Onsen Hot Pool Queenstown delivers one of the region’s most sought-after relaxation experiences. Tucked into the hillside overlooking the Shotover River canyon, these private cedar-lined hot tubs are the perfect retreat for individuals, couples, or small groups.
Inspired by traditional Japanese bathing, each Onsen Hot Pool Queenstown tub is filled with pure mountain water, heated to a blissful 38.3°C. Whether you’re visiting in the crisp winter or warm summer, you’ll enjoy a serene, rejuvenating soak while gazing over Queenstown’s spectacular alpine scenery.
The experience includes plush towels, a complimentary drink of your choice, and a light snack to enjoy during your soak. It’s an ideal way to unwind after a day of adventure, sightseeing, or skiing in the Southern Alps.
Each hot tub room at Onsen Hot Pool Queenstown is fully private, offering an exclusive and tranquil escape. You can relax undisturbed for your 60-minute session, with the option to retract the wall-to-ceiling window to let in the fresh mountain air and panoramic views.
It’s important to note that this experience is incredibly popular and regularly books out weeks in advance. Early reservations are highly recommended to secure your preferred time slot — this is not one to leave until the last minute.
For safety reasons, children under 5 are not permitted in the pool rooms at any time, and evening sessions are reserved for guests aged 12 and up.
Onsen Hot Pool Queenstown operates year-round, providing a unique way to connect with nature and relax in one of New Zealand’s most iconic landscapes.
