Eichardt's Private Hotel
Step into a world of timeless elegance, poised on the shores of Lake Wakatipu. For more than 160 years, Eichardt’s Private Hotel has stood as one of Queenstown’s most distinguished addresses, a heritage retreat where historic charm meets contemporary luxury. Every corner of this boutique retreat has been designed to maximise breathtaking alpine views – whether you’re sipping coffee on a private balcony or cosied up by the fireplace in your luxurious suite.
After days spent exploring Queenstown’s boutique galleries, scenic walking trails or world-class ski resorts, retreat to the hotel for a feast at The Grille, where locally sourced ingredients shine in a bistro-style menu. A nightcap at Eichardt’s Bar is the perfect way to end a day in Queenstown.
Eichardt’s Private Hotel is perfectly situated in the heart of Queenstown, offering easy access to stunning Lake Wakatipu and the town centre. For breathtaking views of Queenstown and surrounds, the Skyline Gondola is a 10-minute walk away. The hotel is approximately a 15-minute drive from Queenstown International Airport (ZQN). Airport transfers are not included in your package, please plan accordingly.
