Great place to stay
Great restored town
We have stayed here often . Handy to shops and restaurants. We love the Last Post restaurant.
Nice place to stay, great staff, always very friendly.
Old hotel in need of renovation. I think our bed was from the last renovation of 1961
Just a good place to stay in the middle of town. Nice friendly staff.
Beautiful old hotel. Very quiet. Everything is close. Walked to the penquin exhibit, bought our tickets and returned in the evening to watch the penguins return. No photography allowed during their return. Are at a local restaurant across the street from our hotel. Wonderful stay.
Loved 2 dining areas, meal options, loved vegetable garden
Great location and handy to the shops. Parking was easy withther large car park. Staff were very friendly and helpful an over all great experience.
The place is an old favourite for us and we enjoyed the reconnection after a number of years It was as we remembered.
Renovation extraordinaire
The room was beautifully renovated to a very high standard
Comfortable beds
It was many stairs and as I’m on crutches this was a challenge. Apart from that it was a comfortable room for the night.
Great venue close to where we needed to be great parking
Nice and clean, warm, cosy.
Lovely staff and historic rooms. Great food. Difficult parking.
Great big room.
Vwey nice polite staff friendly atmosphere
Its old world charm excellent service and lovely meals. Will certainly stay again
Beautiful place to stay
I think you should put a sign telling people how to get to reception from the Car Park.
Easy place to stop over . Nice sports bar connected
very convenient to walk around and enjoy the beach, big parking lots.
Good quality staying, friendly staff
Thought it was ok but you could hear cars in carpark and you hear people talking in hall way but other then that was not to bad
Great place to stay
We had a lovely stay. We were warmly welcomed and freaky enjoyed our stay. Thank you.
Suite was excellent, staff were very helpful. Lots of things to do in walking distance.
Central location, close to Harbour Street, great staff and well maintained.
Suited my needs in every way 😁
Excellent frienly staff who care abouy the business
I loved my room, beautiful. Heavy curtains for darkness and really quiet.
charm of yesteryear
Brydone Hotel is in the historic Victorian section of Oamaru. It is within walking distance to the pier and boardwalk. Also within walking distance of shopping. They have a Happy Hour from 4:30-6:30pm. Very cozy restaurant with great coffee and breakfast.
Good value, clean and walking distance to old Oamaru.
Stayed 3/24 for 1 night. Big old grand pub with clean functioning rooms. Had lift to first floor. Helpful staff. Located in town central. Rex W.

Very pleasant place to stay
Disappointing stay at this hotel. Our room, number 10, in the original building, was very small and had a dismal outlook. The car park is at the rear of the hotel, and to take luggage from our car meant a very long walk through multiple communal dining/conference/social areas. The hotel has a faded elegance, and we would not recommend this hotel.
Right in the center walking distance to historic part
Pleassnt stay in a Victorian building.
We had roast of the day; beef. All the elements were cooked to perfection.
historical building in the center of the town.
First class historic hotel
Great welcome beautiful Victorian building well maintained. Very good service for breakfast. Town centre location.
Room was impressive.. !
Huge room and huge bathroom in impressive old building with great staff and services.. Very enjoyable stay..
We loved our stay in this Classic Hotel the rooms are super cool . Great staff. I only wish it was more than one night. Comfy bed. Great shower tons of pressure . Would stay again
Great location and walking distance to town and restaurant's. Unique and lovely old building. No air conditioning in room, had to leave window open all night and traffic was noisy.
Would highly recommend this Hotel to others. Staff were very friendly. No issues with checking in and room was very clean. Look forward to staying again in the future
The bathroom had had a wonderful make over, the bed was super comfortable. The living area has had a pleasing make over,all in all a very pleasant stay
Great atmosphere, Victorian feel in old Victorian town of Oamaru. Close to everything, heart of town. Old school atmosphere, cozy and friendly
Lovely helpful staff and delicious food.
Lovely character hotel with great staff.
Had a nice stay at this hotel. Oamaru is a great wee town and we’ll definitely come back as we didn’t allow enough time on the trip.
I nice stay in a very established hotel which has stood the test of time well
friendly staff
The Junior Suite was a great room and the bed was very comfortable. Had breakfast onsite downstairs and it was lovely with quick service. Would definitely stay again
Lovely old hotel, updated
We wanted to stay in the heritage part of town. The place was quiet, as we expected, but there really wasn't much to ensure a rapid return, unfortunately.
it’s so good place that we was staying and good experience at heritage
Walked in to the lobby and was greated with a warm and friendly smile. Our room was fabulous with a big bed and everything we needed in an oversized room. Food was perfect with a great variety to choose from. All staff were extremely pleasant and nothing was a problem. If I had to critique anything at all would be signage and menu options for your international visitors from the Asian areas in their language. We will happily come back and certainly recommend your beautiful hotel. Regards Lynda and Amanda
Spacious kingbed room. Very comfy bed and bathroom very well appointed. Classic vintage building loveingly restored. Breakfast staff amazing with yum food and the best coffee! Lounge room out of this world with old world charm all decked out with Christmas decorations. Will definitely go back again :)
The property is vintage and you get the feel of being like the 18th century or early 1900s. I like history and that vibe in that hotel made me wonder. The place is near shopping stores so it’s a great location to be.
I was in the old part of the building, which is quite dated. The room was old but spacious with a new and great bathroom. Quite a long walk from the carpark to my room. Leighton on Reception was really pleasant and cooperative. I will certainly stay there again.
We had an old room. Bit tired. Noise from room/s next door was loud during night. Function room smoking area was right below window. Therefore was overpriced for what you got .. especially in Oamaru.
Lovely hotel in prime location
Grand, and well preserved old (Victorian-era) hotel.
Too old. Not easy to access rooms.
Such an awesome hotel if you are looking for character, great meals in-house, friendly staff
They took into account my crook hip and got me a room by the lifts, and made sure my motorbike was safe. Amazing place!
It was very noisy and room was above a sports bar, plus guests were very noisy at night and in the morning. Lack of sleep due to the noise will not be going again and would not recommend if I could get our money would be good but I can not see that happening thanks for your inquiry Steve Joy
Thanks
Always a fantastic stay here
Always a fantastic stay at the Bryson, right in the centre of town, handy to all amenities.
Good hotel
Great location for walking everywhere. Warm room, good shower pressure, clean room. Only complaint was when at weekend there were loud music from the bar with music that can be heard from our room. Could also hear people chatting outside the room but overall it suits our purposes.
Happy
Great old pub and great location
.
The character and the vibe :)
Nice Hotel with amazing ambience.
The place was nice. Very old
Able to walk to all the venues
Very happy with everything
We are very satisfied.
Had a amazing room and was better than expected one of the best rooms we have stayed in
A nice value option in the center of Oamaru.
A good value option with an excellent location. Pro's: Location, Value and the in house restaurant was convenient and good. Con's: Small room, Slightly tired decor, TV had limited free-to-air channels, No air-con.
Loved the old style hotel! We had the Juniour Suite and it was great, very spacious, bathroom was fantastic! Comfortable bed, great location very central to everything and it was great having the restaurant downstairs.
Great location in a great town Staff at hotel were exceptionally helpful before and during stay
old staircase
Central to everything allowing for exploration of everything in Oamaru. Dining options were amazing. Loved by guests & locals. I can recommend the Brydone & hope to visit again
Excellent location. Very nice staff. Nice big room. Elevator did not work. Had to bag-drag up the stairs to 2nd floor.
Was clean spacious room. Staff were friendly. Seafood chowder in restaurant was sensational.
Rooms were not terribly sound proof Convenient spot, helpful staff
great stay
Great location Very clean and tidy Enjoyed our stay
Great & friendly staff! Comfy room and a delicious meal for dinner in the restaurant.
Be aware! Booked on expedia, price clearly stated includes extra guest, but they charged another time for extra guest when I checked out, fortunetly I remember the price. that shouldn't happen, so did on purpose? Not everybody can remember the price when they booked. that's a easy way to make extra money Brydone...
Older establishment but undergoing upgrade, warm and friendly staff.
Handy hotel .
We find this hotel very handy to shops ,restaurants and the historical area of Oamaru .Right in the centre of town .Stayed here several times before . A nice touch to be given a couple of vouchers for free drinks .
Amazing service at dinner, friendly and helpful staff
Great location, nice snd tidy rooms. Highly recommend.
Roadtrip Oamaru
Easy and accomodating check-in. (allowed us to check in early). Bar/Cafe was busy, had a drink and later dinner, clearly suffering from shortage of staff (as is everywhere) but staff were friendly and helpful. Great location easy walking distance to many attractions. Would recommend and stay again
Friendly and helpful staff. Super clean and tidy room. Great location. We had a splendid stay!
Really nice old building to stay in
Excellent response to our concern about security for bikes on rack on back of car.
History here
Historic hotel. Bird types seen. Blue penguin viewing as they waddle to their nesting boxes.
Nice friendly place to stay
