Very quiet and nice property. Only suggestion is a better light blocking from the hallway. The light in the hallway can turn on and light up the whole bedroom.

Beautiful views, rooms were great too. Staff are very friendly and helpful. The only negative I can think of is the shower wasnt the cleanest, and the tap on vanity leaks so had to keep mopping it up, but hopefully this is being remedied. The breakfast was fantastic, and heating works reslly well - we were nice and toasty the whole stay :)

Had a wonderful time at the Galaxy boutique hotel. Staff were incredible and service second to none. We go snowed in and everyone was out helping each other to get their cars out and the hotel kept everyone informed of road closures. Thank you for your hospitality!

It was well thought out from a guest perspective. Great views including a bedroom skylight with an electronic cover. The plumbing fixtures were top notch, as was the bedding. The free breakfast was excellent. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Best night's stay in NZ so far.
