View was so good we could not believe it. Rooms immaculate and the service was great. Couldn't ask for more. Gas fireplace, comfy couch, electric blankets and secure carparking all within walking distance of the city!

We booked a lake view room expecting as the ad says, "luxury" and 5 star quality. When you walk into the room you are impressed with the king size bed, and floor to ceiling tiles in the bath room. The entry door wouldn't open fully because the bed furniture obstructs it, like the door was an after thought when they... More

How could anyone not be captivated by the location and view .I had a standard room and it was perfect.Great size with each room having its own lake view and balcony.I wanted to stay longer!! A good standard of breakfast however no restaurant for evening meal.The stunning view of the Remarkables made the few minute walk to town worth it.

We stayed in a beautiful one bedroom suite at the Peppers and really enjoyed our stay. The room had a nice living area, a beautiful kitchen and "to die for" views from the patio of the lake and mountains. The hotel is situated on edge of town within easy walking of all major tourist destinations - we walked everywhere except... More

Short of being an exquisite 5 star property this is a great value, great located property certainly worthy of being 4 stars. 5 minute stroll to the waterfront/town centre so one doesn't need a car.

A wonderful location and lovely property. Well set up close to town and with views over the Lake. One small gripe was uncomfortable beds in the two bed room apartment we had. I would definitely stay here again.
