    The person at check in was very nice. The room was basic clean and also nice. They have some…read morebeautiful pools, jacuzzi, lap pools spa and workout room. The cons were the WiFi connection is not strong or consistent but the real downer was going to Jacobs Grill, the bartender pretty much totally ignored us as we walked in for happy hour. We also noticed that the bartender was also the restaurant host and the one who takes the reservations. He was wearing so many hats that we were waiting for an extended period of time for our drinks. Very slow and poor customer service.

    The Oakridge Resort is set a couple of kms from the centre of Wanaka & you would require a car or…read morealternative transport to get to & from the town centre. The hotel has a lovely looking leisure pool & also a lap pool, the former is heated so even in cooler weather it could be nice to take a dip. The studio room that I was allocated was pleasant enough. That said I was disappointed with the extras provided. The toiletries were randomly just shampoo & moisturiser. There was no pen or paper provided either which is usually a given in a hotel of this standard. I had an issue with my shower cubicle not draining the water away very efficiently & found the bathroom floor had become somewhat of a swimming pool during the short shower I took. I reported the problem to reception as a mop to soak up the mini lake would have been useful. Sadly no one ever materialised so I had to use all available towels to address the problem. The wifi was very disappointing & generally worked better outdoors than in my room. I felt that $22 for the continental breakfast was a very steep price as the choice was quite limited. I was very glad that I hadn't paid the extra money for the hot breakfast as this appeared to consist of just 5 items. Personally I wouldn't stay here again as the location is not great & possibly accommodation that is better value for money exists closer to the town.
