Historische hotels in South Island

'Our room was very nice in many respects, luxurious even. Still we would not choose to stay here again, because the couple who manage the place showed very little flexibility and sense of service when they denied our request (that we put in after one day) to cut our stay at the hotel short from four to three nights. The lady literally immediately pulled out the fine print of the agreement and told us that "from a business standpoint", she couldn't allow this. Very disappointing and, as you can...

'The room we were in, James Cook, was wonderful. Clean, well equipped, comfortable, with a lovely deck. It was also great to have breakfast provided each day. Steffan and Michelle are fantastic hosts. Warm, proactive, helpful, and fun. I highly, highly recommend this place.'

'Was exactly what we needed and so quiet. We will be back next year 😊'

'Idyllic setting on a large working farm. My wife fell in love with Ginger, a small pet pig, on the property. Great hosts. The highlight of our stay on the South Island.'

'Teapot Cottage was a great place to stay. It fitted our adult family of five comfortably and provided us a unique experience with a record player and classic board games and books for entertainment. The host Dan showed us over his property and pointed us in the right direction for river walks nearby. We were sorry to only be there for the one night.'

'Very comfortable & well equipped, would’ve stayed longer if we’d known. But it was difficult to find! Google maps just took us to Glentunnel, where we got uncertain directions from the shop.'

'Great location, warm comfortable room with everything you need'
