Getaway summary

• 2 nights / 3 days
• Location: Queenstown, Otago
• Accommodation in 5* Hilton Queenstown
• 4h wine tour with Queenstown Wine Trail

Queenstown is arguably one of the best places in New Zealand for foodies. The town boasts excellent restaurants for every budget.

The nearby Gibbston Valley is most famous for its Pinot Noir. The grape thrives in Central Otago’s unique climate where it’s scorching in Summer and freezing in Winter. There’s usually just enough rain to tend to the vines but the area stays mostly dry with a lot of sun. 

These are just a few of the interesting facts you’ll learn on the wine tour with Queenstown Wine Trail. On this intimate tour, you’ll hear a lot more about how Gibbston even became a wine area and how to swoosh and swirl the wine properly before tasting.

You’ll visit three wineries and get to taste 15+ different wines. A tour of the Gibbston Valley Wine Cave is included, too, and you’ll have plenty of time to taste other local delicacies. 

Your Queenstown accommodation

At night, you’ll stay at the 5* Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa. The hotel is beautifully located on Lake Wakatipu on Frankton Arm. It will take you about 15 minutes to Queenstown town centre both by taxi and water taxi. 

The Guest Rooms are enormous and come with a king-size bed or two twin beds. In the seating area, relax in front of a cosy gas fireplace. Moving on to the bathroom, you’ll find a separate shower and bathtub.

The wellness area will have you relaxed in no time! Swim laps in the pool, soak in the spa pool or sweat in the sauna and steam rooms. And for the ultimate relaxation, best book one of the treatments at efoera: spa!

Eating and drinking at Hilton Queenstown

You will love to wine and dine at Wakatipu Grill; a luxurious and romantic experience right on the shores of Lake Wakatipu. After dinner, round off your evening with a glass of regional wine at the Pinot Pit, an outdoor gas fireplace.

In the morning, enjoy a lush breakfast buffet that will offer everything to your heart’s content. 

For more casual dining, there’s a cafe, an Asian restaurant and a pub on the premises.
