Onsite Elevated Bar & Restaurant will offer everything from gourmet breakfasts and leisurely brunches to dinner and après-ski experiences, while an intimate library bar is the place to sip malt whisky and world-class wines from the Central Otago region.

Capstone Hotel Management Founder and Managing Director Clare Davies says the property brings a “new era of luxury hospitality amid the secluded beauty of New Zealand’s Southern Alps”.

“Coronet Ridge Resort is a sanctuary where the peace and tranquillity of its location allows guests to enjoy a soul-soothing getaway yet still be minutes away from the excitement of central Queenstown.”

“With Coronet Ridge Resort, we’ve created a haven that honours Queenstown’s status as one of Australasia’s most coveted luxury destinations,” says Davies.

“From our Roman-inspired spa to our state-of-the-art meeting facilities and elevated dining at Elevation Bar & Restaurant, guests will discover everything they desire without needing to leave the property.”

The resort is a 10-minute drive from Coronet Peak ski area and the heart of Queenstown.
