A very good hotel. The concierge will provide free valet parking. The front desk staff are also friendly and enthusiastic. They will answer and satisfy all questions. The dinner is 5 courses and the service is also very good. I am very satisfied. I will stay here next time when I go to the west coast. Will choose.

One of the few five-star hotels in New Zealand, the front desk is Chinese. The room is also relatively clean, the restaurant in the hotel is delicious, there will be someone to help carry the luggage when you arrive at the store, the overall feeling is good

Our stay was an upgrade from their sister hotel in Franz Josef. Beautiful setting and welcoming staff, we were taken to our room which was about as far away from the main building as you could get ( but close to our car) We did not have dinner there as the only option was a tasting menu of 5 courses and that was it. Our room was stylish with a balcony overlooking the forest but it was so dark. The breakfast the following morning was a bit disappointing whilst there was some very tasty local cheeses the bacon and sausages were the standard for New Zealand (which I don't really like) and only scrambled eggs. My husband asked a waiter if he could have fried eggs but was told that they only do scrambled, in a 5 star hotel! The dining room was very busy and the staff didn't seem to keep up with restocking the buffet. Perhaps they shouldn't take so many tour busses and they it would be a more relaxed experience.

This hotel was absolutely beautiful and our room was fantastic. Our 2 dinner meals were the best we ever had, could not fault it at all. Staff were very courteous and friendly. Situated in a beautiful bush setting. A short walk from the town center. Would highly recommend
