We Spent a very enjoyable night here. Very good clean room, good food in the pub, nice open fire, with friendly efficient staff. The atmosphere in the pub made you want to sit and enjoy the fire and food. It is a very nice country town with old world charm. As we are here in Autumn the trees were all... More

We stayed here on our holiday to New Zealand and we absolutely loved it! It was traditional and comfortable and was very country side! It is very close to Queenstown and is great if you have a car! Arrowtown itself is really beautiful and I would hands down recommend this place!

However the room was beautifully appointed with new fittings, an ensuite and a view over the Arrow River. The New Orleans may have been built in 1866 howver i was more than comfortable in... More

This is an average kiwi pub set in the centre of picturesque Arrowtown. The rooms were OK, location very good but the constant noise from the refridgeration units going on and off every 15 minutes ALL NIGHT made it a total waste of time as a place to sleep. Bar, road and other 'entertainment' noise would be expected, although we... More

All meals were reasonably priced and ample. Nice rear verandah/balcony to have a beer outside and it looks as if winter for this purpose is covered as... More

Enjoyed our stay. Just a bit noisy at night when people were walking past our room many times in the wee small hours. But very nice room and a great place to stay.
