The South Island provided the final stepping-stone for the Antarctic expeditions of early explorers. The carefully curated pieces within this room hark back to the days when determined men set off on journeys that pushed them to their limits and sometimes, tragically, beyond.
Your stay includes a complimentary light continental breakfast.
- 36m2 Suite First Floor
Nowadays you can still test yourself on the local mountain bike trails, the alps to ocean track or the various ski fields and surf beaches of the region. And, at the end of your adventure, optimal comfort and relaxation is waiting here in this room. This luxurious suite comes with all the mod cons, finer touches and wondrous memorabilia we’re so proud of. You don’t need to go to the ends of the earth for lavish design and deluxe comfort. It’s all here in the Antarctic Explorer Suite, with its flexability to be combined with the adjoining “Music Room” to create a private family sized set of suites.

The rooms are beautifully appointed, each one different, with quirky but quality decor and fixtures. The bed and linens are excellent, the sofa was a nice leather, the bathroom roomy and sparkling.

Everything from the welcoming on arrival, the stay, the location, the cleanliness, the breakfast, the decor - all was 5 - Star quality!!! And the cost was more than reasonable. Would highly recommend to any and all visiting the area.

Great location in a lovely old building. Hosts were very friendly. Decor is wonderful and very fitting for Oamaru. Our room was decked out with old rowing gear and interesting photos and there’s a great collection of memorabilia in the foyer and hallway. Bed was very comfortable with beautiful linen and the room was spotless. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Cool, funky, quirky and fabulous... Recently refurbed it is an eccentric modern hotel set in a great building... Each room has a different fun theme but isn’t over done. First class all round with exceptional service to boot. Well done.
