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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

Web site is totally out of date.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

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.

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.

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!!

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.
