The hotel looks great from outside(as pictures show), but actually inside the building was old and tired. Our room had very old carpet and everything was old. The walls were thin and we heard people talking from the next room. It seemed that the management had decided to invest in making them look good rather than giving comfort to their guests. We were disappointed. Their sports bar's food was great.

The bed was super comfy and big, staff were lovely and the whole hotel was really clean. I would've rated it higher had there been air conditioning in our room, a better breakfast menu (2 items on menu) that wasn't so expensive and if the shower had better water pressure. But overall it was a pleasant stay

Lovely four nights at the Kelvin, room perfectly adequate for me and good to find accommodation which is not hugely expensive. The only complaint I would note is that people seem to think it ok to slam doors! Otherwise all good and I would stay there again.

Great place to stay. Super local. Good bar. Slight issue with TV which was fixed as best it could be by friendly staff. We were located on level 6 which was quite hot but fans were provided which did the trick.

I like an easy life and don't do a lot of travelling - Kelvin Hotel and staff made our trip south hassle free very much appreciated. Note - would have loved a paper map that showed places of interest - didn't find one anywhere in Invercargill - Mr Google didn't have a big enough screen hahaha Thank you Kelvin Hotel and staff

Fantastic hotel. Check-in was easy. Parking was a few blocks away. There is a nice mall just about next door to the hotel. Sports bar has a nice menu of appetizers and full lunch and dinner items. Laundry was a plus.
