The location was very good as I could walk to the Intercity bus stop with a full size suitcase on wheels. The city shopping centre, supermarket and local buses were in easy walking distance, as was the Chinese garden. I was very fortunate to have room 104. It was such a pleasure to look out on large trees and not the backs old buildings and have traffice noise. It was good to have an en suite bathroom, teamaking quipment and TV.

The lift!!! Even without a suitcase I had to be very agile to get in and out quickly enough. With a suitcase it was worse. wondered

The hotel was exceptionally convenient, just a 6-minute walk to the New World supermarket and offering free on-site parking. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, providing a relaxing stay. The property also features a well-equipped kitchen, allowing guests to cook their own meals. Additionally, the staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to assist, making the overall experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

The location is great. Not too central and therefore more quiet but still in walking distance to the Octagon and major breweries. Close to the train station which is handy if you're going to the market on Saturday. Our room faced the inner courtyard so it was nice and quiet. Lovely old and original setting. Some things could do with a bit of an upgrade. We enjoyed the lounge in the corner on the first floor looking out onto the street, super classy.

The beds could have been a bit more comfortable, otherwise things were okay.

Hotel looks a bit tired from the outside but is well cared for on the inside.The woodwork is beautiful as are the ornate ceilings. Staff are friendly, knowledgable and helpful eg there wasn't a hairdryer in the room but when I asked at reception I was provided with one to use for my stay. The hotel has a carpark for guests which is very helpful in the middle of a city. Showers and beds both faultless.

Don't have anything bad to say and have already booked to stay again. Great value for money.

The place is retro but in a old school cool kinda way. The staff are so helpful ans welcoming. Room was big enough to walk around the bed which was very comfortable with extra pillows and blankets. The location is also perfect just a very short walk from the octagon.

There is no heating in the room however there is an electric blanket. It's really noisy both for people walking the corridors and the cars outside but earplugs would have fixed that. Main thing I didn't like is there is no cloths storage space. 1 hook on the back of the door so I used the chair as a cloths horse.

Location was very close to the sports venue. Room was adequate, we put the top bunk mattress on the floor for my other daughter as she was confident that the bed would be ok up on the top bunk. It worked better for her having this on the floor. The free parking across the road was excellent. Loved that they had a separate kitchen for us to use so we didnt need to go out and have dinner elsewhere. The room service each day was so welcomed and appreciated. The staff very helpful.

The kitchen facilities had little to no cutlery, otherwise everything else was pretty good in there.

The location is great and the free parking is much appreciated. You can walk to the centre of town very easily from the hotel. The building itself has so much character and is fun to explore, I especially liked the ceiling of the breakfast room and also the photos on the walls. There is a lovely lounge at the "pointy" end of the building. My room had a nice view and a very comfortable bed.

The room was quite small and there weren't a lot of places to put your clothes, but for a short stay that wasn't a big issue for me.

The Leviathan Hotel is associated with the history of men who love men in Dunedin; that was my main reason for staying; to associate with part of our history. It was beautiful inside, and really felt like stepping into the past; I could imagine coming in off the train with my suitcase and lugging it up the stairs (they have an elevator, now, too). The have breakfast provided on the ground floor, which is communal, and they have a gorgeous old-style common space on the first storey in the front angle. Would love to stay there again, especially as I missed out on breakfast because I had to attend hospital! Also, free spacious parking is SUCH a blessing in Dunedin, where you can walk or bus most places.

Some mild light pollution coming through curtains in my room (Leviathan is between two main roads); if a light sleeper, consider a face mask.

The location was fantastic, the room was basic but had everything we needed. If we stay again we will request a room away from busy street side. The shower pressure was fantastic and very welcoming after a busy day traveling.

The parking on a very busy corner could be a safety concern for families with young children and the lift closed too quickly although they did have warnings on wall where the lift was.

Excellent location right next door to train station & the Toitu Settler's Museum, easy walking distance to main food streets. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Rooms are clean and decent sized. There is a laundry & small kitchen (not used on this stay)

Protip: this is an old building next to the main road - if you have trouble with noise and sleeping, this could be an issue as road traffic noise is quite easily heard even with windows shut. Fortunately, Dunedin isn't prone to traffic jams!
