What it’s good at
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Rooms are light-filled, with unfussy interiors flowing into private outdoor nooks, a terrace or patio attached to every room.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The Skyline Gondola is a two-minute walk away, and Lake Wakatipu sits just a five-minute stroll through the town center.
The rooms
Facing The Remarkables or surrounding peaks, each room features unpretentious interiors, private outdoor spaces, and a convenient kitchenette.
At the table
Daily à la carte breakfasts are cooked to order, with hot plates and fresh coffee served out on the patio.
How it began

The Patterson brothers bought the hotel in 2016, carrying on a South Island hotelier tradition started by their grandmother in 1939.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.

A place apart: the property is the destination.
