Reviews and Ratings
The hotel room was spacious and had a small sink and bench area with a bar fridge to make drinks. Despite being below street level and amidst construction noise, after insisting on a different room, the new space provided a lovely view of the Remarkables and was quiet. Overall, it was like any standard hotel room.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were beautiful, equipped with a jacuzzi that had an integrated TV. It felt like I was in a 3-star hotel. The service was excellent, up to date, although I could sense some nervousness, yet the staff catered to all needs, from a variety of guests with distinctive preferences. The location was cozy, perfect for starting the day before exploring Queenstown. The dining options were substantial and catered to a wide range of appetites. Overall, a comfortable and relaxing experience.

My stay at the hotel was a luxurious sleep that exceeded my expectations. From the welcoming entrance to the delicious breakfast options, it was a great way to start the day. However, the quality of some amenities like the toilet paper was a letdown.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were wonderfully heated, spacious, and clean with a nice comfortable bed, although I wish they were a bit warmer upon arrival. The service was top-notch with the staff taking care of all my gears and being extremely helpful and polite. The location couldn't have been better, right in the heart of Queenstown, offering easy access to all the attractions. The dining experience was fantastic with a great choice of options. Overall, a fantastic value for the money!
