Personifying sophistication and five-star service, Eichardt’s Private Hotel is an iconic venue for celebrating special occasions.

Eichardt’s accommodates seated or standing formats, intimate gatherings, and specialty events. Choose from a number of sophisticated spaces within the property, each offering a unique way to take in the lake and mountain vistas and central Queenstown location.

The Parlour is the jewel in our crown and the pinnacle of historical elegance. Its very ambience echoes the past, where historical artefacts and period furniture remain for you to use and enjoy. Conjure up a bygone era while experiencing a sophisticated and luxurious venue with an incredible front-row seat to lakefront views.
The Parlour is located in the heritage wing of the hotel, and every aspect of this private and intimate space echoes this history, from its cosy leather sofas and warming fireplace to original artworks.

THE PENTHOUSE
Hosting a private function at the Penthouse by Eichardt’s is an opportunity to deliver an exceptional event from a location very few get to experience. Directly overlooking Lake Wakatipu, the Penthouse offers uninterrupted views of one of the world’s finest backdrops.
The Penthouse is ideal for groups wanting a completely private space that also offers elements of magnificence—the immense waterfront terrace, outdoor kitchen, and floor-to-ceiling windows are just a few elements that make this a truly unique and exceptional venue.
