    If I had to find something to not like, the yard could have been swept. And maybe USB port somewhere, or a plug by a table for charging devices

    The location is spectacular, staff great, breakfast delicious. The room was beautifully decorated, quiet, comfortable, view amazing. We loved it

    From the moment you walked into Eichardt’s you were treated like nothing was a problem for the staff to help you with. The service from all staff was exceptional. The view from the property is sensational.

    Because it is not close to the hotel, services that hotel guests would normally be offered (I have stayed at Eichardt’s main hotel before), were not. The house was not serviced daily, there was no turn down service and no room service available. Normally, I’d rate the lack of these extras as a first world problem, however; at a rate of NZD$2500+ a night, I think it’d be fair to expect what every other hotel guest would be offered. Staff are clearly doing their best but it is clear they are stretched.

    Eichardt’s Residence is a three storey apartment, set away from the hotel. It is beautiful, well appointed, and has a predominantly uninterrupted view of the Remarkables and lake.

    1. The noise from the Attiqa pub was bloody loud that constantly banging the whole room for a good 5 hours from 9-2am. The hotel didn’t mention the location of this room at all either here or on their website. Over $2000 per night to stay opposite a thumping pub, I’d rather put a tent next to the lake!! 2. Seems like their staff members are not that well trained, they’re always in rush. I understand they may have some tasks to do, but aren’t customers important to your hotel? A couple of times they literally shoveled me to the corner on the stairwell!! 3. We told the receptionist that we had a marathon to run on Saturday, and at no time we were informed that there would be a loud wedding goinging on literally next door to our room. They were playing loud music and laughing with kids crying until night. What a night!!! 4. The breakfast menu seems never changed and lacks variety. It was like this at least 3 years ago and still the same. The coffee was yuck. The fact that the breakfast is included doesn’t mean we customers don’t have standards. I personally think it’s illegal to charge more than $2000 for a room with all these tougher! For this price last year, I stayed at the most luxury hotel in London with way way better room, customer service and food! So we surely WON’T be back again, so won’t our friends!

    First of all, it is not clear from the descriptions that the Apartment is not in the main building, in the most central location, but a few hundred meters apart in a separate house. Secondly, the highly praised "Grill" restaurant can not be recommended at all. I ordered a Wagyu steak "medium rare". What i got, was "medium well". I rejected it, and they offered to make a new one. After 20 minutes i got something which was "medium". Meanwhile the side dish was cold. The noise level in the restaurant is so high that one can not talk to each other, one has to shout.

    Location close to the Pier and relatively central to all the shops and restaurants.

    The restaurant needs a massive makeover. There is no special area for hotel guests who have paid a lot of money for a room at this hotel.
