Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We had our wedding at Stoneridge Estate and also stayed at the accommodation for 3 nights. The setting was absolutely magical and the service from staff was to a high standard. The food that was served at our wedding was exceptional and paired wines were also tasty. The rooms were also very nice. We would recommend staying at Stoneridge Estate and getting married here to anyone.

I have booked Stoneridge Estate just based on Google reviews for our wedding ceremony and reception. At first I was anxious as I have never seen the venue nor have I been to Queenstown. The communication provided by Suzanne has been seamless and stress free. They are prompt in responding and assisting in planning our wedding. Suzanne has been very kind and patient and very thorough! This made the planning from overseas so easy. Flowers: Flower Room Queenstown did our flowers and it was AMAZING. My dream flower bouquet. It was dreamy, whimsical and everything I ever wanted. I wish I had my flowers set in resin to preserve them. Cake: our guests raved about our wedding cake by Sophie Rosseana. The guests have never had a wedding cake this good! We had a chocolate Baileys cake and a cookies and cream cake. It was delicious! We are our cake for the next two days after the wedding and we are not complaning. Limosene: our driver Steven was polite and was punctual. Ceremony: our ceremony space was held in the garden. It was all well set up for the guests with a beautiful view of Lake Hayes in the background. Wedding Coordinator: we met up with Sue a day prior to the wedding. She helped us practice from where the bride will be going down from the wedding vehicle all the way from how the bride will hold hands with her father. On the day of the wedding, she came over to help us calm down and give us some positive energy. She talked to myself and my sister on how to smile and hold our bouquets. We were running late from the runsheet scehdule but Sue has never rushed us. She was always smiling and let us take our time. Thank you Sue 😭 Reception: we arrived at our reception and it was beautiful! the staff of Stoneridge has set up all the stationary and seating arrangements perfectly Canapes/ Dinner: our guests have been raving about how delicious and high quality the food was all the guests are also raving about how good the wine was! Photographer: our photographer Sadhbh from Alpine Image Co was so easy to work with and made us really comfortable as myself and my husband are not really models that could pose. Our photos (so far highlights) look so good and candid and really captured the moment. DJ: Paul made sure to play all our requested songs and played songs that would suit the vibe! Our guests had fun dancing the night away and had to swap heels to just barefeet dancing to carry on through the night. overnight stay at Stoneridge: our room was clean and comfortable. The next day, we were greeted by a nice breakfast by the chef. it was delicious and we were sad that it was over. Thank you so so much Stoneridge for making our dream wedding come true. -Steph & Sunny

The Stoneridge team made our wedding dreams come to life! Sue, our wedding coordinator was super helpful, quirky and simply wonderful. Thomas initially showed us around in January 2023 and made it a no-brainer for us to hold our big day at this stunning venue. London and Suzanne had immense patience with our correspondence back and forth is so appreciated. Wayne, the owner was tremendously kind and considerate. Our celebrant Catherine was an absolute storyteller. Evidently seasoned and flawless. Our MUA Paige and hairstylist Claire were so accommodating and patient. The flowers from The Flower Room were dreamy and totally exceeded our vision. Our DJ Paul was legendary and thoughtful. The staff at the Reception were efficient and receptive. Our photographer Jen from Alpine Image Co was an absolute ball to work with - so much good energy and assertion! The cake from Sophie Roseanna was absolutely marvellous and everyone devoured it! We are eternally grateful for Stoneridge, thank you. You are forever etched in our hearts.

Just spent 2 nights at this beautiful place for an annual reunion with friends. Stayed in The Milford Suite in The Retreat. Best suite we have ever stayed in… spacious, outstanding views over Lake Hayes and out to Coronet Peak, excellent in room amenities. Excellent breakfast is included, as is a cheese platter with wine each afternoon. Gardens are wonderful, staff exceptionally helpful, friendly and welcoming. Great place for celebrating a special occasion. 15 mins from Queenstown airport and lots of great dinning options within 15 mins drive. We loved every minute here.

I can't speak more highly of Stoneridge Estate and the amazing staff that make Stoneridge worth every penny. The stunning outlook from the rooms, the beautiful decor within, the spectacular architecture, the beautiful food and wine and we always make it back for the cheese board and wine at the end of the day. Most of all the staff are amazing!! So friendly and exceptionally helpful.. you can't fault anything and that's why we keep going back.

I want to say a big thank you to Suzanne for all of her help and support with our wedding ceremony organisation. All the vendors she organised to us were really nice, professional and helpful people. They were wedding celebrant, florist, photographer, hair and make up artist, wedding co-ordinator, etc. We definitely had a unforgettable day!!

We spent two nights at The Stoneridge with our family for our small wedding. During this time we occupied the entire lodge. The beauty of this property and its surroundings are even more striking in person. We enjoyed the high quality of the rooms; lovely bedding, linens, furnishings and decor. It was a luxurious touch to have included in our stay a complementary minibar, wine and cheeseboard plus turndown service. The staff were incredibly warm and kind, taking the time to chat and it felt like nothing was a bother to them. The chefs who made our daily breakfast did a fantastic job and there were a great variety of choices for all. We highly enjoyed every moment of our stay and our special day at The Stoneridge. We will be back!!!

We had been travelling in New Zealand for 6 weeks before we stayed at Stoneridge Retreat. It was the reset we really needed. We stayed for four nights in the retreat section. We had such an amazing stay and wish we could have stayed longer. The views from our window and balcony of the valley and mountains were incredible. It was a truly special way to wake up in the morning. The room was very spacious, extremely well designed and very comfortable. We made full use of the pool and sauna. Which was a very nice way to end the day. But what really made the stay was the service staff and little touches. We loved having the cheese platter in the afternoon every day. All the staff were extremely helpful and polite throughout our stay. In particular Suzanne was amazing and made our stay perfect. We were travelling with our 5 month old daughter and she made the whole experience a delight. From arranging our wine tour. To sorting out our massage packages (I would highly recommend this if you have the time). To sorting out our trust the chef experience. As well as all our other needs. Like having a baby cot already set up in our room. It made our stay from start to finish so enjoyable and completely stress free. No request seemed to small for her and she responded to our emails quickly and efficiently. The other person we wanted to mention was Rebecca who was our sommelier and server when we had our trust the chef experience. She is extremely knowledgeable about the wine pairings for our courses. She is also such a lovely person. She made the dinner such a special and a truly enjoyable experience. Due to her and the food being delicious. We decided to do another two nights of the chef experience. In short we had an amazingly stay at Stoneridge. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful and that mixed with the views and Stoneridge itself made for a truly special four days. We will definitely be coming back.
