We were upgraded and had to carry all our suitcases etc upstairs, the grout in the bathroom was dirty but we were made to feel welcome by the person at reception. (Would chose a cabin in a camping ground over this after our experience of 3 weeks travelling in south island)

We had been upgraded to a suite which was very welcoming and our room was excellent with plenty of room in the sitting area and a most comfortable bed. Heating was needed as the nights were cold, very efficient without being overpowering. We also had kitchen facilities, all were very clean and new but we did not use them as... More

The booking for this motel was made through a travel agent and we were very happy with their choice. Spent 7 nights at this resort while we where on a skiing holiday. So glad this resort had the hot tub spas as they were really needed. Rooms were clean, serviced daily and very comfortable to stay in. Staff were very... More

I booked a room on hotels.com for dirt cheap (I'm talking hostel prices) and must have smiled upon by the hotel gods because I was upgraded to a fabulous 1 bedroom with a full kitchen, huge deck and lovely bathroom. The best part was that there was a washer/dryer in the unit (what!!) so I could clean all my stinky... More

Friendly staff, lovely unit with good bedrooms, we used the family unit with 2 bedrooms. Only stayed one night but another time we would like to stay longer. In summer would have used the pool. Felt welcomed and enjoyed our brief stay. Need a car to get to town.

Few small cosmetic issues but overall very happy... I had read all the reviews and was dreading staying here.. I am happy to say we... More

Housekeeping gave a good service got a radaint bar heater with fan. Unfortunately they plugged it in right by the bed - we tried to ask for an extension chord but... More

After experiencing very good and well priced accommodation in Queenstown, we were extremely disappointed with this "resort". From the unwelcoming and disinterested staff at reception to the very basic and mostly empty "buffet breakfast" we were happy that we had only decided on one night there. They didn't seem to be very busy, however, on arrival at our two bedroom... More

We stayed here as a group and were given rooms quite a walk away from the reception, dining and loungebar area. They were tiny units, hardly enough room to move around. The dinner had been pre-booked for three courses but only two were provided. The breakfast was greazy and it ran out. When we asked for more to be brought... More
