Rendezvous Heritage Hotel Queenstown

10/10 Excellent

"Loved it again.So good to get away to somewhere that is always great. A pity we can't stay longer. Atmosphere, people, facilities all wonderful."

Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at Hilton Queenstown. The hotel’s location on the shores of Lake Wakatipu provides stunning views of the lake and surrounding mountains, creating a peaceful atmosphere away from the busy town centre. The rooms are spacious, modern, and well-appointed, with comfortable beds and excellent facilities. Waking up to the lake views each morning was one of the highlights of our trip. The staff were friendly, professional, and always willing to help. Service was consistently warm and efficient throughout our stay. The breakfast offered a good variety of hot and cold options, with high-quality ingredients and beautiful views from the restaurant. It was a great way to start each day. While the hotel is located a short drive or water taxi ride from central Queenstown, we found this to be an advantage, allowing us to enjoy the spectacular scenery and a quieter environment while still having easy access to the town. Overall, Hilton Queenstown delivered the relaxing lakeside experience we were looking for and we would happily stay here again."

Ramada by Wyndham Queenstown Central

10/10 Excellent

"Staff at Ramada were incredibly helpful and friendly. Thanks to Adam for his excellent customer service! During checkout, the lady at reception was very nice and helpful. The restaurant at the hotel served delicious food and was really clean and had a calm environment. Staff at the restaurant was friendly and polite. 5/5 stars to the hotel staff!! 🌟 "

Mi-pad Queenstown

10/10 Excellent

"Overall, our stay was outstanding. The staff were exceptional—friendly, accommodating, and genuinely helpful throughout our visit. They held our bags and food leftovers for us, helped me figure out the hot drink vending machine, and were very sympathetic when I had an issue with the room lighting, even though they weren’t able to resolve it. The complimentary hot chocolate and lattes were fantastic and ended up being one of the highlights of our stay. I’m glad I saw them mentioned in previous reviews. My only suggestion for improvement would be the smart lighting system. This may have been user error on my part, but I found it difficult to operate. The control panel remained illuminated throughout the night, and the bathroom light kept turning on with no apparent way to override the system. As someone who is very sensitive to light while sleeping, this affected my sleep quality. That said, everything else about the stay was excellent, and the outstanding service from the staff left a very positive impression."
