What a wonderful place to stay- more like a home than a hotel. David and Wendy were terrific hosts. Excellent soy latte and perfect poached eggs on sourdough for breakfast. We also availed ourselves of the hot tub which takes a while to prepare, but is amazing to sit out on a cool evening and watch the spectacular lightshow of the Remarkables at sunset. Would definitely return!

This was our second stay at this property whilst on honeymoon. Once again, we were the only guests in the lodge. Service as previous was excellent and the breakfast was excellent also. We did use the hot tub in this instance which was nice but requires some notice and we thought it was a bit pricey at $80.

It was a memorable stay for a memorable occasion. We were the only guests in the lodge at the time and this made it extra special. We subsequently decided to stay 3 more nights at the end of the trip. Breakfast was fantastic. Hosts were very pleasant and responsive.

We took a bit of a chance on staying slightly further out of the town, and in a boutique lodge. It paid off, the stay was incredible. Staff were wonderful, informative, helpful and efficient. The views and location were world class. We enjoyed everything about the Hidden Lodge. Thanks for having us!!

Staff member negligence results in accident
I booked this picturesque location for my solo holiday and ended up spending the whole holiday in hospital or in bed with a broken foot due to an accident that happened due to the negligence of the hotel. The stairs to my hotel room were unlit on my second night and I fell down the last few stairs and broke my foot. Not only that, the only staff member on duty was drinking a beer and making banana bread in the kitchen rather than ensuring that the hotel was adequately lit for the evening and ensuring the safety of guests. I wanted so much to give this hotel a great rating, but I cannot, as not only did this happen to ruin the holiday, but the hotel management refused to take any responsibility for their negligence. If this were a bigger hotel chain, this would have been handled immediately. Instead I have been out of pockets thousands of dollars in medical expenses and didn't have a holiday at all. This is a good lesson to not book a small private hotel, because the after-care is just not professional.

Hidden Lodge too good to remain "hidden"......
I had the most amazing experience. Outstanding customer service from Claudia, Chris, Laura, Lisa, and Kristen. From the time I booked to my arrival was first class. Its the little things and attention to detail that make a stay memorable and I will definitely return and bring friends next time. Hot towel rack in the bathroom, electric blankets, complimentary snacks and drinks in your room, hot breakfast with eggs cooked to order. Fresh made yogurt with granola, fresh fruit was awesome as well. The view from my room could have been mistaken for a postcard. I'll be back!!!

Disliked: Amenities
My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and we were welcomed with prolonged talking on arrival. We just wanted to get our rooms but instead got an extended tour/talk. We enjoyed elements of our stay such as the wonderful Lisa who always had a smile on her face and seemed genuinely keen to help. The beautiful brownies, antipasto platters, stocked mini bar fridge (except one of the bottles of beer was expired - yes I double checked to make sure I wasn't looking at the manufacturing date) and yummy breakfasts. There is a key problem with the business model of Hidden Lodge. Having the single staff member that is rostered on (or at times 2) be the front office, chef, gardener,cleaner etc. The look of being completely worn out was written all over their faces, and it made it hard for us to fully relax and ask for things we needed. This would not be a problem at other hotels, as the staff would be there 24/7 to assist. The second issue we had was the lack of basic amenities you expect in any accommodation, i.e. a microwave. You cannot heat any food up by yourself without the help of the staff. They also lock the microwave at night, so on my honeymoon, while paying prices reflective of a 5 star service, I had to use the oven to heat up my food myself. Additionally, the assistant manager Chris while friendly and mostly willing to help, sometimes had a tone which was not always professional, and it appeared the standard of service at the start of our stay quickly dwindled.
