Travel and Luxury

Art-filled rooms, whimsical furniture and an electric colour palette lens The Central a surreal air straight out of Lewis Carroll. This is design through the looking glass, imbuing this late-2020 arrival with a unique twist in rustic Queenstown. Based in Singapore, Naumi Hotels is synonymous with imaginative properties, and this one is studded with quirky details, from the glossy green reception area to its kaleidoscopic lounge complete with a roaring fire. The 15 rooms feature trippy headboard art by local artist Deborah Moss- multihued abstractions that fill a large wall. Habitat rooms have an earthy hue and private courtyard, blue-toned Oasis rooms sit among treetops and the Junior Suite glows with an iridescent palette. You’ll likely crave a sugar hit- fixed by the sweet station with nostalgic treats from the lounge.
