What an amazing boutique hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed the quiet boutique feel. Amazing bed. Amazing views of Queenstown and the surrounding area. The added touches were excellent. Lovely big room with excellent bedding. Easy walk into the centre of Queenstown. Continental breakfast was excellent. Peter and Christine were lovely hosts. We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent location, parking on site, great service, and nice and warm for the winter months. It is a friendly and welcoming place to stay and you have a much more personal experience than if you stayed in a large corporate hotel.

Absolutely loved!!!
The amount of attention to detail at this hotel is absolutely incredible! You can tell that someone has put so much thought into every corner of this lovely little boutique, from fresh baked Anzac biscuits to makeup remover satchels. My room was immaculate. The mattress was comfortable. The view was lovely. The location was ideal. There's also a comfy lounge area, some tables outside, and a bright breakfast room.
