Already occupying a much-loved heritage building in Dunedin, Wains Hotel is set to relaunch as a 5 star boutique hotel in late 2018, revealing an opulence and standard not seen in Dunedin.
Wains Hotel is situated at 310 Princess Street and dates from 1862. As the oldest hotel in Dunedin, it is a heritage building steeped in history. She is a grand old dame with quirks and personality. Located perfectly in the CBD to take advantage of Dunedin’s business district and retail shops, all of which are key features for Corporates and Leisure visitors to Dunedin.
With its blend of solid stone, extravagant carvings and luxurious materials, the hotel is sure to impress on arrival. The revamped Wains Hotel will cater for those looking for the ultimate in boutique hotel
experiences. An investment of over $3 million will be spent on the refurbishment covering all areas of the hotel.
Guests will feel enveloped in warm, classic luxury within the 50 guestrooms over seven levels of the hotel. Its design has embraced not only the history of the hotel but also the early culture of the city and its Scottish links and the gold rush era of the 1800’s. Guest rooms and public spaces will boast rich materials, tones and soft luxury fabrics. These paired with a unique personalised style of customer service will ensure the boutique hotel offers comfort, contentment and a feeling of wellbeing.
The completed hotel will also include a restaurant, bar, gym and meeting facilities. Refurbishment is due to be completed by late 2018.
Wains Hotel General Manager Sally Reiber says “This is extremely exciting news for Wains Hotel and Dunedin City. This boutique level of hotel product has been long awaited, and we look forward to welcoming our guests to the refurbished hotel later this year”.
