Clean and a comfortable bed but old fashioned. Bedside lamps would be a very good idea. Also, there was only a small table and one chair outside-it was very hot when we visited so had to take a second chair from another empty unit. These chalets are supposed to sleep 6!

Thank you for your review and I am happy you thought the unit clean and found the bed comfortable, however, If there were no lamps beside the beds its because they are attached to the wall above it. Loungers, chairs and tables are spread round the swimming pool, and also several picnic tables in the back yard for guest use.... More

We were struggling to get somewhere and Biking Lodge could fit us ink for 1 night. Reasonably priced, self contained property. Very comfortable and clean. A little dated but not a problem. Full kitchen and also had a washing machine in the property. Had everything you needed and the owners of the Lodge were very friendly and helpful.

This place is a gem, it's not the usual type of place we would choose to stay at, preferring something a bit more upmarket but we had a few nights here as part of a cycling holiday and were really impressed with the accommodation. The units were spotlessly clean and very well appointed. In fact it's made us re-think future... More

We stayed a couple of nights at this motel. It was nice to have a unit that was completely separate to the other units so no noises carried from other units. It was well set up with all the kitchen equipment we needed and also a washing machine so we didn't have to go and find the laundry. The decor... More

Very clean and warm, a lovely peaceful place to stay, away from noisy Queenstown, but close enough to visit.

This motel provided for us ample living space, a warm environment including efficient under floor heating and comfortable bedding and bed. It also had a functional recently renovated kitchen and was central to walking trails and attractions. It was clean and quiet and hence all our basic needs were well met. Our rating 3.5 - but with potential for higher.... More

The chalet-style accommodation is everything needed for a short or long stay. If looking for modern accommodation then this is not for you. But if looking for very comfortable and very clean accommodation with self-catering capacity, including your own quality washing maching, then this is for you. It has real character. (Iron and ironing board is available in room available... More

Was recommended by a friend and not disappointed. Spacious lodge for four adults. Fully serviced kitchen area and our own laundry facilities. Had a little problem with the lock on our door but with a joint effort from 1 of our party and the owner it was soon remedied. It's a little walk into the town a pleasant stroll through... More

We stayed here for a week over the Xmas break. This place was quiet, clean and comfortable. It is a bit old and dated. Rooms vary with differences in decor and furniture because they are individually owned. Great pool and BBQ area. Location is good with an ambling 10min walk to town. Arrowtown is an awesome wee town with great... More
