Great venue for being right in town and if you're out and about all day.
Pros:

Excellent location - we didn't use the car once we arrived. Breakfast was a great value inclusion.

Cons:

Room was a bit small but given the downstairs lounge area and that we were out all day it didn't really matter.

Amazing!
Pros:

Its all in the little things they do extra, unlimited lolly/tea/coffee/cool drinks, free happy hour every night with alcohol and cheese platters. Hot tub available and included in the room price. Gorgeous breakfast included and complimemtary mini bar with snacks and drink fir each room.
The location was perfection, 50m to the centre of the town and 50m to the luge and kiwi park etc.
This was the best hotel we have stayed in throughout our time in the South Island. Will definitely be back!

Cons:

Nothing not to like.
