Stay Offers
Six of them. A room, plus something the hotel already does — not a discount dressed up as an event.
01
What these actually are
Each one is a room plus something we already do — a breakfast, a boat, a treatment, a car up a gravel road. There is no minimum stay beyond the nights stated, no membership, and nothing that requires you to set foot in The Ben Lomond Room unless the package says so, and only one of the six does.
Prices are per package for two people unless stated, include GST, and hold until the end of the season they are listed in. They are not available with any other rate. If a package is not right, phone reservations on +64 3 450 2755 and ask for the parts of it you want; we would rather build you something than sell you something.
Best time to take one
| May & June | Quietest of the year. Everything available, and the frost on the terrace is at its best. |
|---|---|
| Jul–Sep | Ski season. Coronet Peak shuttle from the door at 7.40am. Book early. |
| Oct–Nov | Long light, tracks open, nobody about. Our own favourite. |
| Dec–Feb | Busy. Stone fruit, swimming, and the deck full by five. |

Into Skippers Canyon
The same two nights with a car and a driver up the Skippers Road to the old gold workings above the Shotover. Twenty-two kilometres of single-lane gravel cut into the schist, with no barrier on the drop side. Most rental agreements are void on that road, which is exactly why we would rather drive it than have you try.
- Two nights, Frankton Arm Room
- Breakfast for two
- Return transfer up the Skippers Road
- Packed lunch from the kitchen

- Two nights, Frankton Arm Room
- Breakfast for two
- Bathhouse access, both days

- One night, Frankton Arm Room
- Five courses for two
- Breakfast the next morning
- Sunday to Thursday

Package terms
- Prices are per package for two people, include GST, and are subject to availability at the time you ask.
- Packages cannot be combined with each other or with any other rate or discount.
- Free cancellation until 48 hours before arrival. Inside 48 hours the first night is charged.
- Transfers, cruises and treatments included in a package are booked on your behalf and are subject to the operator’s own conditions and to the weather.
- Where a package includes gaming credit, that credit is loaded at reception on arrival. It is not transferable, cannot be exchanged for cash, does not roll over to a later visit, and is not available to anyone under twenty. It is a fixed amount and nothing about the package increases with what you spend.
- Nothing in any package can be gambled with anywhere except The Ben Lomond Room, on site, in person, with photo identification.
A word about the gaming credit
One of the six packages includes NZ$40 for The Ben Lomond Room. It is there because guests ask for it, and it is capped, fixed and small on purpose.
