Our room located is 10mins walk to ‘the lonely tree’. It’s very quiet, we are at second floor, room 406. but I saw the first floor is also very good view. The brunch is good, it’s worth to try it.
WiFi is not very fast, room is perfect for 2 people.

I am truly very grateful to the owner for providing a room that exceeded our expectations, and both my friends and I really enjoyed it. As soon as I stepped inside, I saw the most beautiful scenery outside the balcony. The room is very spacious and clean and comfortable. This is the best check-in experience!

Was on 2nd floor, need to walk up but fortunately there was porter service to help our luggage. Room a bit small but clean.

Great room with views of the lake at sunrise.
Heating is pretty good and you can park infront of the room.
Well equipped kitchen has everything you need.
Not really setup for skiers , no ski room

Dated decor and facilities. Location is perfect. 20 minutes walk to Wanaka tree along the lake side. Look up the sky can see Milky Way.

Clean and spacious room with a fantastic lake view – loved waking up to it every morning. The staff were super friendly and helpful throughout the stay. It’s about a 5-minute drive to the city centre, so a car helps, but overall a peaceful and comfortable place to stay.

It is right next to That Wanaka Tree. Not too big but everything is more than enough. I recommend the restaurant at the Hotel. Nice food with a relaxing vibe. Good service as well.

Location is very good with stunning views. However the room assigned to us was very old with decor from probably 30 years ago. Balcony door and windows are hard to open/close with a lot of small bugs outside. Only one outlet in the room far away from the bed. I booked one king room but was given a king + twin leaving no space for us to place luggage etc.

Nicely located hotel, walkable distance to the infamous Wanaka Tree. Toilet seem to be needing a little maintenance, other than this everything is great !

We came inside the hottest room we have been into, and It took us 2 hours to cool the room with 2 fans and with all the windows open....

It should be considered as a popular hotel in Wanaka. Since it was a place to stay, I only stayed for one night, but the overall experience was great.
If you drive, you can park your car directly at the door of the room. The first feeling after entering the room is that it is large and warm; you can walk directly to the lake from the hotel, and it only takes about 10 minutes to walk to the lonely tree, which is very convenient.
