My husband and I enjoyed a magnificent meal in Parcels Restaurant last night. Use of the quiet Vault Room, Wenting's friendly professional service and excellent food made an exception dining experience.

We had almost finished cycling the Rail Trail and my wife came off her bike and needed to be ambulanced to Dunedin Hospital. Fortunately she was able to be seen within hours and come out of hospital. But she was in pain and really wanted some comfort to ease her discomfort. We were meant to turn up after 3pm, but I arrived 3 hours early due to the accident. I had my wife's blood stained coat and all our stuff. I explained the situation and was provided a room with a washing machine and drier. We were both grateful for the ease with which The Distinction made things comfortable and easy to come through the distress of the morning. The bed was the most comfortable of the 7 we slept in during our trip and the staff were so very helpful.

Hello Sheree, Thank you for taking the time to write your 5 Star review. The Romantic Getaway is an excellent package to experience what Distinction Dunedin has to offer.

Its awesome when you make a booking for a holiday, and have reasonable expectations, however, when that place exceeds your expectations it makes your stay so much more enjoyable. From the washing machine & dryer in the studio unit, the generous selection of bathroom accessories (sewing kit, shaving kit, toothbrush, etc) the larger than normal studio room sizes, and the luxurious bedding, nothing about this place disappointed
