Oamaru is a vibrant little town with a lot activities plus the the little penguins getting around is very easy , I go often to Oamaru to visit friends eat at the start and garter, the theatre and art scene is nice.MartineNew Zealand - 10Scored 10

It's a really cool town, the victorian precinct is amazing and you can spend hours just walking and admiring the buildings. There's a farmers market on Sundays and a lovely train that departs from the front to Steampunk museum to the penguin colony. It's a short but beautiful ride. There are sea lions and seals everywhere and it's guaranteed you'll take nice pictures from them 😉

We loved Oamaru.
We loved Oamaru. It was a beautiful little town with stunning architecture and things to do. We enjoyed the steam punk HQ and the museums available to celebrate the towns heritage. Plenty of cafes and restaurants available and good quality food/ beverages.Parry - 8.0Scored 8.0

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 USLesleyUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

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.MarkUnited States of America

- From $88.71 per night8.7Scored 8.7ExcellentRated excellent· 908 reviewsWe were delighted when we stepped into the room. It was very, very nice. Everything was well maintained and very clean. The beds were comfortable. There were 3 extra pillows, extra blanket, iron and ironing board, lots of hangers, hair dryer and the kitchen was well stocked with plates, cups, pans etc. There was a lot of room for our family of 4 adults. The motel staff / owner was very friendly and very accommodating. We would definitely stay there again the next time we are in Oamaru.
mcivorNew Zealand - From $78.06 per night7.7Scored 7.7GoodRated good· 1,154 reviewsClean 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
NinaCroatia - From $112.37 per night8.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 591 reviewsThe layout was perfect for our family with separate bedroom and living room sleeping area. Easy and friendly check in. Slept great on comfortable bed. While nothing jumps out about the motel it delivered more than expected! Also Oamuru turned out to be the hidden gem of our trip! Super interesting town!
RicardaCanada - From $127.15 per night9.0Scored 9.0WonderfulRated wonderful· 1,091 reviewsThe location of this hotel was perfect. It was a cozy stay with all the amenities. Breakfast is a continental affair. so if you need eggs and meat, you'll need another option. But there were crumpets, bagels, great bread, yogurt, fruit, cereal, etc. We had more than enough to get us through until dinner!
JanUnited States of America - From $131.73 per night8.1Scored 8.1Very GoodRated very good· 1,071 reviewsLove these old Hotels, but was a bit apprehensive when we arrived, in the midst of a hot summer, as there's no Air Con. In saying that, the window & breeze was fine and we had a great nights sleep - the beds were super comfy Also a great spot for a leisurely walk around ot the Blue Penguin colony.RichardNew Zealand

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.LeanneNew Zealand
