Our guide on where to stay in Queenstown
Queenstown City Centre
This adventure-packed area sits right on the shores of Lake Wakatipu. Queenstown City Centre buzzes with tour operators, restaurants, and bars catering to thrill-seekers. The stunning mountain views create a perfect backdrop for lakefront strolls through Queenstown Gardens. Book your bungy jump or jet boat ride at one of many adventure shops. Browse local art at Creative Queenstown Arts & Crafts Market or visit Skycity Casino. The compact area makes exploring easy with most attractions just a short walk away.
Fernhill
Perched on the hillside above Queenstown, Fernhill rewards travellers with breathtaking views of Lake Wakatipu and surrounding mountains. This peaceful residential haven offers an escape from downtown's energy while staying close to adventure. Native bush surrounds upscale holiday homes where panoramic vistas greet you each morning. The area connects to scenic walking trails through unspoiled nature, including access to the popular Ben Lomond Track. Most properties feature modern designs with large windows that frame the spectacular alpine scenery. A hire car makes exploring easier, as the steep terrain provides tranquility but requires planning.
Frankton
Frankton serves as Queenstown's vital transport hub, centred around the international airport and major bus interchange. The scenic lakeside area balances practical amenities with stunning mountain views and waterfront access at Lake Wakatipu and Frankton Beach. Shopping enthusiasts will appreciate Remarkables Park Town Centre with its diverse retail options and dining terraces. Outdoor lovers can explore the Central Otago Rail Trail or relax at the lake while enjoying lower accommodation prices than central Queenstown. The area offers a perfect blend of convenience and natural beauty.
Sunshine Bay
Sunshine Bay offers a tranquil retreat from Queenstown's bustling centre while still delivering spectacular lake and mountain views. This peaceful residential haven sits along Lake Wakatipu's shore, where a small beach invites swimming despite the always-chilly alpine waters. Walking paths wind along the waterfront, perfect for capturing postcard-worthy shots of The Remarkables mountain range. The area maintains a quiet, resort-like atmosphere with contemporary holiday homes nestled among native plants. With minimal commercial development, you'll enjoy pristine natural surroundings and starry night skies. Central Queenstown's restaurants and shops are just a short drive away.
Boydtown

Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park by IHG
Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park by IHG"Convenient location- easy to get an Uber into/ out of Queenstown. Hotel room was clean but needs a refreshed coat of paint. Bed comfortable! Very good breakfast in the am."
"This venue is looking quite tired and not well maintained. Housekeeping left bags of dirty laundry in the halls and dishes were outside rooms for most of the day. We were disappointed in the 'fitness centre' having just one kettle bell in the weights room. And we were told on arrival that the spa pool, which is advertised on Expedia and their website, had been closed for six months. It was passable, but for the price not great value for money."
"Highly recommend"
La Quinta by Wyndham Remarkables Park Queenstown

"Great stay, more parking at the hotel would have been better though."
"Close to town, clean and tidy small room at just 15 sm. Sliding door to the toilet was below expectation in addition to glass separating the shower and toilet from the bedroom."
