The rooms was very clean and tidy. Room decor was cool. Comfy beds. The location of the room next to the cafe and bar was very convenient. And the staff was lovely. Highly recommend this place for anyone.

So good - an amazing location off the beaten path, views to die for and incredible facilities especially given the remote location! Even better there was no cell reception so no chance of being distracted from the amazing surroundings, a proper escape. Amazing starscapes at night and super comfy beds to enjoy them from if the weather gets a bit cold. Harriet & David really have thought of everything, we will be back!
This lakefront eco-property is located on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, just a 25-minute scenic drive from Queenstown and 15-minutes drive from Glenorchy.

This is not a "lodge". This is a work of art, which you can stay at. Every aspect of the house interior is thoughtfully and aesthetically decorated using vibrant, warm colours and richly textured wood. The toilet's cistern is a fish tank (no, really!). The house is situated in a large and extraordinary garden filled with trees, flowers, water features, and sculpture. There is (of course) a large number of peacocks, which you can feed. Kitchen, bath, and toilet are shared but very well equipped, and very clean.
Glenorchy is out of this world. Stunning. The road trip there is overwhelming and there are so many fabulous hikes. The wee village has a great hotel with really nice food and vegetarian friendly, same with Mrs Woolly's General Store and good coffee.

The Glenorchy wharf is a perfect little spot to enjoy some local beer from the pub that sells takeaway bottles! Absolutely perfect, we loved it. Just relaxed on the wharf and had couple drinks and a walk alongside the lagoon area.
Lovely coffee at the local general store!
Awesome little local pub and just a beautiful spot to relax for a night if in between places and wanting to chill before the chaotic Queenstown

Glenorchy was a convenient place to start and finish our tramping trips. It is a pleasant town on its own merits, but for this trip it was just an accommodation and meal place to start and finish our recreation in the backcountry

We are glad that we stayed in Glenorchy and not in crowded Queenstown. It was easy to get around and has a great small-town vibe.
We hiked the Mt. Judah trail and in peak season, we only saw 3 people and a dog. The view of Lake Wakatipu and Glenorchy was breathtaking. To compare, we hiked Roy’s Peak in Wanaka and saw at least 100 people on the trail, and while we did not go to the very top, I think that Mt. Judah was much prettier and interesting with the old scheelite processing shed and views of a forested river gorge. We also had a chance to see part of the Glenorchy Horse Races which was very festive and entertaining. The Paradise Zipline adventure is just a few minutes from Glenorchy and we agree that it was definitely one not to miss. The guides were safety-oriented, so you are in good hands. We were also treated to a nature talk as we hiked uphill a short distance through a beech-dominated forest. A series of 8 ziplines zigzag across and through a spectacular forested river gorge. Awesome!
I normally don’t do many reviews but I thought I would add some comments.My review is not aimed directly at the hotel but purely giving my opinion about the way I viewed my stay which may well be very different to others. The property is clearly a high quality build and no expense has been spared on the Ecco detail.
Easy booking and arrival, super clean and convenient to be able to stay in Glenorchy for an event. Very Old but an effort has been made on presentation in the room. Appreciate that they've stayed open during a very quiet time during Covid and the option to stay is still available.
We'd like to compliment Arlene and her husband on her very friendly and good customer service. We loved that the hotel was directly beside the restaurant for dinner and breakfast, and directly across from the pub for additional dining options. Very close walk to the lake.
Location was awesome nice historical site
Accommodation comfortable and clean
Restaurant a bit pricey but understandable as nearest town Glenorchy would be wise to take some of your own supplies
