It was a great spot for us in our short time in Wānaka. I’m sure if the weather had been better we would have more to rave about, but this hotel met our needs just fine and it was clean and comfortable. Thank you!

Room was small, but clean. Location is perfect, just a block walk down to beautiful Lake Wanaka (we could see it from our room). I highly recommend it as a destination.

Nice, spotlessly clean, good value for money, centrally located. The room was not huge, but you get what you pay for. Nice toiletries, friendly check-in. Nothing to fault.
