Very comfortable unit and professional staffs
We really like the apartment unit (2 bedrooms, living, toilet). The whole unit is very clean and the beds are very comfortable. The wifi is fast and easy to connect. The children love the unit. It was easy to call reception and they quickly send a professional staff to attend to your needs.

Great hotel and awesome staff
We stayed at Distinction @ Dunedin for the last 2 nights of the trip. The hotel is modern, clean and centrally located, and the breakfast was great. As our stay coincided with my husband’s 65th birthday, we received a good room upgrade and a little gift that came with a greeting card. The kind gestures were very well appreciated. Our other four friends who had stayed in the same hotel were equally pleased with the hotel and they all slept well and had their clothes properly washed and dried within their own room before their return to home. 5 star to Distinction & Dunedin from all of us.

This hotel was perfect for our 3 day stay in Dunedin. Good dining options and hotel bar. Room was generous in size and comfortable. Only slight issue was a rumbling noise coming from what sounded like large dryers on our floor until around midnight every night.

Lovely room and comfortable but quite dark!
The hotel was well placed in walking distance of bars and restaurants. Hotel also has its own restaurant. Nice staff and clean hotel. Lovely big and comfortable beds with clean bathroom in rooms. Nice kitchenette with complimentary chocs, cookies and milk. We had a one bedroom suite which was quite dark and dingy to be honest. No light over the seating area at all and the window faces other rooms plus even more rooms to the left of you. No light coming in naturally. We like to read not watch tv all night so wish we had a lighter room.
