Cardrona Hotel features an iconic on-site restaurant and bar. You can enjoy the picturesque gardens while sipping a drink on the patio. This hotel features a hot tub, a ski drying room and shared lounge and laundry facilities. I was shocked how lovely my room was for the price - I had a couch in my room and a balcony that overlooked the garden. The staff is lovely and professional - the hot tub is cozy after a long hike or drive - and the food was excellent. It was nice to cozy up next to the fire in the morning with my Magic Mushrooms bfast. Would recommend as this place bursts with charm.

Wanaka Luxury Apartments are situated only 600 metres from the shores of Lake Wanaka. The ski fields at Cardrona Alpine Resort and Treble Cone Ski Area are just 35 minutes’ drive away. We got a 3 bedroom apartment, it was a pleasant surprise to see it was actually a 1 bedroom apartment + 2 bedroom apartment with its own kitchen! Each room had its own toilet, which was really luxurious. Everything was just super comfortable, super easy check in process too!

Featuring a beautiful garden setting, the Settlers Cottage Motel is a 5-minute walk from the historic town centre of Arrowtown and a 20-minute drive from Queenstown. It offers country-style accommodation with free on-site parking for 1 car per room. This is a wonderful place to stay in the heart of Arrowtown. The room was large but cosy and warm, very clean, and with everything we needed. The host was very friendly and helpful, and gave us really good suggestions for breakfast and dinner (at a very nice pub 5 minutes away). The motel is a wonderful turn-of-the-century building, and within a few minutes from the town centre. Close by is the river walk. Arrowrown is surrounded by mountains, and is really avery pretty place to visit, and stay overnight. Much quieter than Queenstown. We visited in September, and the price was really good.
