Reviews for Otahuna Lodge
OMG!
We have travelled the world only to find the perfect location is Otahuna Lodge. Only a short drive from Christchurch airport you find yourself in a truly magnificent property with the most outstanding homestead. The team are amazing and you will have the best experience, food, gardens, ambience. Put this one on your list and make sure you visit! We will be back….

Like coming home!
A return stay and we are coming back again for a longer stay! Thank you Miles and Hall. And thank you to an incredible staff! As always we loved the Rhodes Suite and the amazing dinner and breakfast and cocktail hour. It truly is like coming home when we are there, and this is a gift that the Otahuna has. Finally, your book is wonderful and a great keepsake! See you again!

An incomparable experience when visiting New Zealand
Otahuna Lodge is a very special place. It was without peer of places we stayed during our month in New Zealand. We loved it so much we hated to leave, wanted to stay longer and vowed to come back. Why? On arrival, it felt like Downton Abbey. The staff came out to greet us by name. The grounds are beautiful. The rooms exceptional. The food a culinary delight. Most of all, they genuinely seem to welcome their guests and do everything to make the stay at Otahuna Lodge memorable. They do a superb job of blending guests during pre-dinner drinks without forcing socialization that people might not want. Walking the grounds transports you to another time and age. From the person who takes you your luggage up to your room to the proprietor Arthur everyone does what they can to accommodate you. Even your laundry is quietly taken away and cleaned for free with a very short turn around time. Anyone would be lucky to book a stay at Otahuna Lodge, and I encourage you to stay there for at least a week, not the three days we were there. We didn't want to leave.

The very best place to stay in the world!
This is the best place I have ever stayed in! I have travelled the world and seen many countries, stayed in amazing hotels but have never experienced anything like this. Miles, Hall, and their team have hospitality and service completely mastered! The food is the best I have experienced anywhere in the world. There is nothing I can think of for them to improve on...quite simply, they have got it right! It is not cheap but is worth every penny. The problem was this being our first experience in NZ, we kept (unsuccessfully) looking for something similar. Please Hall and Miles expand to other places in NZ....we would go wherever you had something to offer as I am certain your other guests would! We keep telling everyone we meet to visit you at Otahuna!
