Can’t think of anything

Wow! This place is absolutely beautiful! Loved everything!!

Exceptional staff, comfort, cleanliness and views.

An exceptional boutique stay with breathtaking views over Lake Hayes and Coronet. The estate is peaceful, beautifully maintained and perfect for a romantic getaway. The warm, personalised hospitality from Daniel and the team made us feel genuinely welcome, while the gourmet breakfast and elegant surroundings exceeded our expectations. Conveniently located close to Queenstown and Arrowtown, yet wonderfully private and tranquil. A truly memorable experience, we will happily return.

Great view and design. Lovely staffs with great service

This is the most amazing place I have ever stayed ! I have nothing bad to say. We were upgraded and everyone was so classy and professional and we felt so looked after. The food was delicious and the place was spectacular, we will be returning this place is like a fairy tale !! Thank you so much

Great staff, always happy to help! The estate is stunning and such a cool history! Loved the complimentary extras like the breakfast, cheese platters and wine as well as snacks and non-alcoholic beverages! Such a nice touch! Very accommodating especially for gluten free!

The only complaint we had was the pillows weren’t very comfortable.

The open spaces, comfy bed, excellent staff, and the Pinot noir wine yummy. 5 course degustation dinner was beautiful. The little touch in the afternoon with cheese and wine delivered in the afternoon was amazing. Thanks for a memorable stay

Very friendly staff and brilliant view

The wine for the local vineyard is absolutely not our taste (we are from Germany, Rheingau, Riesling Region)

Lovely premises, close to nearby wineries and attractions. Staff were very helpful. Room was clean, tidy and comfortable. Breakfast was fresh, prepared quickly and very nice

The property is grossly overpriced for what you get. The price to stay one night, for nothing more than a bed and breakfast was unjust. There was a wedding on, which is the main purpose of the venue, but with no advance warning of it, and it being clearly audible throughout the entire building til the wee hours (which weddings are entitled to do), there should have been an adjustment of price, warning of such, or reimbursement after. There have been no acoustic modifications made to counter the very noticeable road noise, even with the doors closed, or the other events on at the venue. Had the price been $400 this review is not being written. But at double that, one has the right to expect a lot more.

Amazing location and property just stunning outlook . Service levels were excellent and meals all high quality .

Absolutely stunning location -unbeatable. Facilities and service were also excellent. We loved our stay.

Nothing.

The property has absolutely beautiful grounds, gorgeous accommodation and lovely staff. They also have spectacular views of the lake and surrounding mountains. We opted to have the candle lit dinner on our stay which was yum and they breakfast included was excellent. They also have a hot tub you can book and a complimentary cheese board in check in which was a fun surprise! The staff were excellent and very helpful.

Excellent location, stunning views, excellent breakfast and amazingly helpful staff

I loved everything

Views and the architecture

Road noise from highway below

Quality buildings and finish

Isolated feel when in retreat suite, essentially you stay in a room (1 of 6) in a very large, empty house, about 100 m from the main lodge. A feeling of disconnection as there are almost no staff, we saw one on the evening and 2 at breakfast, no true reception so lack of service feel, staff people, etc

Stoneridge Estate exceeded every single expectation. The property is beautiful, overlooking a vineyard, the lake, and the mountains that paint the skyline. The Arrow room is the most beautiful hotel room I have ever had the pleasure of staying in - it was a room straight out of my dreams! The staff, especially Daniel, were extremely kind and went out of their way to insure we had the best stay possible. I will think about this stay often and hope to return in the future.

Nothing - it was perfect.

This is an absolutely stunning property. The attention to detail, the view, and the staff were all incredible - would come back in a heartbeat.

The estate itself and the staff are perfect, special thanks to Daniel who is really a master of all trades!

No restaurant in the estate, and sometimes it would have been nice to see more staff on site.

Venue itself was delightful with amazing grounds and facilitiies. Breakfast and staff service were outstanding.

A little tricky to get to but a great location none the less with other regional highlights nearby - if you have transport!

Gorgeous!!!

Details beautiful!

All god especially the architecture. !!

That it was not possible to get a dinner..! But the service was good and luckely we could find a good wine ..! Thanks!!

Die Lage am See war super und das Personal war auch sehr zuvorkommend. Leider durften wir das gym in der gebuchten Kategorie nicht nützen, was bei dem Zimmerpreis nicht wirklich nachvollziehbar ist. Das Preis Leistungsverhältnis stimmt nur bedingt.

The breakfast was good and staff very helpful.

I found the photos on the website to be misleading as the hotel is presented as being in a large isolated property whereas it is actually on a hillside with other buildings not far from a main road. For me this is not a 5 star property as advertised, rather 4 star.

The unique details and design were absolutely amazing, definitely a place that is eye catching with details

Everything was perfect, nothing to dislike!

The facilities, layout, environment, and service were all satisfactory. It was an unforgettable experience during our honeymoon trip.

The whole stay was exceptional - the location is amazing, and the views from every room are just SPECTACULAR. On top of that, Stoneridge has beautiful rooms, very friendly staff who gave incredible service and went out of their way to help, delicious and generous breakfast.

I can't think of anything.

Wonderful property. It’s just absolute combination of luxury and nature. The view was just incredible!

Everything.....the place itself is one of the nicest places we've stayed in the world. Large luxurious rooms, amazing food and wine, a view to die for and exceptional service.....and that pool at the retreat❤️

Nothing - absolutely divine

This place is absolutely stunning. The rooms are so well thought out, the staff lovely, food amazing and the views are unreal!

Pool should be heated.

Beautiful, clean, extremely comfortable. Such great value for money

Nothing

The cheese n wine board as a welcome, the spacious room, the view and the superb breakfast were all excellent, but the staffs helpfulness and friendliness were the highlight.

The fact that they only offered a five course meal for dinner, so we had to venture out to get dinner.

Everything! 10/10

Sensational location overlooking lake Hayes, only a short drive from Queenstown. The restaurant served a delicious meal, and breakfast daily. The room was luxury, great bed and pillows, huge bathroom with bath and shower. Great selection of complimentary snacks and cheese platter daily.

Nothing

Stoneridge Estate is truly a magical and unforgettable luxury escape just outside Queenstown; from the moment you arrive, the magnificent schist rock architecture makes you feel like you've stepped into a grand European château, perfectly framed by the absolutely stunning panoramic views of Lake Hayes and the Southern Alps—honestly, the setting is breathtaking from every angle. The accommodation itself is pure five-star indulgence, but what truly elevated my experience was the impeccable, service, especially from Daniel, who was wonderfully professional. Stoneridge Estate is simply the best choice for anyone looking for supreme comfort, tranquility, and unparalleled beauty in Queenstown, and I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Luxurious getaway with all the bells and whistles! Staff, particularly Daniel, were fantastic. Enjoyed their professional yet relaxed approach which enhanced the vibe. The views were exceptional. Highly recommend the Trust the Chef with the wine paring.

The views were stunning. Staff were great, and the food was exceptional

One day we didn’t get the turn down service that was offered, This resulted in a food being left in the room for over 24 hours.

Absolutely incredible stay with wonderful staff and the property grounds are beautiful.

Nothing at all

Large spacious bathroom with 2 sinks. A full body mirror. Magnificent views. Excellent customer service.

Nothing.

The staff were very accommodating and extremely dedicated to their work

N/A

Location is stunning and staff are attentive and accomodating. These two things made our stay an enjoyable experience.

As a wedding venue I would have preferred to be in a room away from the events/party. We were offered an upgrade before arrival but it seemed a bit expensive given the lack of typical holiday venue facilities and with no context on the location of rooms, so we chose to keep our original room. The room, while spotless and well appointed, was musty and the smell could be quite intense.

An amazing place to stay to end a week long road trip around Otago and Southland. Stunning views from every vantage point and the staff were all amazing as well. Would definitely stay again in the future.

Fantastic big rooms, incredible view and great facilities

Nothing - it was all amazing!

工作人员服务态度非常好！餐食也很美味！晚上的套餐量很大，会吃的很充实而且价格也很合适。每天下午的芝士盘和红酒也很棒，这次南岛旅行中住过最好体验的酒店！一定会再来的！

Amazing accommodation, food and care, stunning views of the lake and mountains, ideal location for both the coronet/remarks and Cardrona. Thank you, team!

Call before booking as listed amenities are erroneous. On a loud highway, no room service, dinner requires 24-48hrs advance reservation, pool is tiny (the photo on Expedia does not look like the hotel pool, nor the hotel (???)), can't use the gym unless you've booked certain rooms, which weren't available. Room was clean but tired and beds not great. Bathroom was freezing. Limited staff - often had to walk around to find someone. I asked to cancel the reservation (denied) and overheard manager to tell desk reception that she couldn't talk for 30 minutes and then she left for the day. On the plus side, breakfast was very good and the poor guy manning the front desk AND serving/cleaning up breakfast was excellent. (Painful) lesson learned.

Cosy lodging. Peaceful . Close to Queenstown and surrounding places of interest

Great view, nice facility, close to amenities.

The young man who checked us in was great although I couldn’t help but think they were very understaffed, he was trying to do his best. Check in was very disorganized , no working eftpos machine and the room we booked wasn’t what we received. With no offer of remuneration for the mistake. Breakfast was very slow considering there were only 4 to cook for. Not something you’d expect from a $1000 a night hotel.

Great place and great staff

Fantastic staff and stunning property and views.

Had a beautiful stay at Stoneridge! The lodge itself is in a beautiful location. Service was second to none. We will absolutely be back again.

Almost everything about the property was excellent. Great check in and the rooms were lovely. The only concerning thing was that we were in the Retreat Suite and at around 830 in the morning the groundskeeper walked across the outside window of our room to use the hose. The windows are floor to ceiling and you can see into the rooms even when the blinds are down. We were half dressed. I feel this is an extreme invasion of privacy and I wouldn’t expect this type of act at a five star property. He walked across again around 11 even though we had a late check out at noon. When there are guests staying in that room, I would recommend that there isn’t any activity near those windows in the morning hours as there could be people in different states of undress as they get ready to check out.

Stoneridge Estate is my favourite accomodation I've ever stayed in. The rooms and facilities were amazing. Being out at Lake Hayes and away from the hustle and bustle of Queenstown was so relaxing. Wineries, Arrowtown, Ayrburn, Frankton Arm are all a quick drive away. The hot tub was great and the wine/cheeseboard each evening was a lovely addition. My partner and I enjoyed simply walking around the estate and looking at all the beautiful autumn colours. And the breakfast and coffee each morning was fantastic!

Everything

The room was amazing, the views were incredible, the service was lovely

Great building. Excellent hospitality. A great stay

Great staff and design; superb view; food is quite decent as well

A truly delightful experience. The lodge was quiet with beautiful grounds and building. Excellent service and wonderful good! Thank you!
