What a wonderful location, the staff were attentive and the rooms were rich and inviting. Each room had a proper espresso machine, spacious bathroom with deep sunken tub for relaxing in after the adventures and activities of the day, plus the patented Sofitel MyBed helping you to have a peaceful and relaxing sleep. What I enjoyed the most is that the resort is right in the heart of queenstown. Within minutes we were surrounded by café’s, shopping, all the adventures on Lake Wakatipu as well as a short drive to Arrowtown. I definitely recommend this hotel.
Stayed in the 2 bedroom brand new mountain villas. They are separated from the main house by a short drive but have everything you could possibly need to enjoy a relaxing stay. The new 2 bedroom Mountain Villas come complete with a fully equipped kitchen, washer/dryer, 2 or 3 master bedrooms that are configured exactly the same (so no fighting over who has the best room or en-suite) and a deck that offers a jacuzzi tub and bbq. The views are simply stunning and my favorite part of the day was breakfast to the sounds of the bird-songs and evening wines on the deck as the sun set through the eucalyptus trees.
