Cardrona Hotel is New Zealand's most iconic hotel, situated on the spectacular Crown Range Road between Queenstown and Wanaka.
Established in 1863, the Cardrona Hotel is one of the most historic hotels in New Zealand. It’s also the highest and arguably the most iconic. With a cosy and charming atmosphere, great service and a beer garden voted the best in New Zealand, the hotel is a favourite for both locals and tourists.
Our restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner serving a modern take on traditional pub fare, made from the freshest local ingredients. Our extensive wine list has a selection of the best local wines from Central Otago region as well a great range of tap and bottled beers.
With 16 ensuite hotel rooms, the Cardrona Hotel is also the prefect spot for your next holiday or corporate function. A 15 minute drive from Wanaka and 40 minutes from Queenstown, the Hotel is close to all the attractions Central Otago has to offer. Close to five major ski fields, it’s a great choice for a winter getaway (and the apre-ski here is legendary!). Over summer, escape the crowds in Queenstown and Wanaka and enjoy a truly relaxing holiday, while still being close enough to both centres for a spot of shopping or a day out on the lake.
