We booked the Chardonnay based on reviews here and we weren't disappointed. The accommodation comfortable, bathroom very clean and the service friendly. Two thumbs up for the free wi-fi, something bigger establishments could learn from. More

Stayed 4 nights and excellent. Lovely surroundings, nice grounds, helpful hosts and modern well-equipped unit. Would highly recommend. More

Beautiful location, good spacious rooms, great hostess. Was last minute booking as our previous hotel was in the quake affected CBD. Thought it would be close to the airport as advertised, but its actually not that close. No eateries around.
