Wendy and David, our hosts, were wonderful! They worked well as a team to prepare our amazing breakfasts (David's excellent homemade granola) with delicious juice and coffee options. They also have excellent suggestions of things to do and see + restaurant recommendations. Wendy even gave us a ride to the hiking path to town which was a great option. Wow--we couldn't have asked for better service. In addition, there is a yoga/workout room, sauna , and jacuzzi. Absolutely incredible views from our room. The BEST stay, thanks to our wonderful hosts, location and accommodations. Highly recommend.

What a wonderful place to stay- more like a home than a hotel. David and Wendy were terrific hosts. Excellent soy latte and perfect poached eggs on sourdough for breakfast. We also availed ourselves of the hot tub which takes a while to prepare, but is amazing to sit out on a cool evening and watch the spectacular lightshow of the Remarkables at sunset. Would definitely return!

New Zealand Paradise

Stunning views of lake and mountains out every window! Chef-prepared cook-to-order breakfast (delicious!) We enjoyed the sauna, wood-fire hot tub, and plush robes. Comfortable lounge with floor to ceiling windows; I curled up there to read a good book and have a cup of tea in the evenings. Lodge had not many rooms, so it was quiet and felt very private. Staff was wonderful, very welcoming and accommodating. Couldn’t recommend any higher.

Hidden Gem in Queenstown

My wife and I had an amazing experience at this lodge. I would definitely stay there again as they offered more than an amazing place to stay, they provided an experience to speak with some locals who have the BEST recs on what to do and are just great people to talk to. We also tried the hot tub which was a great experience. It's just outside of town so you feel removed but close enough to take a nice walk or local bus. Great location and amazing views I can't say enough good things about this place and the amazing people that run it. You feel like family!

This was our second stay at this property whilst on honeymoon. Once again, we were the only guests in the lodge. Service as previous was excellent and the breakfast was excellent also. We did use the hot tub in this instance which was nice but requires some notice and we thought it was a bit pricey at $80.

We took a bit of a chance on staying slightly further out of the town, and in a boutique lodge. It paid off, the stay was incredible. Staff were wonderful, informative, helpful and efficient. The views and location were world class. We enjoyed everything about the Hidden Lodge. Thanks for having us!!
