  Nice place

  08 Jan 2019

  There are great views of Dunedin from this B&B. It is high up on the hill but you can walk down into Dunedin in 15 minutes or so. And then there are plenty of taxis for a $10NZ back up the hill afterwards. It is a beautiful old house with a lovely, helpful hostess. I felt the breakfast could have been better - the egg soufflés were a bit tasteless, but we enjoyed our stay. But note there are lots of stairs up to the house and inside.

  A beautiful, period home

  Loved our spacious room with the stained glass window and comfortable bed. Cally 's suggestions of places to visit were acted upon and thoroughly enjoyed. We managed the walk up from the town - it is good exercise after an evening meal and only takes 20/25 minutes. Breakfast was one of the best of the holiday and we had been spoilt by other hosts. A great stay. Thank you.

  Views of Dunedin and the Harbour from your balcony!

  Hilltop by name , and hill top it was. Reaching it by foot was a great exercise in itself, which one does welcome during a holiday which involves so much good food an drinks!!!Our hosts Cally and Lloyd were so very friendly, kind and helpful and discreet. There was definitely an "artist air" about the place, and a lot of interesting pictures and antique articles, each with a story.After a great breakfast, we'd happily visit places for the whole day, and return to be welcomed by our hosts and invited to share our experiences over a few glasses of wine. And may I point out that in their spare time, both Cally and Lloyd are renovating an interesting old church in Dunedin to provide for their orchestra an acoustically-safe venue for rehearsals, and generally for Dunedin , a historic building accessible to performing artists etc. Admirable and community spirited is how I would like to describe our hosts!

  Historic building

  27 Apr 2016

  Cally was the perfect hostess and suggested restaurants and places to visit. We had a large room on the ground floor with a stained glass window above the bed. Breakfast was very good. Hilltop is an imposing century old house at the top of the High street with great views over Dunedin.

  Historic B&B with very comfortable rooms

  20 Mar 2016

  Cally and Lloyd were perfect hosts and offered good suggestions for places to eat and things to do during our stay. The room was large with a stained glass window over the bed! It was very comfortable. Cally's breakfasts were delicious and set us up for the day. A great place to spend an enjoyable few days.(We stayed from 4-7 January 2016 but only reviewing on our return to the UK.)
