The penguin sanctuary was lovely and we saw penguins during the day in the nests. The evening tour was fully booked so get in early if you want to do that.. The steam punk museum was suitably odd and they were very friendly when we got caught in a downpour and stayed sheltering there while they were closing. Plenty of chance to see seals basking on the foreshore.
The victorian precinct however was just a street - possibly more exciting if you are from New Zealand of Australia but we live in a property older than anything on the street so not really that exciting if you are from the UK or the older cities in the US

A very pleasant surprise, was recommended to stop here by a friend, so glad we did. A quirky place , so much history. The Victorian quarter alone was wonderful. Steampunk also worth a look. Easy to walk around the town too. Ps some hilly streets 😀

This is a hidden gem of a town with unique stone architecture and history. I am biased because I worked here for two months years ago. Be sure to visit the garden and use the pool facilities if you have the time. And to top it off it is close to the Moreike Boulders... a must see.

Love Oamaru - I have family there so go often.
Love Oamaru - I have family there so go often. Always a must is Riverstone just outside oamaru and a castle tour and meal there and the shopping - magnificent. Of consequence there is also.the historic precinct with Miss Purple and Donna de Mente gallery.and don't forget to grab a cronut (croissant/doughnut meld) from harbour st bakery
Cucins has wonderful food and well worth a visit.
What I would like to make booking.comaware of is that it popped up after I had booked that I could pay $x more for a private bathroom.. I had stayed there b4 so wZ aware it would be odd not to have private bathroom. I checked with motel and the bathroom was private - what if I had pushed thst button to pay more ? Likely would be no wiser which sucks really

Steampunk HQ is sensational. As is the Victoria District.
Steampunk HQ is sensational. As is the Victoria District. Great 'whitestone' structures everywhere. ATMs, supermarkets, cafes, take-aways offer a great choice. Penguin parade is sensational. Great arty / souvenir / gift shops in Victoria District. Good little local cinema. Great beaches to walk along. Easy drive to Moeraki Boulders and Elephant Rocks. Easy drive to Dunedin. Friendly pub and cafe staff. A great little town overall - would love to go back.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Vicarage in Oamaru. Our hosts, Jacqui and Niel were very welcoming and helpful. Our room and all the facilities were very comfortable, clean and spacious. The little personal touches and general attention to detail add to the lovely ambience. Great location and on-site parking - everything the town has to offer is within walking distance. Can highly recommend! Thank you for a very pleasant stay :-]
Clean room, it had everything we needed :) kitchen is small but well equipped and bathroom is nice too. There was a functioning new heater and beds were comfy. I especially liked that we could move the double bed, to create a massive triple bed so that our baby doesn't fall off her bed :D (of course, we moved everything back to original position when leaving). It is walking distance to town (even though we drove). Oamaru is great <3
Conveniently located motel, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The rooms are very large, so it’s nice to spread out a bit. Also, they give you real milk for your tea and coffee - very exciting!
The location is very convenient for the historic centre of Oamaru. Just a short walk/drive down the road.
Perfect location. Handy to everything as long as you have transport. Nice room. We had a view of the hill behind Oamaru so the afternoon sun streamed in keeping it warm during the day. VERY good price for a holiday weekend. We wanted to come back but it was booked out. Highly recommend this motel.
Warm, friendly reception to a cozy, comfortable hotel with unique motifs in every room and commons area. Very nice breakfast with good hot coffee in a clean, comfortable nook. A very welcome break from your standard hotels! The Poshtel is a gem!
Great room in a lovely clean well-maintained historic backpackers in a great location at the centre of Oamaru. Kitchens and bathrooms all clean and good secure space in basement for bikes. And run by lovely friendly people.
The location was right in the middle of the small town. You could walk everywhere. Our main purpose of stopping by Oamaru was to see the penguins so the hotel location was convenient for us. Clean and tidy but a bit pricey.
We had a little time to discover what Oamaru has to offer, but being in a walking distance from the "CBD" was a bonus. Nothing outstanding in the room. Generally clean and acceptable.
The Manager of the motel!
Very friendly and courteous and very helpful.
The room was above expectations and at a very competitive rate, we both really enjoyed our stay here
