About Cromwell
Cromwell is one of the most underestimated towns in Central Otago, and I hope it stays that way – for selfish reasons.
You see, I like staying in Cromwell whenever I hop over to spend a holiday on the South Island. Cromwell is so centrally located that it amazes me the place does not get more tourists staying there. Everyone just seems to stop to take a photo of the large fruits (an iconic piece of art along highway 8B) and then drive on to wherever they’re headed, mostly Queenstown or Wanaka.
Cromwell is a short 20-minute drive from Alexandra (offers nice autumn colors and has a KFC), a 20-minute drive from Wanaka (a town with some of the highest petrol prices in the Southern Lakes region; it is best to fill your tank in Cromwell or Queenstown), and a 40-minute drive from Queenstown (the mecca for activities of all sorts, a busy place, but still one of my favorite places to visit). And within an hour you can be at Lindis Pass.
Cromwell is not only centrally located, but it has almost everything a small town that caters to visitors should have: Three petrol stations, one large New World supermarket, and a small shopping center.
So if you decide to go to Central Otago or the Southern Lakes region, please do not stay in Cromwell, because it’s mine.
All kidding aside, in 4 South Island motels I have stayed at multiple times I’ve shared the names of two motels in Cromwell I’ve regularly stayed at.
