The Hostelz.com Review
This is a small and friendly hostel in an old manor house that has seen better days. The rooms are simple and clean, but some of them have poor lighting. The toilets and showers are reasonably clean, but are old and have a musty feel about them. The kitchen is small but adequate. The lounge is nice and cosy and there are plenty of comfortable chairs to sink into and watch a bit of television or choose some videos from the video library. The atmosphere in the lounge and kitchen is very friendly and they are a good place to talk to other travellers.

Manor House is about a ten minute walk from the centre of town. There are helpful notices posted up with activities to do in Dunedin and recommendations for bars, clubs and shopping needs.

The cat was the only nice thing about this place. I was cold and the staff were so full of themselves. It was annoying.

What an ugly place to stay at. I don't recommend anyone stay there; it's dirty, and people don't know how to clean up after themselves. What a bad experience.

For being so close to the city this hostel was very quiet and chilled out. The back garden and converted garage are cool to chill out in. Birds love the trees.

I love this place. I lived at Manor House for about two months. It was cozy and friendly, and a great place to chill out and make friends.
