By far and away the best hotel in Timaru, that said I’m slightly biased as a big part of my childhood involved the Grosvenor… rooms are big and modern, don’t be fooled by the old school exterior, it just adds to the charm. Someone has had great fun with the artworks, the restaurant and staff are first class… better than the Hilton in Queenstown. Don’t look any further, highly recommended

Great location. i was looking for something central with traditional charm - the hotel in its heyday must have really been something. Today, it's a much faded shadow, in desperate need of renovation, at least some paint on the internal doors and walls. There are obvious signs of some updates, such as the mishmash of interior design, like the Mondrian color blocks against the traditional old-worldly woodwork. A work in progress that has potential to develop.

Stayed in one of the new suites. Was just beautiful, comfy bed, great views from the windows. Cool old school elevator. Only little irritation was the cleaning crew started quite early and the doors slammed after each room which was very disrupting in the morning. Staff were friendly

Noise noticeable between rooms and especially in hallways from within our room. The old lift is a classic!

Loved the age of the property and that the owners are working to restore the outside to its former glory! The three staff members I encountered were exemplary! The hotel is so lucky to have them.

We liked everything. The newly finished room we were in was quiet, comfortable and served all our requirements.
