Top tips for finding the perfect New Zealand hotel

  • If you want the best mix of heritage and nature, Christchurch is the place to be. The stunning gardens and parks and the peaceful Avon River have contributed significantly to giving Christchurch its unofficial title, New Zealand’s garden city. Breakfree On Cashel is a good establishment to stay in when exploring Christchurch. It sits at the center of this grand city with easy access to Hagley Park’s botanical gardens and the Bank’s Peninsula.
  • Welcome history lovers, Dunedin awaits. Different types of heritage buildings are scattered across the city, with the only Larnach Castle in New Zealand found in this city. You’ll also find the Olveston Historic House along with several Victorian houses in this city. Dunedin is also teeming with wildlife, including sea lions and penguins, and the only mainland-breeding colony of Royal Albatross. Staying at the Larnach Lodge will give you the castle experience with 4-star accommodations and a great view of the harbor with easy access to Larnach Castle.
  • Thrill-seekers visiting New Zealand will love visiting Queenstown. This beautiful city is packed with adventure, and where adventure lurks, stunning scenery is always around the corner.

And after an exciting day, relax with some gourmet food and drink or a spa treatment at Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa, a leading Queenstown hotel offering not only cozy accommodations but also lots of amenities to make your vacation worthwhile.
