Guest Reviews
They are great hosts and manage the staff to maintain high levels of service.
This boutique hotel is perfect for couples who want to be spoiled and enjoy luxury accommodations but don’t want the stuffy, overly formal decorum of typical expensive hotels. Beautifully restored house, well-appointed with lots of elegant design details, the views are amazing and a short walk to the heart of Queenstown restaurants. Jade and Jay provide a warm, intimate level of 5-star service without the fuss.
This is definitely a luxury stay
What a treasure this house is, lovingly restored. From arriving to leaving the staff could not do enough to ensure our stay was perfect. The lounge area is stunning and at the end of the day, of seeing the sites on offer, you are presented with drinks and canapes. Breakfast is very good and served in the lounge area. The Room we stayed in was beautiful with fantastic views of the mountain range and waterfront.
The staff was exceptional!
This is a true 5-star luxury boutique hotel. It is magnificently appointed in the form of an old Victorian mansion with 6 comfortable rooms, fabulous daily breakfast and cocktail hour, a lovely deck area, and gorgeous views of Lake Wakatipu. The staff was exceptional!
