Comfortable apartment
The apartment was great. Bed was comfortable, space was nice. Location was OK, although it’s not as close to restaurants and stores as we would have liked - it’s a longish walk with a steep park in the way. An easy drive, but parking can be difficult.

Super apartment, as described. Lovely front balcony. A short walk to the town through a wood, one or two steep sections but not difficult. Great stay.

Best place to stay in Arrowtown
We spent 2 nights in this very special accommodation. Spectacular views from every window, gorgeous furnishings and the most comfortable bed. Highly recommend and by far the best place we stayed in South island NZ. Easy walk to town and surrounding attractions. The hosts are lovely (as are the very beautiful Burmese cats)
