Mosgiel Regency Motel — Hotel in South Island

What a little gem we found at the last minute.

We were welcomed to leave our luggage early in reception and went for a quick meal at the pub, only a few minutes walk up the road. Woolworths is directly across the road, grog shop next to the pub, Chinese restaurant that serve the biggest meals we have ever come across and at a great price and all within such close proximity.

Bronwyn's dog does have some mental issues, such as separation anxiety and was stealing her folding off the table to get her attention as she was serving us. All in all, a very funny experience.

The unit was clean as a whistle; had everything we needed to relax prior to our flights back home to OZ the following morning. It was toasty warm when we opened the front door, and the bed was heaven with absolutely no noise from the road. Although it was raining when we arrived, when it eventually cleared, the unit was drenched with sun.

Whilst we did not drink the milk in the fridge, I can't remember the last time we were given "real" milk for coffee and tea.

Wi-fi worked perfectly, and all units are located on the ground floor, making it perfect for us oldies who struggle with stairs.

To top it off, the price was so reasonable, we felt guilty, but to make up for it, gave them enough Chinese leftovers for a week of meals.

Thanks Bronwyn for having us...

A great clean hotel that was fantastic for a one night stay. Good price and good size room. We left some clothes in the room and the owner called us to the next day to inform us which was great. However on arrival to pick the clothes up we were accused of burning a hole in one of their bed spreads. They showed me the burn and it looked like a cigarette burn. None of the five people who stayed the night in the unit smoke. We were accused of causing the damage and I couldnt convince them otherwise that it wasnt us which ended a nice stay with an unfortunate end. They claimed that the outdoor ash tray thing was full however we dont smoke. The owners were adamant it was us as they had made up the unit themselves the day before and would of seen the hole when they made the room up. But unfortunately that's not the case as the damage must have been there beforehand and someone either hadnt cleaned the ash tray thing or someone sat outside our unit last night while we were out. We were at a 40yo and 70yo birthday most of the night. Very frustrating not being able to tell them it wasnt us as they didnt want to believe it. Shame and a bad end to otherwise a great stay. Wont be...

I saw it as/in passing to go to Salvation Army opportunity shop in Mosgiel. Two opp shops at least here. Wanted a place to stay the night, but could've ventured back home. Drove back after visiting Mosgiel's opp shops. Also getting sushi lunch there. Drove up, met reception, had a look at the room available, asked the price, then said "I'll take it." Later upon my return, I settled in and can report well worth staying. The room reaches my expectations, even the jug was clean, some places jug has rust inside!

Thank you to Regency Motels Mosgiel.

(In closing, HeHe, I often wonder with these reviews, what it would be like, if the host was to write a review about---ME!? And other guests report of me, same. Maybe Neighbours of my unit might be writing noisy night, as neighbour was snoring, other than that, the resort was...
