Independent in Upper Junction from NZ$119

"Location "

"Liked the property fine but felt the lighting in the room very dim on an overcast day."

"Great all round"

"nice rooms friendly staff"

"It was very convenient to al of the shops and services. Staff were very helpful. The hotel facilities like bar and restaurant looked great but not well patronised so we had to go to local restaurant for food. "

"Wonderful accommodation for the 4 of us (2 adults and 2 children) and prime location very close to St Kilda’s and St Clair’s beaches. Excellent everything :)"

"Staying in the Castle Lodge was great as was dinner in the Castle "

"Great place and spacious room. Clean and tidy"

"I loved my upstairs room with a view. Clean, spacious, tidy and the bed was so comfy. The best thing about this hotel is that it is pet friendly and I have two indoor-only, well-trained cats. Unfortunately, I had some young and unruly partying guests late at night in the room next door, however, the hotel management sorted them out immediately upon notification and peace was restored. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to be close to a convenient main road, and within walking distance of the Botanic Gardens, university, museum, shops cafes, restaurants and the main street of town. I strolled safely up to the scenic Octagon at night for a lovely dinner - lots of options."
