8.6/10 Excellent! (398 reviews)

The room was acceptably clean and quiet as it was at the end of the hallway. even though a bunch of young kids were staying at the hotel and we're kind of rowdy, our room was quite quiet. The housekeeping staff was exceptional

Good clean and spacious room with great facilities. Staff helpful particularly the lady in the mornings. Location ideal for exploring the city with the tram literally outside. Small hotel with quirky rooms would recommend.

Hit the slopes at one of New Zealand’s largest ski areas, which is best known for its long season and gorgeous surrounding scenery.

Rakaia Gorge

Take a jet boat ride, go fishing, head out on a scenic walk with stunning views or just enjoy the incredible turquoise hues of this river gorge.

Absolutely stunning! We visited on the opening weekend and it was great. Powdery open trails, get trails for all levels too. Not busy by any standard, and the views from the top are breathtaking.

Advice: It is in a basin where the sun doesn't get to much so dress warmly! And I would recommend a 4 wheel drive as the road is very steep gravel :)

Other than that - just the essentials. Snacks, and a camera!
