"This is a beautiful historic property presented to the highest of standards. Convenient for the interesting town of Oamaru which has lots of eating places, as well as lovely buildings and museums which are definitely worth a visit. Hosted by Brenda and Katrina, who couldn’t be more helpful and accommodating. The themed rooms are stunning, well equipped and beautifully presented. Breakfast is personalised to your own requirements and very tasty. We couldn’t recommend highly enough."

Brydone Hotel Oamaru ★★★

📍 115 Thames Street, Oamaru

"I arrived in Oamaru around 6 PM. There were hardly any people on the streets, and all the shops were closed. The location was good, and parking was free. However, the blankets they sold were a particularly ugly color. The elevator was out of service, which was unfriendly to people with large luggage."

Oamaru Motor Lodge ★★★★

📍 391 Thames Highway, Oamaru North, Oamaru

"We stayed in Oamaru for one night to watch the penguins return to their nests. Although the hotel is small and well-equipped, it is clean and hygienic. The location is also good. It is relatively close to the center of the town, which is convenient for us to return home. The seaside town of Oamaru is also a great place to hang out. The hotel overall is good value for money."

Pen-y-bryn
9.6 (35 reviews)

Pen-y-bryn ★★★★★

📍 41 Towey Street, Holmes Hill, Oamaru

"This was definitely the best hotel stay we have ever had. From the first moment we got out of the car and were greeted in the parking lot by one of the owners, to the tips on how to get into town, what to see, the binoculars given to us to see the penguins better, to advice on the holiday the next day and the efforts to book us a restaurant at our next stop in Dunedin, we realized that both owners want to provide excellent customer service and really do with their efforts. The three course dinner that evening was superbly put together and executed! If we ever come to New Zealand again, we will definitely plan our tour to stay at Pen-y-Bryn Lodge again for at least one night. It is recommended to book half board here as the food and service are really something special."

"We were the only guests for our nights stay. we went to the Blue Eyed Penguin observation and wandered around town. Very Steam Punk. The lodge was pretty awesome. Our room, Elizabeth, had a ensuite bathroom and very comfortable and seating for two. We had a dinner at the Lodge just for the 2 of us. A lovely night and following day breakfast. It had all the fixings. The public rooms were quite opulent and fun to see all the books, etc. The proprietor was very helpful in all counts. Helped with finding us a Doctor to go to and a fantastic driving route up to Mt Cook."
