Hotel a Glenavy

“The Manager was very obliging. I have allergy problems, he aired our pre booked room and ensured there was NO artificial sprays applied to the room. Parking was great. Presentation excellent. A note here: The boundary fence by the laundry is pretty dilapidated. The area surrounding the washing line is in need of love and attention, i.e. weeding etc., as does the back boundary. Other than that a very welcoming place. Not noisy even though the Motel is located on the main road. Thank you...

“This beautifully themed boutique hotel was a tremendously great find. Each meticulously clean room had a unique theme. The rest of the hotel follows along with the towns steampunk theme additionally outfitted in a Christmas decor. Staff was super helpful and friendly. A great stay.”

“Units are nicely decorated, beds comfortable and everything provided for an enjoyable stay. Traffic noise is very noticeable at night so request a rear unit fartherest from the road. ”

“Cleaning was great, staff very friendly and obliging”

“I had a wonderful stay at Pen-y-bryn Lodge. The property is a beautiful historic building with a peaceful atmosphere, and the room was spacious, spotless, and full of character. The hosts were extremely friendly and welcoming, making the stay feel warm and personal. Overall, a fantastic experience — I would highly recommend this lodge to anyone visiting Oamaru.”

“Our stay at Casa Nova House in Oamaru was exceptional. Brenda was an incredible host—warm, welcoming, and attentive in a way that made us feel genuinely cared for. The room itself was beautifully designed, with thoughtful details throughout and a sense of calm that immediately put us at ease. And the bed… easily the most comfortable bed we’ve ever slept in. We left feeling rested, delighted, and so grateful for the experience. Casa Nova House is a true gem, and we can’t wait to return.”
