The rooms are not cleaned properly, hair and food waste on the dinner chair, black unknown stuff spotted on the master room bedsheet, this is so far the worst hotel experience during our family trip all over the world. Especially would like to highlight the arrogant attitude and black face given by the front desk staff on the day we checked out on 3rd July. She rejected to keep the promise of yesterday’s staff promised to let us park until 12:30pm, tried to blame the staff not checking clearly. The reason why we cannot park was because they would have wedding guests to use the car park on the day. But why the hotel customers need to bear the responsibility of mistake made by the staff? Wondering how the hotel management train their employees.

An important thing to be aware of this these units are individually owned and centrally managed. That means, if there is an issue with your unit and you need to move rooms, you will have to pay extra if the only rooms available are more expensive. We were the Executive Studio, and it was right by the stairwell and elevator. Every time someone used the stairs, the wall shook and the doors banged. Every time someone used the elevator, the loud humming noise filled the room. When I asked to be moved, I was told I would have to pay extra as only bigger/more expensive rooms were available. I was also told I should’ve called and said I was a light sleeper so they could’ve helped me select a room. Never in my life have I called a hotel specifically asking for a room that is quiet enough to sleep in, nor did I know the room location in the building prior to booking. My husband, who is a very heavy sleeper, had a terrible nights sleep, too. The next day we were able to be moved into a comparable room, and the rest of the stay was uneventful apart from some issues with the Wifi. The location is good. The rooms were comfortable and a good size. There is free parking which is a bonus as parking in Queenstown is expensive and difficult. I would recommend checking where the room is located in relation to the stairwell and elevator to avoid the issues we had.

This apartment is huge. Plenty of room for 3 people & stuff. Location is fantastic! Go down private walkway & you are right in the center of the restaurant area. Clean, comfortable. Note that desk is open only 8 hours but were very cooperative for our late checkin. Furnishings are clean but dated but with this location I don’t care.

Fantastic apartment close to down town area.
Really comfortable apartment with plenty of room for the five of us. Enjoyed the balcony looking over the city and good view of the Gondola. Short walk to down town area made it great to pick up some food at the bakery in the morning.

The place is not the newest but the location is unbeatable! You can walk to town easily, 3 min walk and you’re at the lake. We stayed at the one bedroom suite, it’s really spacious for our family of 3. The only downside is the internet is soooo slow that basically any webpage cannot be opened every night between 8pm till midnight. We have to turn off WiFi on our phone and use our own internet data during our stay. During the day the speed is also really slow, but at least you can open a webpage.

Great location and had room 307 which was a great room for a family of 5. Beware that the room had steep stairs inside which was a bit scary having a 22 month old with us, had to make sure she kept away from them. Would be great for a family with older kids or a group of friends. There is also an unusual smell in the reception, lift and hallway on the second floor. It put me off at first, and I started to look for alternative accom but there was no smell in our apartment so we got over it. The room had everything you’d need, home away from home. The beds were really comfy. The hallway feels like a school dorm and also feels like could’ve been an old church. Parking was great, we had no problem getting a park for the three days we were there. The reception staff was really helpful and the cleaning staff were really lovely. The best part was town was right outside the back gate, it was so nice to be able to walk to eat and explore. A great stay.
