It's a beautiful hotel in a lovely location. I highly recommend it. Would have loved to stay there more than one night. Would love it if there was a fridge and microwave in the room. The food in the bar was amazing, albeit a bit pricey.

This hotel is a hidden gem. It is quaint and charming, and actually delivers a unique experience to customers. It is only 15 mins out of Wanaka and you could drive past without noticing it. We stayed in the Captain's room hidden behind the hotel in a lovely garden area. The room was little but very cosy and beautifully quirky with little thoughtful touches. We indulged in the hot tub before our delicious dinner and enjoyed the view of the mountain peaks. Having stayed in other top rated hotels around the South Island, we cannot recommend this place more highly as it stands out as not just excellent value for money but also creating a lasting memory of somewhere very different in a world of uniform experiences.

Lovely old mining lodge turned hotel. Restaurant had amazing food but otherwise not much around. Reception was a little hard to find as we walk in through the restaurant not knowing which door to go through but once found all was well. Hot tub was a nice use after long day. Would recommend and stay again
