Poshtel

Hotel in Oamaru

Featuring a shared lounge, bar and views of city, Poshtel is located in Oamaru, 23 miles from Moeraki Boulders. The property has luggage storage space and free WiFi throughout the property. we had an apartment with a separate entry and it was awesome. The character of the place was great, having kept the vault door in the bedroom made it really unique. The decor in the lobby and the historical artefacts of Oamaru was really interesting. The breakfast concept also suited us very well. All in all, it’s a very well designed boutique hotel with very nice and attentive staff. Definitely worth the stop.
