Cottages at Kinross  |  Cabin in Gibbston

We only stayed for one night and wished we’d booked more. The complimentary wine tasting itself is worth staying for. Hot tub, peton and walks around the vine yards were excellent. The individually named rooms are good and well stocked but you can hear noise from next door

The cottage was roomy and gorgeous. Bed was divine. Kitchenette has basic tools for make a simple meal, although the cafe/bar also offers delicious salads, pizza, and platters. The tasting included in your booking is really wonderful. We enjoyed walking around the vineyards and grounds after everyone left in the evening and seeing the sunset on the hills. We were biking, so it was a convenient starting place to the day.

Clean room and comfortable bed and pillows. Lovely bathroom and easy parking. Fantastic experience at their restaurant as it is evident that customer service is a cornerstone of their brand. Delicious wine and would highly recommend scheduling a reservation while there. Only minor inconvenience was not knowing to book a hot tub reservation in advance as only one person or couple can reserve for an hour. Their complimentary tasting occurs directly before check-in cut off time, but I would recommend pushing it by an hour in case a late guest want to participate.

Stayed eight years ago therefore staying again was like coming home - great.

Great place to stay. Thank you!

Lovely place with friendly staff

Unique and gorgeous antiques. Lobby fireplace cozy. Staff was great. Such a beautiful building, grounds, and rooms. Thermal pools were being renovated so they gave us free entry to the Polynesian thermal pools. Wish we could have stayed longer.

We appreciated the location, the accomodation, the service and the wine. All was exceptional and added value to our memorable trip to the South Island.

Beautifully located in the Gibbston Valley, just the right distance from Queenstown to feel away from the commercialism, easy drive to Arrowtown for great restaurants, and close to so many of the amazing vineyard experiences. Even if choosing not to explore and want to stay in to enjoy the comforts of your room, the Kinross experience delivers abundantly... great food onsite at their bistro, the immediately surrounding sights are worthy of slowing down to take in and each room has the perfect park bench situated outside to enjoy a hot morning drink, or wine to watch the evening dip into darkness. The rooms are well appointed, everything needed if you want to cook for yourself, or simply heat something up. They're spacious and comfortable, and the beds are divinely firm & pillowy at the same time. Not cluttered but plenty of places to store and hang. Yes, the drawer layout was back-to-front (stove utensils where the general cutlery should live), but we needed to find something that was wrong! Also, knowing the high probability of guests using the hot tub, some towels specifically for this would have been preferred - suggest packing slip-on footwear for the walk up. For certain the wine tasting experience must not be missed, Diego wends a delicious tale about the wines presented and the local growers that disappoints only because there should be a movie telling the tale! Middle of winter presents no issues, the room was comfortably warm and clearly well insulated.

We absolutely loved our stay at Kinross. This is a beautiful location and well presented cottage. Thank you for making such a memorial experience for us.
