This is the 2nd time we have stayed at Peppers Beacon and will continue to go back. We stayed at Christmas time and were quite suprised that Queenstown was reasonably quiet. My family of 4 adults enjoyed a high floor 2 bedroom apartment with unobstructed lake views. Fabulous balcony with seating outside made chill out time even more special. Was... More

Stayed here over the Christmas and I have to say very much enjoyed it. The Staff are friendly and pleasant, its in an excellent location with perhaps the best view of Lake Wakatipu, and the fresh bread upon arrival is a very nice touch, especially after travelling over night from Australia. More

We booked for a 4 day break in Queenstown to escape the Melbourne heat. It was a deal that was booked a few months prior for a great price. Unfortunately, we ended up having to shorten our trip due to a wedding ... and was not able to change the booking as it was booked through another agency; however, when... More

I cannot normally stand staying on a Stella/Mantra property. This hotel was very close to town, appeared to have been clean, and (but for an inconsiderate guest vomiting in the lift) was enjoyable. The view from the room was incredible! They use zip-king beds. If you need Internet access while away, do not rely on this hotel's extortionate charges. It... More

My wife and I stayed here during our trip through New Zealand. It's located just 5 minutes walking distance from the town center, so getting anywhere was not a problem at all. The room was very clean. Strong shower and effective heating. The staff was extremely professional and so so nice. They really went out of their way to help... More

This is the first occasion I have had to express such disappointment of a Peppers resort. I refer to the Beacon in Queenstown. As guests of Balle and Salt at Kingscliffe and Lake Tekapo NZ to name a few, all of which are to the Peppers expected standard, the Beacon was dismal. We were put in a room which could... More

We stayed three nights at Peppers Beacon in Queenstown, New Zealand. It's honestly one of the nicest places we'vee ever stayed for a variety of reasons. First was the problem we faced booking accomodations over the New Year for anything less than 4 days. Peppers let us stay just two nights (I'll explain the discrepancy between 2 and 3 days... More

This was our second stay at the Peppers Beacon. On both occasions we have been on a self-drive holiday around New Zealand and welcomed staying at the Peppers Beacon. First of all, the two greatest features of this hotel are its location being only a 200 yard stroll along the lakeside to the centre of Queenstown and the tremendous view... More

We stayed here for 4 nights in a 2 bedroom suite and simply loved it. the hotel is in close proximity of city center and in front of the lake. You probably don't need a lake view if you want to save your money - garden view is equally good - infact better if you ask me. the staff was... More
