Nice “old style” resort hotel, near the lake and all restaurants and bars. Friendly staff, good parking, updated bathroom, good size room and balcony. Not sure why it’s only a 3 star, way better than some 4 star hotels.

Great location right above the city center, all the restaurants are within walking distance and even one of the wineries (the Maude winery) was right behind the corner, so we paid it a visit. The lady at the reception was very friendly and overall super helpful. The room was very clean, the kitchen well equipped and the A/C was a great addition (apparently you can’t find it in every hotel in NZ). We only stayed for one night, but it would be perfect for a longer vacation. It it also very calm and I can imaging that it’s quite kids friendly.

    Wanaka is a great little town.

    Wanaka is a great little town. Primarily a stepping stone to the ski resorts. However we did not go the the resorts. We did do a day trip to Blue Pools and the nearby waterfalls (Thunder falls). the drive was scenic and the pools were well worth having a look at. Thunderfalls is certainly a photo spot as well. We circled back to wanaka and had a look at the Wanaka tree. Its a great picture just prior to sunset as the branches of the tree have and orangy color to them.

    Wanaka is a beautiful place, the magnificent scenery , ease to get around and the variety of food options makes it a place to meet a variety of experiences. Cycling along the tracks looked like a exciting option for getting around. Puzzling World was a great family outing and is worth a visit. The illusion rooms are fun and the maze was a great fun challenge.

    Wanaka is stunning.

    Wanaka is stunning. We were there in Autumn and with the leaves changing colour it made for amazing photos. A visit to the Lake Wanaka for the world most photograph tree is a must. Puzzle World is fun and worth the visit. The Wanaka Lavender farm was beautiful and the farm animals is a plus.

    Has come of age in recent years.

    Has come of age in recent years. For older NZ’ers it offers a much more relaxed experience than nearby Queenstown and still has plenty to see and do. The approach from the West Coast through Mt Aspiring reserve can only be described as spectacular. In the fine weather exit over the Crown Range via Cardrona also fits this category.

    Beautiful lake view, the balcony and the star gazing at night. Comfortable beds, clean hotel room. Heater was left on arrival, the girls appreciate the chocolates. The restaurant meals were delicious and good quality, great customer service and we got free drink vouchers.We appreciate an email notification regarding ongoing road work outside the hotel.

    Everything about this property is gorgeous from the location, setting and furnishings. It's a really lovely holiday for a family group and a nice change from the usual Wanaka hotel chains. And for nervous drivers, don't worry - it's a simple 20 min drive into beautiful Wanaka.

    It’s a hostel in the middle of Wānaka. Excellent location. I didn’t see the facilities as I only stayed one night. The room was clean and tidy. Staff were helpful. I’d be happy to stay here again. If you want a hotel / motel - pay more and stay somewhere else.
