The Victorian exterior of Hulbert House is traditional, but the fantastic bright and bold colours of the interior are anything but!
Hulbert House is a beautifully restored Victorian villa dating back to 1888. Steeped in history, the property’s combination of historic elegance and contemporary service creates a luxury, boutique accommodation experience. Situated close to Queenstown’s vibrant central city, Hulbert House is imbued with a sense of serenity.


Each of Hulbert House’s five Premium Rooms and the one Grand Room have their own independent character, and each is named after a prominent individual in Hulbert House’s history. Period details have been retained and further enhanced with the use of bold English wallpapers and a custom milled carpet was commissioned from New Zealand wool with the design inspired by willow pattern china. A judicious combination of patterned textiles have added further zing, while large scale French antiques and chandeliers ensure a pervading sense of opulence.
On a fine evening, be sure not to miss pre dinner drinks and canapes on Hulbert's deck with views over Lake Wakatipu.

many many many thanks!!!!!!"

Planning a 7 week trip is daunting enough without the complications of COVID cancellations, rebookings, and closures. Yet every connection, every transportation detail, every accommodation, every meal, everything was flawless.
We can't thank Southern Crossings enough for making this trip all, and more, than we had imagined. You allowed us to see the best of your countries: the people, the beauty, the culture. Five stars, a blue ribbon, and a gold medal to everyone at Southern Crossings!"
