Location, location!!! The rooms are a cottage and very cosy. They are not big so storing suitcases out of the way is tricky. Easy stroll to the main shopping strip. The accessible walks/hikes from Settlers is insanely exciting. Thank you Karl for your kind hospitality!!!

Spent two nights here, bracketing a day trip to Milford Sound. Arrowtown is cute, historic (with an extensive and excellent historical museum), small, friendly and intimate community. The cottage we had, two bedrooms (and two en-suite bathrooms!) was comfortable, roomy and we’ll equipped. Great beds and bedding, gardens, very quiet at night. Owner was helpful and outgoing with every inquiry we had. Compared to bustling, modern and impersonal Queenstown it was heaven. NO complaints, relaxed and excellent.
