Favorite hotel of our trip!
We stayed here for our last night in NZ and it was the perfect end to our trip. Beautiful grounds and hotel! Staff were friendly and welcoming. All food was amazing- we ate dinner and breakfast there. My tip would be to get there early afternoon to enjoy the beer garden before your dinner reservation! We will be back for sure! Next time with the kids to utilize the very cute playground off to the right of the beer garden!

A thoroughly enjoyable stay at this unique property. Large comfortable rooms, excellent food and friendly staff. Cardrona is an experience not to be missed. We especially loved sitting outside in the sunny grass area on the bean bags and when it cooled moved to the indoor fire place for a meal.

Well, it is certainly quaint, different and thoughly appealing! We have driven past many times on visits to NZ, but never stayed here before. Now it's absolutely on our list, both to stay, and recommend.

Wonderful location, full of character, helpful staff, option of bar food or restaurant, reasonable prices, only slight criticisms are no air conditioning (not even a fan) and a (very) old tv! Overall an excellent stay though!!
