Alcala Motel

4.1(303 reviews)

About

Alcala Motel in South Island sits at 704 George Street, Dunedin North, Dunedin 9016, New Zealand, placing it within Dunedin's student quarter and a short walk from the city's main campus. The motel serves travellers who want a base in Dunedin rather than a resort-style stay.

Guests booking here join a property that has drawn 303 reviews and holds a 4.1 out of 5 average, a record built on repeat custom from people passing through Dunedin. The motel's own site, http://www.alcalamotorlodge.co.nz/, carries its booking arrangements. Dunedin sits on the east coast of South Island, with Queenstown, Christchurch, Nelson, Blenheim, Wanaka, Te Anau and Kaikoura all reachable on the island's road network.

Rooms are arranged around the George Street frontage, and the motel operates as a motor lodge with parking attached to the units. Visitors arriving by car can pull in directly, and the location keeps the city centre, the university and the harbour within easy reach.

Summer runs from December to February, the reverse of the northern hemisphere, so the warmest months fall at the end of the year. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so place names such as Dunedin and Kaikoura carry Māori roots. Rugby union is followed closely nationwide, and the national team plays in black, so a match weekend can fill the city's bars. Small earthquakes are common because the country sits on the boundary of the Pacific and Australian tectonic plates.
