Ascot Park Hotel

Big thanks to the gentleman who checked us in, Victor. Great service! Very friendly yet concise enough that it didn't slow us down. Gave us all the information we needed and the keys in about 4 minutes. Yet we didn't feel rushed. Very helpful also I need to make a special mention of the entire restaurant team! I know how hard it is to not only staff but run a decent dining venue during these strange times, but this team really held it together very well. Great food and even better service. You could see the team basically running to do their jobs yet we didn't feel rushed at all. Very knowledgeable matre'd who knew the wine list Very well, offering some great advice and matches. I highly recommend this hotel and all of its facilities. The team are doing a fantastic job and need to be commended for all their efforts. Don't forget to tip!!!!

After Google searching various hotels in Invercargill, Ascot Park Hotel seemed to be the best option and very reasonably priced. I wasn't sure what to expect, since I knew Invercargill was a small town and never been there before. Although the hotel is on the outskirts of the city, it's only a short drive to the city centre, and I was very pleasantly surprised and impressed. The hotel grounds are huge and well-suited to work conferences or functions. Parking was right outside our king bed room. The exterior of the hotel is very unassuming, but we were very impressed with a very large king bed room. Not sure if all the rooms in the hotel have been renovated, but we got, what looked like, a fairly newly renovated room and beautiful big modern tiled bathroom. So nice for a hotel room to have a renovated modern bathroom - makes all the difference. The bed was very comfortable, the room was warm and no problem with noise although I did request a room away from the bar & reception area. Had dinner at Emberz bar/restaurant, which had basic bar type food but still good. The function room was huge and looked very impressive for a party or wedding and I saw the gym facilities too, which looked good. The reception staff were friendly. The highlight for us was when we ordered toffee pudding as room service - it was divine and probably the best one I've ever had! Highly recommend the hotel.

Beautifully decorated room with generous shower. Queen beds comfortable and spaced well apart. Staff friendly and helpful. Toffee pudding super delicious. My only concern is a health and safety issue as the steps to car park are quite narrow.

Stayed here for 3 nights in the motel block. Very old but clean. The reason for the low review is the sound insulation or lack thereof. I could hear every word the people on unit 21 were saying. Even kept me up with his snoring on night one. On second night they had an argument at like 1am. After yelling “shut up” several times I was at the end of my tether. Contemplated going to their door and having a go at Mr X. Thought better of it as I didn’t want things to get out of hand and me end up in the watch house. Rang reception and they guy came and told them to go to bed. Yes I also heard that conversation. Overall, seems the main hotel is good given the reviews, bars/food etc are good. Just avoid the motels unless you have ear plugs. Def not worth $162 per night.

Good sized room, with lounge and dining/kitchenette Couple of points to the negative being that there was a used towel still hanging on the back of the bathroom door and the main bed could be larger as there is space, double beds just don't make the grade anymore. Overall, and despite the above negative points, this is a good spot to stay, and I'd stay again if in Invercargill

Thank you Ascot for the wonderful stay and outstanding service. My experience was perfect the minute I was checked in by the lovely girls on reception. The room was gorgeous, clean and quite posh! A special thanks to Ryan, the On-site Weekend Manager. He was always available for my many requests when setting up the Hospice Southland Fundraiser. A fine young man. Barbara Miles Two Blonde Bobs

Thank You Ascott Park Place! I really had a great time visiting my friend in Dubai because I stayed here! Everything was a top notch! From rooms, views, bathrooms, beds, cleanliness, and of course customer service! I felt safe and at home while staying here. I wanna thank all your staff for being so nice and helpful throughout my stay there. I will definitely stay at Ascott when I visit my friends again!

Pretty funny experience, checked in told our room was 104 and circled on map. Key card pocket had room 92. Went to 104 key didn't work so house keeping let us in, and took our key to sort it out. Found our room was 103 we were in the wrong room. Phew so relaxing, looked down and found a large rolled up mens sock in the bedroom, back of toilet by wall was not cleaned for awhile, mmm. Black bits coming out of the spa jets. The restaurant was awesome, loved our meals. Will definitely go back. Just a funny sequence of events. ..

The room was lovely and clean. Heaps of parking. Great value breakfast and friendly service. Thank you.Rooms: 5/5

Always come back here as there are good sized rooms, plenty of parking especially when I have a trailor. Just a shame the restaurant was closed as they were short of staff but the bar meal was more than adequate. Rooms: Aircon and roomy
