Emil and Hei were brilliant from the very start. We arrived thinking that we were at someone's house and not a B&B but little did we know this was going to be the greatest B&B ever stayed in. The suites are excellent with all the mod cons and a 5 Star deluxe standard. Central music system, great bathrooms and towels.... more

This place was definitely one of the best (if not the best) place in 3 weeks touring aroundNZ. It was certainly the cleanest and best-kept. The views were amazing, the rooms wonderful....really can find nothing to complain about. The hosts are professional yet friendly and welcoming and there are so many nice touches - home made chocolates in a small... more

I have just returned from the two week trip to NZ, one of which was in the luxury accommodation which you had blessed me with for entering your competition a while back. I went with my sister who lives in Australia, and has done so for the past 28 years, without ever visiting NZ until now. Thanks to you, I... more

Chalet Eiger was the best experience we had in New Zealand. Emil and Hea Min were outstanding hosts--they not only helped us navigate our way through the sights of New Zealand, they also took great care of us. Their home is gorgeous. It has a beautiful view of Lake Taupo and allows you to really enjoy the serene country side.... more

We were lucky enough to stay for four nights at Chalet Eiger on our month long trip round NZ and they were fabulouse.

The rooms are modern, immaculately clean, superbly comfortable and with... more
