Eichardt's Private Hotel in Queenstown, on New Zealand's South Island is a landmark luxury hotel in the centre of the city which has acquired a reputation as the world's capital of adventure sports.

Set in the heart of the Southern Alps on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, this gold rush town has become the epitome of Victorian elegance. The Queenstown Historical Society rightly holds the Eichardt's Private Hotel in great reverence. As a visitor yourself, the first thing to smite your senses is the extraordinary loveliness of its location - on the edge of the lake whose fathomless still waters invert the brooding majesty of the encircling mountains.

The historic building is in the premium lakefront position at the heart of Queenstown's cafe and restaurant precinct, with some of the finest international shopping labels an easy stroll away.

Inhale the invigorating alpine air - then step out into the expectant evening and let the lights of Queenstown and canopy of stars guide you to one of the world class restaurants nearby. When winter's blanket descends over the town, the allure of open log fires, coffee aromas and cheery conversation beckon you in from the cold.

The hotel provides accommodation in five luxurious suites with stunning lake and mountain views.

The rooms all feature a super-king bed, fireplace and mini-bar, a dressing room and bathroom with generous bath and double vanity, separate shower, heated mirror and floor.

Each one is fully entertainment and business integrated with personal audiovisual systems, along with email and Internet access.
