Top Underwater Observatory Hotel Reviews

Rendezvous Heritage Hotel Queenstown

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were all very helpful. Overall a great place to stay."

Highview Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"We opted for the no-view room and we were quite delighted to have a large room that was comfortable and well equipped. The shower and bed were lovely. The only minor detail is that there were quite a few hairs between the duvet and the cover, but overall the stay was quite pleasant. Limited parking, so arrive early or park on the street if there's no space."

QT Queenstown

10/10 Excellent

"This is the best place to stay in Queenstown! My third stay here and it did not disappoint. The turndown service was just perfect! The little treats left on the bed were a lovely touch. The juice and treats in the morning and wine and cheese in the afternoon was just amazing. I will be returning next month and can’t wait. The staff were friendly and helpful. Thank you very much"

Amity Serviced Apartments

10/10 Excellent

Staff very efficient,helpful and kind Would definitely stay there again"

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."
