The Dunedin Star is about as basic as you can get without being an outright dormitory. The rooms, beds, and decor are basic. The bathroom is utilitarian. Not even a shade on the lights, just the bulbs. That said, it is clean and centrally located. We stayed as part of a package tour and had no choice in the matter.... More

Our stay here was a pleasant one. Very central to the city centre and restuarants. Lovely clean room, small but efficient bathroom and pleasant dining room with a good hot breakfast. More

Yep, there has to be one that's just not right up there.....and this one is it! It seemed dark and a bit dingy..........the showers were a litle dangerous as 2 people in our group had falls because of this.

We stayed at Dunedin Star during a visit to Namibia. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The service at reception was good and we enjoyed the breakfast in a big, open dining room. The waiters were very helpful and we enjoyed the cooked breakfast as well as the cold breakfast. The staff were very helpful at all times. The parking... More

We found the place dark, gloomy and unwelcoming. The rooms are sparse and dark with limited space, the common areas are also limited. Free internet is good there when it is working. More
