We arrived Christmas eve and stayed 4 nights in the gorgeous Lodge Suites overlooking Lake Wakatipu. The views are exceptional - the Lodge has the most stunning location. Food (Jonathan Rogers is the chef) is delicious and menu changes each night. Very flexible with the children's food. Staff so welcoming, unstuffy but incredibly kind and helpful. We loved every minute... More

We booked Matakauri months before we arrived. The service was perfect for us. We even compared with all other great hotels that we ever stayed, and still Matakauri is top notch.

The gym is pretty good for a small place if you like to work out (but no free weights - decent treadmill and nice view though!). The service staff is... More

We spent three nights at the Matakauri Lodge and it really made our visit to Queenstown memorable. All I can do is echo the other reviewers by saying the food was outstanding, both at breakfast and at dinner. The service was friendly, informed and efficient. The views out of the bathtub unparalleled...price is an issue, but I really felt it... More
