The attention to details is exceptional. Love the food (omelette was to die for) and the afternoon tea is worth saving yourself for. One of the best places i've stayed in. More

The moment we set foot inside the Dairy we know we were in for a treat. Our hosts Matt and Paul have created not only a tasteful and beautifully presented hotel but one that is also cosy, relaxing and homely. They have a professional approach but one with a warm and personal touch.The Hotel is extremely well located for all... More

Paul and Matt has essentially opened their home to us during our wonderful 5 day 4 night stay in beautiful Queenstown. Their sincere hospitality was evident from our "check in" which was very nice chat about travel, a nice tour around the hotel, the facilities, all of which are all quite quaint but modern. We loved the "cooked to order"... More

I chose this hotel based on trip advisor reviews and it surpassed my expectations. This is a wonderful place to stay and Paul and Matt are so nice and incredibly helpful. I only had 2 days to stay in Queenstown (boo!) but they really helped me make the most of it. As soon as I arrived they had me ready... More

Loved our stay here, from the welcome chocolates to the delicious gourmet breakfasts and afternoon teas. Our hosts were very welcoming, had bikes to borrow for a ride around town. The Dairy is right in the heart of town, restaurants and sights are all a quick walk away. This was the highlight of our New Zealand trip. there is also... More

A great little boutique hotel/home. I will definitely stay here again. Terrific Queenstown location. Matt & Paul are the best. Why would anyone stay in some big hotel when they can experience the charm of this place? More

Its hard to know what to write when it's all been said before. Matt and Paul are charming and their lavish attention puts this luxury lodge ahead of all the rest. You will not find better service or ambience anywhere. We were there New Years Eve and they arranged a special pre dinner party with champagne and hors doeuvres. We... More

I have no complaints whatsoever about this hotel. First off, the only thing I was worried about was that it did not appear to be right in the middle of all the action, well I can assure you it is. It was a short walk to the main eating/shopping area and a VERY short walk to the gondola and hike... More

I need serious counseling to stop me thinking about how wonderful "The Dairy" is. If you're looking for great views and luxurious rooms - forget this place - there are probably better lake views in one of those "dime-a-dozen" places down by Lake Wakitipu. But if you want a "once-in-a-lifetime" experience of gracious hospitality, food, luxury and soul-warming comfort, you... More
