Oh goodness- thanks for your lovely comments. WE are so glad that you found our units clean and tidy- and enjoyed our hospitality! Hope to see you another time :-)
Molly & the team were super accommodating and lovely to meet. Always wonderful to chat to and super helpful. My 1 year old son and I travelled alone and her and their trainee kindly helped me with luggage and settling in. This is my first time in Dunedin and what a delight it was staying here. Staff are amazing. Family friendly; clean, warm and close to shops in walking distance. Definitely recommend and will definitely be staying here again. Thank you Alexis team for making our trip that more enjoyable.

Thank you Jessie! What is better than grabbing an ice cream from Rob Roy's Dairy just down the road? And having all that Dunedin has to offer at the tip of your fingertips? It's wonderful that you enjoyed your stay with us and felt welcomed by our lovely team
Great stay at Alexis Motor Lodge. The accommodation was very good and had everything you would need. One of the cleanest motel rooms I’ve ever stayed in. Location was excellent to explore Dunedin. Had one of the rooms at the back of the motel and it was quiet. Robyn and staff were very helpful and made it a great stay. Would definitely stay there again.

Thank you Gene! Yes- the close distance to everything makes travelling as a family a breeze :-) We're happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us!
An interesting side of hill site for the car park which added a few challenges getting out of the hire car on the top side, but it is in Dunedin! Service was excellent with a smile and we felt like it was home from home for the graduation celebration in town.

Upstairs clearly had a Friday gathering which lead to visitors leaving and quieting down at 5am.
Tidy motel and obliging hosts:

Early July 2023. Some major roadworks going on outside. Made it a bit difficult to access. Apparently it's been going on for a while. When the roadworks are finished, Alexis will be even better.

Always my go-to accommodation of choice in Dunedin, The Alexis never disappoints. It is reasonably priced, has good parking, is fairly quiet and unbelievably handy to town. What more could you want? Thank you.

Delighted to receive your lovely positive feedback Michael! I will pass your comments on to our staff re cleanliness, - as they do try really hard to "get it right." Yes- we are an awesome location for city centre University, food good coffee etc etc :-) Thanks for taking the time to share your experience :-)
The property was in a perfect location for our stay - walking distance to bars and restaurants and the Forsyth Barr stadium. Robyn’s communication prior to check in was excellent - advising of the current road works nearby and directions to the property and parking. The road works didn’t affect our stay at all. All staff we came into contact with were helpful and polite and nothing was a problem - we asked for a couple of extra towels and sheets and this was seen to immediately. Would recommend if you are looking for budget friendly, clean friendly city centre accommodation.

Oh.... thank you so much Kerry- we try so hard to "get it right" for our visitors, and it was a thrill to see you acknowledge this.... some guest, can only find the faults... which is upsetting, so we are thrilled that we "ticked all the boxes" for you :-) Very Sincerely Robyn
Lovely property, spacious, great location and wonderful hosts
