The Eastfield Hotel will offer a range of new attractions for both the community and Ashburton’s growing visitor industry – including a range of new dining options, events
centre, onsite gym and other amenities.
Hospitality venues will include a breakfast café orientated perfectly to capture the morning sun,
an all-day dining area with open-display kitchen and a craft beer operation which will open into
the central piazza.
The community will also be able to take advantage of the planned first floor events centre, designed
as an attractive wedding and conference venue to cater to groups of up to 200. Entered by a grand central staircase and overlooking the central piazza, the events centre includes a full-service bar and balcony
area – perfect for any function.
The hotel will also provide a strong connection to the central public piazza, accessible from surrounding streets by a series of laneways, including the hotel’s own dining lane. The piazza will include a series
of retail and food options, to provide an open shared space, sheltered from the elements.
The design of the development has been inspired by the region, particularly in the use of local produce, materials, tones and textures in the series of distinct public areas and will sit comfortably within the Ashburton townscape.
