A beautiful hotel on the lakes edge. Rooms were spacious, the view was incredible, they had a great breakfast selection, carpark was just across the road. Only thing was, it’s a slight drive out of Queenstown, but very close to airport. There is the option of the water taxi which runs every hour and picks up straight out the front of the hotel. $10-$14 one way

Lovely hotel! Beautiful property around the lake. We are so glad we didn’t stay in downtown queenstown and decided to stay here. There is a ferry outside the hotel that you can take to go to downtown queenstown or if you have a car, it’s very convenient drive. Room was sooo nice and we really enjoyed our stay. We would recommend it 100%

Outstanding room overlooking the lake and Queenstown. Staff member at the front desk was exceptionally helpful. A bit tricky getting there and parking across the way for a fee. Water Taxi fee is nonrefundable. It broke down and so we lost money. HOWEVER, the receptionist kindly held on to our tickets and other guests were able to use it and he gave us credit. Driving into town is busy and finding parking a challenge so look for the car park. It will cost you around the same price for the water taxi! What a fun place to visit!

Front office staff was attentive and available 24/7 for any needs. Grounds were clean, quiet, slightly removed from the main downtown of Queenstown but only a short drive away and it was nice to be on the other side away from the action a bit. Good if you’re looking for a little more privacy and relaxed pace.
