What You’ll Love…
The Hotel — Possibly Queenstown’s best-kept secret…
Tucked away behind the grey-stone grandeur of St. Peter’s spire — the inspiration behind the hotel’s name — hidden on a discreet, Melbourne-style laneway and framed by world-class restaurants, The Spire Hotel Queenstown is possibly the city’s best-kept secret.
Those lucky enough to find this hidden gem and its unassuming, somewhat concealed entrance, will be transported to a world of understated luxury. From the exclusive 10 suites to the dark-stained timber finishes and 16-seat gourmet restaurant, No5 Church Lane, The Spire Hotel Queenstown offers a stay that is refreshingly intimate, with service that feels truly bespoke.
The Location — The perfect position in Queenstown
Enjoy a privileged location within a two-minute walk of glittering Lake Wakatipu. Discover some of the city’s fine dining at your doorstep; the Botswana Butchery, where you must book months in advance, and the world-renowned Fergburger, a burger joint open 21 hours a day, are both under five minutes’ walk away.
As for adventure, it doesn’t get much better than this: the Skyline Gondola is within a 10-minute walk, Glenorchy’s Middle Earth-worthy hikes are a 45-minute drive away, the lift line of Coronet Peak and The Remarkables are under 40 minutes’ drive and Otago vineyards less than a 20-minute drive.
The Suite — Five-star sophistication and relaxation
Sink into the calm of designer comfort in your private Suite, featuring a bold red-white-black colour palette and elegant furnishings: a king bed, leather recliner and chaise with a snug blanket, and a private balcony with city or garden views.
The ultimate reprieve from the chilly Queenstown winters, this boutique haven invites you to enjoy 65sqm of space, get cosy in front of the stone-clad fireplace and enjoy a luxuriously late 1pm checkout on your final day, subject to availability.
Food & Drinks — Daily à la carte breakfast, one daily drink per adult and NZ$50 food and drink credit per suite
Enjoy a dining experience that ranks amid the best in Queenstown at No5 Church Lane. Seating just 16 guests, this acclaimed restaurant will treat you to a decadent affair every morning with à la carte breakfast options such as ANZAC biscuit porridge with grilled banana and No5 Big Breakfast with eggs cooked to your liking, Havoc bacon, mushrooms, slow-roasted tomato, sausage and potato rosti.
Return to the restaurant’s understated elegance — we recommend snagging a seat by the fireplace — and enjoy your choice of one daily glass of wine, beer or soft drink per person.
Why not treat yourself to a dinner of sharing dishes with your NZ$50 food and drink credit? Dishes could include crispy-fried banana blossoms drizzled with fermented hot sauce and vegan aioli, torched soy-marinated salmon and smoked fish pie with wild watercress oil.
Can’t decide? Let Head Chef Trent Watson lead you through a culinary experience of award-winning dishes, featuring a canapé, entrée, main, side and dessert for just NZ$55 per person (additional costs apply).
Longer stay bonus: Stay five or seven nights and you’ll receive NZ$100 food and drink credit per suite to spend at the acclaimed restaurant.
See & Do — The best of the city is on your doorstep
Secreted away amid a maze of Melbourne-style laneways, lined with restaurants and drinking dens, The Spire Hotel Queenstown places you in the heart of Queenstown’s cosmopolitan hub. Set just back from the glittering waters of Lake Wakatipu, a short walk from the marina, this five-star retreat is your gateway to the likes of Ivy & Lola’s restaurant and Queenstown Bay Beach.
The Remarkables and Coronet Peak are a 30-minute drive away and the gravity-fuelled Skyline Luge is a short four-minute drive. Here, you can ride a cart around 800m of banked corners, tunnels and dippers… before hopping on a chairlift and doing it all again.
Drive to Glenorchy and immerse yourself in Middle Earth magic with several world-famous hikes including Routeburn Track, one of New Zealand’s Great Walks. For a change of pace, explore Arrow Town’s historic settlement, wandering past restored cottages and gold-mining sites along the river.
For a full-day experience, the majestic Milford Sound is undeniably one of the South Island’s greatest sites. And then there’s the vine-laced hills of Gibbston Valley’s nearby wine country… Trust us, you won’t run out of things to do!
