Distinction Heritage Gateway Hotel Omarama, Omarama

The hotel had both positive and negative aspects. The rooms were not clean and got warm during the night, but they were spacious and included a parking spot. The service was excellent with a 100% refund offered. The location was convenient but had some dated units. The dining options were good but limited due to pre-paid accommodation. Overall, a mix of pros and cons.

The hotel had a lovely warm and big room with a view, but it was very outdated with 1970s decor. The outside furniture was not worth the money, and it could have been cleaned before reopening.

The hotel is centrally located, making it convenient for travelers. The family unit rooms are in need of a makeover, but they were ready for us upon arrival, albeit basic. Carrying luggage up the stairs was a minor inconvenience. The service was mixed, with some staff being unobliging at the bar while others were nice. The location is ideal for a quick stopover between Wanaka and Christchurch, close to everything you might need and with friendly staff. The dining options were limited, pushing us to eat elsewhere, but the hotel's facilities were satisfactory.

The hotel is conveniently located and spacious but needs some updates. Although it was uncomfortable at times due to noise, the central location allows for easy access to Mount Cook. The dining hours might not suit early travelers, and the service experience was marred by issues regarding payment.

The hotel is conveniently located in the center of Omarama on SH8, close to everything. The rooms were spacious and clean, but lacked attention to detail in some areas. The service was welcoming overall, though some aspects could be improved. The dining options were satisfactory, with a good selection available. The location is central and practical, with easy access to nearby attractions.
