I love old pubs like this. If you're after the latest beds, double glazing, spacious bathrooms, massive TVs, etc then this place ain't for you. But having said all that, it does have what you need. A clean room, comfortable bed, an ensuite bathroom, great views (from my room anyway), friendly staff and a restaurant and bar downstairs. Free parking... More

After a long drive in need of a stop over we stopped at THE LAW COURTS unaware that if you are staying here you need an internal room so that you don't suffer from the noise.. We were on the 3rd floor all night the pedestrian crossing beeped ,cars roared past and people seem to shout in the streets. We... More

We were late into town, and did not see one hotel or motel when driving from the south. we chose this somewhat reluctantly, but our choice was limited. Night receptionist was pleasant and helpful. Room was clean, and good hot water. No fridge or other facilities. bed was small but adequate breakfast staff were non existent, so went elsewhere. Not... More

We stayed at the Law Courts for 7 nights. After the first night we checked out other hotels but all were fully booked. The first 2 nights were extremely noisy with traffic. The third night was a Friday and all the students were out on the street. We had loud music,car horns and shouting until after midnight. After that it... More

Upon arriving in Dunedin I had an accomodation guide which was usefull and good advice on all occasions bar this one. We arrived in The Law Courts Hotel around 8pm and asked for a double room which came to $99. I was quite shocked at the totally out of date by about 50 yearsness of the place and I had... More

The Law Courts Hotel is a beautiful building with it's own bar and restaurant and car park and very fairly priced. We had booked a double ensuite room which was on the top floor (3rd). Our room was big and we had the most enormous bed that I have ever slept in and another single bed in the corner (which... More

Even though it was a year ago i stayed in this hotel i feel compelled to write a review after reading what the reviewer who stayed in the Scenic Circle hotel said. As a single traveller i was quoted 89 british pounds for a room at the Scenic Circle, as opposed to only 20 bp (60 nz dollars) at the... More

We drove up to this hotel and asked to view a room to stay at for two nights. We were shown what is probably the nicest room in the hotel, with a king size bed. Rate was $99 per night for the room including cooked breakfast for the two. This hotel is in a great location, easy walking distance to... More

We spent one night at this hotel the first part of December and found it vastly overpriced for the condition of the room we were in - old carpet, old bathroom, wallpaper peeling off the walls, etc. The only thing going for it is the downtown location. We ended up moving to the Scenic Circle Hotel nearby at a much... More
