It will be the third hotel to open in the Wakatipu Basin in the space of a month, following the 41-room Quest Queenstown at Frankton's Remarkables Park in November, and the 182-room Holiday Inn, also at Remarkables Park, on Monday.

Sudima Hotels New Zealand chief operating officer Les Morgan was realistic about what the next year might look like for the 4.5-star hotel, saying they would operate “leanly” until the border opened up again. Read more here.
