Motel conveniently located to downtown Wanaka. It's a short 5 minute walk to the lake so you can get to everything but still have peace and quiet in the evenings.

We loved this large, modern room with kitchenette, large bath and balcony. It was up the hill from town, so much quieter and still an easy walk to town center. AC worked well and hosts were really helpful. We will stay here again!

After a great experience two years ago, we chose Archway for our return trip to Wanaka. The manager was incredibly helpful and proactive, coordinating our check-in and providing a seamless self-check-in option for our late arrival. They also kindly let us store our bags after check-out, which gave us the freedom to explore the local scenery unencumbered. With the property currently expanding, it’s clear that Archway remains a popular choice for many. We’ll definitely be back!

Archway Suites in Wanaka is within walking of lake and downtown area. Family studio is perfect for a family with 2 kids. Bathroom is modern and stylish. Kitchenette is very clean and convenient, with needed supplies. Staff was extremely helpful, and we were able to get early check-in. We liked it so much we changed our other plans and stayed there again a week later as we passed through Wanaka!
