This historic hotel is a treasure with beautiful landscaping and overflowing with flowers. The restaurant serves a big spectrum of food and drinks and the staff was extremely helpful and friendly and did everything they could to be accommodating. The room was tight but was cozy and the bed very comfortable. The bathroom was huge and the towels wonderful. However it took a while for the water to get hot. This was one of our best stays in our 2 week visit of NZ and would love to return.

Love this hotel. First time we’ve stayed rather than visited for an afternoon. Highlight, apart from the gorgeous garden bar, is the food. Consistent quality. Rated every meal. Only thing I would love to see changed is having a breakfast service for in house guests rather than guests needing to order through at the bar. Coffee is also excellent.

The cottage gardens were a delight and an oasis and the pub staff were very nice. We had booked a family room for 4 of us which was located on the ground floor. The beds were clean and comfortable, the walls very thin and people above us walking could be heard. There was no microwave or fridge in the room (the only accomodation in our entire travels through NZ) not to have it, which was disappointing as we had bought cheese to take back home. When I asked they said they are a hotel and hence these facilities are not there… that was a real surprise. Milk provided was inadequate and we had to ask a couple of times for milk just to make 2 cups of tea a day. The showers were great however a curtain around the shower would be useful as the toilet and floor around the toilet was soaking wet each time we used the shower. Wifi was hit and miss. The hotel has a charming look and feel to it but I don’t think I would stay there again as it did not suit our type of travelling.

Absolutely loved our stay in the villa! The space is large, clean and modern - perfect for a family. Loved seeing the historical hotel/pub and dining at the restaurant. Also easy access to Wānaka and Queenstown.

Hubby and I stayed one night in Mid November 2024. Such a beautiful place to stay. Rooms are older but very comfortable. Not far from Wanaka or Queenstown. Price for the night was very reasonable and I would highly recommend staying here.
