Contact & Directions
Reception is staffed 24 hours, every day of the year. Call, email, or send the enquiry form below and we will come back to you within a few hours. For same-day arrivals please call rather than write.
Getting here
Queenstown Airport is 8km east, about fifteen minutes by road.
From the airport
A private car booked through the hotel is NZ$75 each way for up to three passengers. The airport shuttle runs every twenty minutes and stops two hundred metres from the door. Tell us your flight number and reception will watch it — delays are the norm here in winter.
By car
From State Highway 6 follow Frankton Road into town, then Lake Esplanade along the water. The hotel is on the lake side, three hundred metres past the Sunshine Bay turn. Undercover parking on site, NZ$28 per night, thirty-one spaces, two EV chargers.
On foot
Ten minutes into the town centre along the lakeside path — flat, lit, and considerably nicer than the road. The gondola base is fifteen minutes, Steamer Wharf twelve. The path continues west towards Sunshine Bay and Fernhill.

What the desk can do
The concierge desk is staffed from 7am to 10pm, and reception covers it the rest of the time. Most of what we book carries no fee — we hold the operators’ rates rather than marking them up.

Up the mountain
Ski passes, hire and lessons; shuttles to Coronet Peak and the Remarkables. Gondola and luge tickets. Hiking transport to the Routeburn, Greenstone and Ben Lomond trailheads.
Everything else
Gibbston Valley and Bannockburn wine tours, bungee at the Kawarau and Nevis sites, restaurant bookings in town including the hard ones, car hire, private drivers, dry cleaning and luggage storage.
Reservations
Send us the shape of the stay — dates, how many of you, what you are here for — and reception will reply with availability and a price.
Reception is staffed at three in the morning,
and someone will answer the telephone
