“Excellent boutique accomodation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012

This was our favorite property during our 2 week stay on the South Island. Rooms were clean, modern, and spacious. Our bathroom has a beautiful soaking tub in it. Service was excellent and personal; the staff helped us with various reservations. Breakfast was cooked to order, though the dining area is a little small - grab a table early if the place seems fully booked. Staff was very kind to prepare breakfast earlier for us one day when we had an early departure planned. We allso enjoyed the wine, appetizer happy hour in the evening. Location is about a 15 minute walk to the downtown.This place reminded us of a slightly more casual version of the Kimpton properties we enjoy in the States.

“A Treasure”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012

We experienced wonderful accommodations and great service at this lovely small hotel in Queenstown. The owners are so gracious and friendly. We felt at home right away and loved our large, airy room that was immaculate and beautifully furnished.
The owners host appetizers and drinks in the evening and visit with their guests. They are so interesting to talk with and helpful.
We always looked forward to breakfasts which were hearty and delicious. We were impressed that the entire staff was just happy to work there and wanted to make our stay very special.
The location is perfect. It is just a two minute walk from the shops and restaurants in Queenstown but very quiet and peaceful.
We will definitely stay at Central Ridge Boutique Hotel again.

“Great find”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

We stayed here in November 2011. The location was very nice - in a non-commercial area, but a short, pleasant walk to the lake, restaurants, activities. The hosts could not have been more helpful, and the breakfasts were wonderful. The accommodations were excellent - what more can I say? Would love to return.

“Good small hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

We enjoyed our stay at the Central Ridge hotel. I'm not sure I would call it a "boutique" hotel, but it was very comfortable, fine breakfast, very friendly and helpful hosts. It is a fairly small hotel, near to the downtown, but a bit removed, and quite close to the nice botanic gardens (good for running or strolling). The rooms are of good size, comfortable, modern and well equipped; they are not particularly distinctive compared to, say, a good quality modern motel. What sets the place apart, we felt, were the warm hosts.

Overall, a very comfortable place to stay in (sometimes hectic) Queenstown.

Room Tip: We had a nice room on the bottom floor, with a little outdoor sitting area. Others have, I believe...
