One of the most picturesque wine regions in the world, Queenstown, New Zealand, will again play host to the Central Otago Pinot Noir Celebration from the 27th until the 29th of January 2011 - an event that has established itself as a must-do date on the international Pinot Noir calendar.
To celebrate a love of all things 'pinot', the Sofitel Queenstown Hotel & Spa has launched a 'Central Otago Pinot Noir' package for wine lovers visiting the South Island during the event.
Priced from AU$590 per couple (NZ$750) the package includes one-night at the Sofitel Queenstown Hotel & Spa located in the heart of the city with a welcome bottle of Central Otago wine on arrival.
Guests will also enjoy a five-course degustation dinner with matching Central Otago wines to accompany, concluding with a Central Otago cheese and dessert wine.
The offer is available for sale now and for travel between the 21st and 29th of January 2011 (subject to availability). To make a reservation or find out more, email reservations@sofitelqueenstown.com and quote "Pinot Noir Festival"
Motivated by a desire to reinvent and elevate the guest arrival experience, Sofitel Queenstown Hotel & Spa recently completed a $2 million renovation and upgrade. The result is a transformed hotel, featuring a fresh new lobby and lounge with a resplendent reception enclave that invokes both the panache of Paris and warm hospitality inherent to any Queenstown stay.
The hotel's ground level upgrade extends to incorporate a leisure business centre and intimate meeting space and the new Left Bank Café - part French kitchen, part tea room - open for breakfast and lunch in charming Parisian style.
The second phase of the hotel's renovation will conclude in Autumn 2011, revealing a new bar, private club lounge and designer gymnasium. For more information visit www.sofitelqueenstown.com
