Bookings
Our hotel has typical country rooms that you can expect from a hotel of this era. Warm, clean rooms with a comfy bed, toilet, shower and telly.
(Please note on busy weekends that they are in close proximity to the bar and there may be residual noise - part of the fun at times)
By booking online you can easily let us know special requirements and then from your confirmation, make any changes should you need them. A fast and easy process to ensure your best experience. Click the heading to book or here to see the Menu.
We have the privilege of managing a number of Waitaki Lakes Apartments in the complex adjacent to the hotel. These are all individually owned but managed by ourselves. Recently renovated or built, these one or two-bedroom apartments are well-appointed with a kitchenette & comfortable amenities.
