Located a very short distance from the airport is the Hilton bid you haven't organised a rental vehicle expect to pay almost $30 to be taken by taxi or shuttle here. The room I had was a deluxe lake view. It comprises two small rooms and a bathroom. It was clean and tidy but had a but if a tired feel to it, is: the carpet had ripples in it. The bathroom was generous for two people with both a large walk in shower and deep bath, two basins.
Breakfast at the restaurant is appealing with both continental and cooked foods.
There is a water taxi that picks you up outside the restaurant and will take you to the CBD for $5 each. It comes every hour with extra hours over the weekend. If you aren't worried about a 15 MN walk you can cross the Walk bridge and be at the Frankton bus station where you can get to Arrowtown or the CBD for $4 pp. Directly across from the station and over the sports field is the Frankton shopping district. There are 2 supermarkets, eateries, clothes shops, Kmart.
Highly recommend the Walter peak station lunch excursion, and the trip to Doubtful sounds or Milford is a whole day out, but really magical.
A walk around the town garden is short and enjoyable.
