meals over to our room when it was ready .we were tired after a long days work so for them to do this without being asked we felt was kind of them.
Review 12:Parking outside unit was used by hotel patrons.
Review 13:Great location, very clean, bathroom although basic had great shower with never ending hot water, heat pump kept room at a comfortable temperature.
Review 14:The room was very small, there was nowhere to sit outside, the bathroom was small
Review 15:The wifi, the location, the staff, the pub next door for food, the price
Review 16:Bathroom basin too small No dark beer on tap.
Review 17:Great value for serviced studio.Very clean and modern inside and with heat pump. Staff could not have been more helpful. I had gone to visit my Mother at her rest home close by. I also liked that only 20m away was the very nice bar & restaurant. The complex may not look much from the road, but it was like opening up the oyster to find the pearl inside.
Review 18:we could still smell the cleaning. around 9:50 staff come to remind we need to check out at 10AM. That's ok but that is the only case we faced at NZ.
Review 19:low cost and good room. not in down town but it is ok. have lots of bars/supermarket nearby and it is quiet.
Review 20:bathroom sliding door binding when you try and close it.Just an adjustment thing no big deal really.
Review 21:All good the price the room the location warm room comfortable bed sure to stay there again
Review 22:As I didnt get to stay at the Ocean Beach, despite booking, and having my booking confirmed, its difficult to say. Their units are probably clean and tidy but I cannot confirm that.
Review 23:The receptionist at the other motel I stayed in. I think it was called the Dunedin Holiday Park. She couldn't have been more helpful.
Review 24:The people next door arguing at 9pm
Review 25:I don't need a 5 star restraunt, but I'm glad it had a microwave to heat up the meals I brought with me. Ocean Beach has everything you need with no frills at a great price. I have already recommended it and will again.
Review 26:Nothing to say the reception was in a pub, felt unfortable going in there when it was full, very noicy at night nothing to say respect our guest when you leave at night my other half didnt get to sleep till 2am because of the nose it wasnt what we expected wouldn't go there again its not what I would call a hotel!
Review 27:The room its self was lovely clean, good comfortable bed very sweet.
Review 28:we know our way to the bar but a first time stayer may be find it a bit confusing.

Review 89:The bar was a great way to spend the evening. The bed was comfortable and the shower was excellent. Good value for money and close to the beach.
Review 90:unfortunately parking was a problem as if you went out when you returned it was not always possible to park outside your allotted accommodation.
Review 91:for us it was an ideal stay and easy to get to the centre and tour around. with excellent food to eat in the bar.
Review 92:Dunedin weather which was really bad and didnt spend time at the beach because of it, sounds from bar as music was very loud and annoying, to many locals having their wateringhole there at that bar on a daily base, heathpump not working in my room properly, except for cleaners didnt see any staff , i guess they were always at the bar as the recption is behind the counter at the bar, wich i find annoying as the receptionist is also the bartender.
Review 93:location and not to far from the beach which is handy if you into surfing, but surf is strong and not suitable for childeren, big parking, nice room, which is comfortable and clean.
Review 94:Basin too small and the small shelf under the mirror is a hazard during washing the face. Room for two but one chair only. A coffee table and a chair is required. The internet access was very bad...
Review 95:Clean bed
Review 96:The beds are old and uncomfortable, carpet needs a clean and bathrooms a tidy up
Review 97:It was clean and tidy, nothing flash but certainly not the worst we have stayed in, I would stay there again
Review 98:The exterior entry may put prospective customers off, reception in the bar. We had a drink in the bar but going inside could be difficult for some.
Review 99:Proximity to the Pacific, 5 mins drive to City, food outlets close by. The motel room had one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in, fantastic shower that you didn't have to fight with and most importantly for me was the reasonable cost.
Review 100:Immediate area not particularly salubrious. The bathroom was the worlds smallest and definitely not for the larger person! The name of the hotel does not match what you might expect. Definitely for a 1 night stay only.
Review 101:Friendly and helpful manager, easy to get a beer!
Review 102:There was nothing to moan about.
Review 103:Close to Caversham. Very lovely staff and clean rooms, we stayed 3 days and very happy with our stay. Great value for your dollar.
Review 104:the blanket smells. I don't think it was changed/wash after every guest used it. only the sheets and linen are fresh. we had to flip the blanket over other side.
Review 105:great value for money. very near st kilda beach which has awesome view. can park the car right in front of your room. provides kettle, toaster, tv, towels and ensuite bathroom.
Review 106:-There is a bar right across where all the motels are to stay; the bar can be quite noisy until late -Far from the octagon
Review 107:-People at the bar are really friendly -Cheaper relative to other places in Dunedin -Near the beach -Free parking
Review 108:Bar is very close and a little loud (stayed on a Friday night) so bring earplugs. St Kilda is not an area I would stay in again but if want to be in that location it is a decent motel.
Review 109:Room is very clean and the toiletries and coffee/tea etc are better than average.
Review 110:Location out of city and not suitable for our needs. Not disappointed but lesson learned. Only here one night so no prob. More than one night might be as bar shuts early, no real decent eating place and room cleanliness basic at best. Curtains slightly mouldy for example.
Review 111:Satisfied we got what we paid for
Review 112:Lack of support wall handle in the shower. One more chair in the unit would have been good.
Review 113:Tastefully decorated. Very clean and neat. Great shower force. Nice silent heat pump. Excellent value and comfy modern bed.
Review 114:We were a group of friends stayed the night while attending a rugby test. We found the staff friendly & helpful. The units looked as thought they were recently refurbished. They were clean & tidy. The bathrooms were very small - but great water pressure! Not close to town but bus stop right outside. We had a bar meal for tea which was good value for money. Over all great value for money. Will stay again
Review 115:The bathroom was tiny and the walls had been recently repaired so made it look old. The location at the end of a street, looked dingy but wasn't.
Review 116:It was cheap, had a bar where you could get dinner, was surprisingly quiet. It was clean, price was good, bed & pillows were comfy.
Review 117:Car parks outside the three units we stayed in were used by hotel patrons, who left late at night, were intoxicated and who woke us with shouting and general drunken behavior. Hotel patron car parking should be away from Motel units.
Review 118:Very good heating via heat pump.
Review 119:A bit far away from the bus station, but there's not a lot can be done about that!
Review 120:Perfectly adequate for what I wanted: a nice comfortable bed for the night while on my travels. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Review 121:When bar closed people leaving bar made a hell of noise, woke most people in hotel up. shame as the night had been good up till the bar closed. think if door into bar was on the south side of bar the rooms would here far less noise
Review 122:Good location
Review 123:A bit to noisy Saturday night when bar closed at midnight & People gathered out side of bar by rooms they made a lot of noise woke me up.
Review 124:Close location to what I was doing, free beer when had feed at bar
Review 125:Saturday night it was so noisy outside it was impossible to sleep, went on till 4am.
Review 126:Beach nearby, bus stop to centre right outside, free beer at bar when you show room key.
Review 127:The evening meal at the hotel was lovely and would recommend to anyone. Also reasonably priced and with a free drink with each meal - very good value. Motel unit was comfortable, warm and clean. Very good value for money all round
Review 128:There was meant to be free Wi-Fi but there wasn't any Wi-Fi so that was disappointing.
Review 129:Everyone was very nice to deal with and we were very comfortable
