What a cool hotel! Funky retro style, the views of Mt Cook & surrounding scenery are unbelievable!! We were in the older part of the hotel but it was fine. Next time I’d probably go for the Premium Plus rooms in the bigger tower for the unobstructed views

Amazing views and good selection of dining options. The room we had was in the original part of the hotel and located under the staircase which was not ideal as the stairs creek. Otherwise a great spot at the base of Mt Cook.
