The Hilton, Queenstown
Finally, at the higher end, we have the Hilton Queenstown. This is the place.
The only hotel positioned directly on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, Hilton Queenstown showcases panoramic views over an unspoilt terrain famed the world over for its intense beauty. This is an exhilarating setting, and one without compromise - just 15 minutes from Queenstown by lake or land.
Bedrooms are spacious, and harmonise with the grandeur of the landscape. Schist fireplaces feature, along with floor-to-ceiling windows - most rooms look to the lake or the mountains. All rooms are air-conditioned, with separate lounges and private balconies or decks. In Relaxation Rooms, hot tubs feature on private decks, and Suites on higher floors provide even more space and luxury. Throughout the hotel, stand-out works by New Zealand artists evoke the spirit of the land.
Signature restaurant the Wakatipu Grill reflects the best of New Zealand on a grand scale. Expertly helmed by renowned Chef Peter Thornley, the cuisine is inspiring, with provocative takes on New Zealand flavours. Enjoy the extraordinary sight of the lake, the drama of the open kitchen and rotisserie, and the sensuous ambience, enhanced by two magnificent circular fireplaces. In the bar, be tempted by an exceptional Central Otago Pinot Noir from the 1000-strong wine cellar, or linger on the terrace, where the lake's indigo depths are accentuated by a decadent fire pit.
Cru Wine Bar & Lounge is an iconic destination for après-ski or an intimate evening. Sink into a plush leather armchair amidst sumptuous interiors and watch the world go by. Beyond the hotel, Kawarau Village's restaurants, cafes, bars and specialty stores await.
And for the ultimate indulgence, eforea: spa by Hilton is Queenstown's largest with 10 treatment rooms and a 25m heated indoor pool. With a focus on organic treatments, eforea promises a transformative therapeutic journey.
