I really don't think I can fully express how wonderful and perfect this place is. Firstly the design is incredible, so much packed into a small space. Then add the deck, the spa and a bed that looks out to a stunning view - it really doesn't get any better than this. Oh, and it is one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in - and the silk sheets are super luxurious. We actually spent one whole day in bed (enjoying that view) and my back still never got sore (something I regularly deal with). So while it's hard to drag yourself away from the place, there is a pretty beautiful walk along the river and into old Arrowtown. It took us an about 50min one direction (with frequent stops to look and take photos) and a 30 min walk back home. We made our own dinner in the room but there are plenty of places in town if you want to eat out. What else? So much storage - a HUGE wardrobe, lots of drawers, and then under bed drawers as well. No worries if you're staying for a while. Sadly (in a way) we didn't get to use the fire as the place stayed nice and warm (mid-October), but we definitely enjoyed the spa, both in the day and under the stars at night. We only left yesterday and I already miss it. We will definitely be back.
