Stafff welcoming and very helpful. Room clean, kitchen facilities good, didn't need to use the laundry. Perfect location in city, very close to wharf / waterfront, boat trips, sky gondola & luge, ice bar, restaurants, shopping and bus's. Great value for money.

Staff is super friendly. I stayed in a private room for 1 person, it had all I needed: spacious bed, private bathroom, a mini fridge and coffee! The location is perfect, walking distance from all restaurants and just in front of the lake. Good thing they have elevators! Being on a 3rd floor and no elevator would’ve been painful Definitely a place to stay!

Best location in Queenstown by far! Fantastic family room and great kitchen. Cleaning staff were super friendly. Front staff were very unfriendly - hardly said hello and definitely didn’t want to be there… just holiday workers I believe so didn’t care at all about customer service! They need to up their game on customer service!

This ain’t the Grand Hyatt, you’re not going find a mint under your pillow, Friday and Saturday nights it can get a bit raucous outside, inside the guests were very well behaved. But clean, functional and a tremendous value , with excellent kitchen facilities, and the best location in Queenstown.

We reserved the private room for 3 and it was fantastic. Property is located in the middle of everything! The kitchen is well equipped and very nice although a bit crowded at times. Laundry was the most expensive we found in our travels but we were in the heart of Queenstown so I guess that should be expected.
