Most of the staff were incredibly lovely and helpful. Facilities are pretty good, only real downside is there are no kitchenettes, fridges or microwaves available in the rooms or in the common area. If you want to do longer stays in Queenstown I reckon these are essentials, if the way had those things I would say 10/10 it’s the best place to stay."Reviewed November 12, 2026Return • Brisbane (BNE) - Queenstown (ZQN)BNE - ZQN • 1 stop ZQN - BNE • 1 stopAU$1,761AU$1,441found 1 day agoper traveller

Rendezvous Heritage Hotel Queenstown"Loved this hotel!! Perfect location for exploring Queenstown, beautiful views, amazing breakfast and we also enjoyed the pool and sauna."
Hotel St Moritz, Queenstown - MGallery
Hotel St Moritz, Queenstown - MGallery"Lovely hotel overlooking the lake. Close to town but very quiet. Breakfast, dinner and room service were all excellent!! The rooms were spacious, and the beds were very comfortable. I would highly recommend it! The only downside is it’s on a hill which if you have a mobility issue might be a concern. Great stay!"
Ramada Suites by Wyndham Queenstown Remarkables Park
Ramada Suites by Wyndham Queenstown Remarkables Park"I like how easy and convenient the checking process is and having a rental car made it harder to access the parking garage. The key reader is very small and easy to miss. I wish I had known my room will be upstairs and also half the ceiling slopes down so it’s not very comfortable to stand up straight. The laundry is convenient to have but it doesn’t dry very well."
