Very nicely located. Close to the places in town without having to be in the middle of the action. Quiet, nicely equipped, after hours Checkin super easy!
Great location close to many restaurants and shops. Parking available on-site or just nearby the hotel if the carpark was full. Room wasn't huge but was comfortable enough for a short stay. Staff were helpful and accommodated our late check-in. Would recommend staying here if you are passing through Wanaka.
Very enjoyable stay, we liked being in town near the lake
Enjoyed going to find coffee and crepes around the corner
We found the convience kitchen very helpful to us as we prep our own food for day long treks
Everything was amazing from check in to check out. Friendly, clean, comfortable. Great location, very quiet even though right in the centre of town. Thanks Tom! Looking forward to our next stay
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.

Very handy location Central Wanaka, easy walking distance to main bars and restaurants. Clean and tidy.
Perfect location! Central/downtown without being very expensive. Made popping out to shops/pubs/restaurants so easy. Our 3 day trip was to attend a wedding in Wanaka. We drove down from Christchurch so was great being able to park the car safely there. Will definitely stay there next time.
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!
