"Ideal location in Russell with spacious rooms."

9.0

Great location direct on the waterfront of Russell. Close walking distance to the ferry station, shops, restaurants and points of interest. Clean and spacious rooms.

Unfortunately, the kitchen was not well equipped with only one small pot and one frying pan to cook with.

"A great place to stay in Russell"

10.0

The Commodores Lodge was a clean, comfortable place to stay in Russell with an excellent location right on the waterfront. The bed was comfortable, the room was spacious and very clean, the kitchen facilities were well equipped and the outdoor space was wonderful. The staff were friendly and helpful and I would definitely stay at the Commodores Lodge again when visiting Russell.
