Top Golden Downs Hotel Reviews

Richmond Motel & Holiday Park

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly helpful staff. Comfortable rooms."

Alpine Lodge

8/10 Good

"I love staying here! It's such a beautiful surrounding. The restaurant is fantastic and restaurant staff are welcoming. I got to have a lazy breakfast which they kindly adapted to keto for me and had a cozy morning reading with great coffee and a cozy open fireplace. The cozy, warm room, electric blanket were wonderful. I also adore the grounds with a beautiful outdoor area and stream running through native trees. The birdsong was fantastic."

Stargazer's Cabin

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at Stargazers Cabin. It was very warm on some cold nights and morning very neat and tidy. Bathroom was neat and tidy, good pressure in the shower. Kitchen has everything you need, lounge was comfy and so was the bed. David and Tammy were good communicators, check in and out was super easy. Would 100% recommend and will definitely book again next time we’re up around Nelson Lakes."

Coastal Calm | Luxe Stay with Views, Bath & Fire.

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay at Pohutukawa Farm. Pet friendly, though not fully enclosed but our wee dog loved it. Beautiful views, comfortable bedding, good kitchen facilities. Loved the outdoor bath under the stars. Would love to come back again. "

Sunny, Private Cottage in St Arnaud

8/10 Good

"St Arnaud is a lovely location and the property is also conveniently located. The property is comfortable enough but is neither fish nor fowl. It is better than a basic kiwi bach but not really up to the standard of a holiday home. It seems a bit expensive for what it is - I found the dirty windows, cobwebs and threadbare carpet a bit too rustic. The house needs some maintenance. "
