"A delightful heritage hotel so close to the city CBD. A little bit of luxe in Dunedin with quality fittings, comfortable beds and NZ made amenities. Love the nod to its Scottish heritage with a tartan wool blanket on every bed. Also highly recommend in-house dining at The Press Club. The food and service was exceptional."
