The place it's a nice stylish property. Only problem was the noise from outside what the other guests made late night. The place good for people who want to have a nice dinner at the restaurant/bar & want to stay for a night. Only for travelers maybe it won't be the best choice. Thanks

Exceptional hotel! Wish we had stayed longer...
Despite our late arrival, the staff graciously offered us access to the hot tub after hours. Check-in was seamless. Our room was wonderfully comfortable, featuring remarkably solid doors that spoke to the historic character of this establishment. Everything about Cardrona Hotel impressed - from the stunning grounds and views to the exceptional restaurant, bakery, and shop. Our only disappointment was having such a short stay - we wished we could have extended our visit beyond one night.

Hubby and I stayed one night in Mid November 2024. Such a beautiful place to stay. Rooms are older but very comfortable. Not far from Wanaka or Queenstown. Price for the night was very reasonable and I would highly recommend staying here.

It is a must place to stay. You will love having a break fast or lunch or dinner. Especially the location of the Hotel is Unique & I really loved staying in the hotel & Beer garden at the back is so beautiful. You feel like you’re sitting in a Historic hotel.
