XO Private - The Luxury Travel Collection
The finest online directory for the discerning traveller

Eichardt’s Private Hotel reflects contemporary provincial elegance, its modern features in perfect harmony with distinctive antiques and luxurious furnishings. New Zealand’s renowned interior designer, Virginia Fisher, has carefully fashioned the look of this historic building to incorporate its unrivalled setting.

The spacious suites look out over Lake Wakatipu from their lakefront perch, and watch nature’s drama unfold, yet right outside is the bright buzz of Queenstown’s vibrant café, dining, shopping and nightlife. All suites are generously proportioned and feature a fireplace, a dressing room and an oversized bathroom. The hotel has ample spaces for privacy and quiet, whether that is reading by an open log fire or enjoying a late morning espresso in The House Bar.

Enhance the restorative powers of the mountains with one of the luxurious health and beauty treatments, drift through the valley in a hot air balloon or take a thrilling jet boat ride from the pier in front of the hotel.
