Awesome staff. Love the view, the rooms, and (though surprised at first) the altitude. Also, we had left a backpack by accident for a couple of days...

Well done the Highlanders winning the rugby in Queenstown. The players were so great after chatting to fans for ages after the game. It was great to have Georyann from New Caledonia at Hippo Lodge.
