Great hotel - we were on the last night of a 42 night holiday and thoroughly sick of hotels by the time we got here - however, this was probably the best hotel on our travels - Some nice touches, you are shown to your room in person - they give you a voucher to have a complimentary drink at... more

We stayed there on a late flight in from Sydney before flying the morning to Queenstown. They were great and we were happy. Simple and easy. more

We stayed at the Copthorne due to an early flight back. Our room was a business level suite in a new part of the building. Bed was ultra comfortable with many pillows to choose from.
