Not value for money

Very old decor. Old sheets. Hotel smelled of cooking oil. I bit more attention to cleaning would have been good, e.g. the exeplair duct in the bathroom was thick with grime. For this level of room I would have expected to pay $60 - $85, not $105.

Clean sheets, comfortable bed,

Web site is totally out of date. Tried to book online twice, unsuccessful. Tried emailing with booking, only to get a ‘thank you for your email’ response. Tried phoning, no joy. Because the site and comments seemed ‘Heritage’ persevered and booked Xpedia. The hotel is rundown and tired but has the potential to be a great stopping off point enroute to the bike trails and points south. Needs to lift their game with overseas tourism picking up

Big enough room, great modern and clean bathroom, kitchen area needed a good scrub

Things are old, which is fine. But they could be maintained a bit better.

the heritage have been staying here for a number of years very convenient

Hotel was cold and unfriendly. Limited pillows and blankets with no heating. No bar or restaurant. Very unloved building for a Heritage listed building in bad need of a lot of TLC

Three times my food was stolen from the fridge. Not funny when working night shift and get in at 1am expecting to have a warm feed before bed only to find someone had already eaten it dispite having clearly labeled it. Nothing open in Geraldine at that hour!!

Charming

I recommend this traditional country pub. Lovely spacious room. Great bathroom. Friendly staff. Views. Shared balcony. Shared kitchen. I suggest you phone to confirm last minute bookings as the room I booked had been let between booking and when I got there.

No hot water in shower

You definitely get what you pay for here. I went for the cheapest option in their backpacker/hostel selection and ended up staying in a small building out the back, rather than in the main hotel. It was a bit dirty/dusty and I had to sweep the floor myself, but it was a safe place to stay with a lock, comfy bed, and basic utilities. The pub next door was very rowdy at night though. I also didn't interact with staff at all except for when I arrived, which was a little confusing since I didn't know the pub was also the check-in desk. Overall it was fine but I probably wouldn't stay again, not even for the price of being the cheapest room in Geraldine.

We arrived at this hotel to find our booking non-existent, the initial staff member rude & abusive & the building in a run down state - we await a refund from wotif.com

good price for quick stopover. Accessible room/shower for my son was helpful checkin good. Not very clean, fridge dirty, dusty shelves etc. No plug on shelf for appliances. No ventilation. Window would have opened a little above the main street.

No food available

I guess for what we paid it was ok. Typical old style pub accom. Rooms very basic. Jug didn’t work, was replaced. Bathroom could have been cleaner, dust on skirt boards, fan made awful noise, No iron, only saying this as we travelled for a wedding. Asked for a receipt at end and fella didn’t seem to know what I was talking about. Got there in the end.

Clean and tidy, building had character.

Vulgar manager treats customers like rubbish.

Pretty vulgar manager. He wanted to charge us twice because he couldn't find the booking we made through hotels.com. The guy was vulgar with us, swearing and blaming the platform, complaining he didn't receive any money out of it, despite I was showing him the booking and the charges on our bank account. Worse customer experience ever.

Vulgar manager

The manager of that place was rude, vulgar. He wanted to charge us twice because he could not find the booking we made through hotels.com, saying he didn't receive any money from it, despite I was showing him the booking confirmation and the charge on our bank account. Pretty bad experience.

The booking was messed up when lastminute.co.nz didn't forward the payment to the hotel for the booking, which meant I had to pay again when I arrived. It then took me an hour on the phone being passed from person to person on an overseas call centre run by lastminute.co.nz to try to get a refund for the double payment but they told me they don't give refunds, only credits. So now I have a credit. It was made worse because the hotel staff then told lastminute.co.nz that I was a 'no show' at the hotel, even though I had already checked in to my accomodation with them, ie some staff knew what was going on and others didn't, but didn't check their facts. Apart from that, the room was fine, clean etc and I think good value for money for a very basic bed-for-the-night.

it s ok cheap but old.

Liked the check in before 9.unfortunately new managers did not check for bookings online made the day before.so according to them we did not have a booking and they would not check.At 8pm they had a room $22 dearer which we had to pay.bad net tv reception.old food in freezer box.In the padt we had spent extra on food and drink but not this time

Great for cheap accommodation and convenient central location

Not really up to scratch

This stay was not great. It appeared that staff had completely forgotten to clean the bathroom as the previous occupants toiletries were still in evidence on the shower floor. Black mould around the shower. No working light in the bathroom… the list goes on. We wouldn’t stay here again.

Old time pub quite dark, looking past that into accommodation, comfortable clean with an ensuite, no toiletries except hand soap Tea and coffee facilities and a toaster Pleasure to have stayed 😊

First floor Double room was accessed by a well-worn staircase with grubby carpet, upstairs from pub & gaming-room. Room was adequate for our needs. Price is very reasonable. Great location. Have to park car on street. Stayed a Saturday night and was awakened at frequent intervals by drunken revellers on the street below. Wld recommend for a one-night stay.

Old school property. Clean and tidy , friendly staff

Rooms very small, walls very thin.

Probably the best value accommodation I've ever stayed in. Single room is compact which means you can get it nice and toasty on a cool winter night. Bed is comfortable, you get a full-sized fridge, plenty of tea/coffee/hot chocolate, decent sized flat screen TV, good shower in the en-suite and a nice, friendly welcome. Not to mention it's smack in the middle of town for convenience with loads of on-street parking right at the door. Absolutely perfect for the solo traveler.

The people were friendly. Gave us an off street park so our bike were safe. The room was basic but clean, comfortable bed and really warm. The room was serviced on the second day which was unexpected but lovely to have clean towels. Excellent location in the middle of town. Not flash but great value and I would certainly recommend it. We enjoyed our stay

Okay stay, room for improvement

Lady who checked us in was lovely. Room was a good size but there was food left in fridge, one of the hand towels was dirty and a horrible stain on the carpet plus unnecessary clutter in the room. Bed was only a double and lumpy mattress, with queen bed and a tidy up it would be great value

Lovely manager

Comfy room with a comfy bed, overlooking the Main Street. Surprisingly quiet.

Just what we needed on wet windy night. Great food and hospitlity

Surprise package

Very helpful staff at check in sorted things out no worries, comfortable room and sensational burger for dinner. Thanks guys!!

Girls weekend

The staff were all friendly and helpful and the service was great! Our room was spacious with comfortable beds and a fantastic shower! Room is a little dated and definitely in need of new blockout curtains (and a lightbulb!) but very spacious and had everything you needed for a night away. Will definitely stay again in the future! Restaurant had great food too

Lovely old-style hotel with friendly local hospitality, quiet and clean.

Something was going on between wotif and the hotel because they didn't have my reservation. So i got there 19h and there was no room available. Luckily a friend was staying there (which they didn't have the reservation either) and we had to share the room... Wotif you book a room on a hotel and dont have one when you get there? Probably wont be using wotif or this Hotel again.

Good stopping point on our journey, food good, beer cold and room comfortable

Small but functional

The room I booked and stayed in is not actually part of the actual hotel. It is in a separate building next to the hotel. It is similar to a large granny flat with 5-6 small rooms with shared amenities (one for male and one for female). The room was small but functional. Not bad for a short stay. Reception was quite friendly and engaged in good customer service.

No drapes or curtains on windows street lights shining direct into bedroom

The staff were great and very helpful. They made the stay pleasant.

Old school tupe kiwi pub fantastic staff great food and lication ..very basic rooms reglected in the badic price.

Good beds in good location

This is in a great location, kind of like a lodge style above the old hotel. The room was comfy but could have been cleaner! Suit budget style for one or two nights

Very nice clean and tidy room, great price

Very nice little individual bedrooms in a self contained complex with a bathroom just across the hall. Clean tidy and not noisy considering it is at the side of the pub. It was not clear that this was a pay at property and there was a bit of confusion when I turned up as I thought it had been paid for on the card details I entered. Good food in surrounding area

Das Einzelzimmer war für knapp 20Euro in Ordnung. Bett, Fenster, TV... Fertig. Küche hat nur eine Mikrowelle und Wasserkocher, dafür wird aber Instantkaffe und Tee bereitgestellt. Leider wurde Zimmer und allgemeine Räume unzureichend oder seit längeren nicht geputzt und gestaubsaugt. Überall Staub und Dreck. Das Bett war sauber. Bad ging auch, aber keine Seife vorhanden.

Think twice before booking

NIce staff but facility begs for urgent renovations. Unfortunately it seems that nobody pays attention to its cries. If only possible, avoid it and go to other place!
