Must book a room with Mountain View. The view is amazing. Room is much spacious than I expected. Clean & Neat. All the staffs (including the cleaners) are super friendly and helpful. I am glad that I decided to stay with Hermitage Hotel. Unforgettable experience and highlight of my NZ trip.

Excellent location for all Mt Cook related activities. The room was spacious, and the view of the mountain incredible. We had a snowstorm overnight and staff were incredibly helpful with providing us with advice and scrapers to remove the snow. Also the buffet dinner was one of the best I've ever had. So much variety and well worth the expense. Would definitely stay here again.

You need more dining options, laundry service stopping at 5.30pm is unhelpful. But spectacular views, comfy room, buffet dinner was lovely albeit pricey and no alternative.
