"Visitors to New Zealand might find themselves (understandably) eager to get out of town and into the wild — the success of the small-lodge phenomenon is proof of that. But Queenstown is no ordinary town. It may feel urban by comparison with the rest of New Zealand, but its location on the shores of Lake Wakatipu, surrounded by mountain peaks, makes it a four-season adventure destination. Which probably has something to do with why the Hotel St. Moritz feels like equal parts alpine lodge and city boutique." - Tablet Hotels
