    nice touch

    Just a top selection for a weekend respite in Queenstown with value for money. The heater was already on when I arrived, a nice touch. If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask at the front desk.

    The hotel was fairly clean, service was great. Booked a room with a decent full kitchen. The check in was friendly and the atmosphere was wonderful throughout the venue. Location: the hotel was very close to the main shopping area as well as a 6 day hike.

    fine view
    essential kitchenette
    strong odor
    poor cleanliness

    The fine view from my room, right on the lakeside. The kitchenette had all the essentials. The location, just 100 meters from downtown Queenstown, allowed for effortless exploration. The room had a strong bleach odor upon arrival, off-putting. The cleanliness left much to be desired. Surfaces reminded me of they hadn't been properly cleaned. The bed was uncomfortable, impacting my sleep quality. Although I appreciated the kitchenette, the outdated decor felt tired and not cute. It could easily be a great stay with a few upgrades and better attention to cleanliness.

    This was a just perfect stay for one night. Its location just a short stroll away from St Joseph Parish was particularly good. We also went to city centre, located at a medium distance from the hotel.

    Well, the views were not so good here.

    lakeside views
    outdated decor
    poor mattress

    fine lakeside views, convenient parking, close proximity to downtown

    The outdated decor feels like a time capsule from the 80s!!! Poor mattress quality and a slow wifi connection detracted from the experience!!! A refresh is definitely in order to justify the high prices!!!

    beautiful views
    convenient location
    spotty wi-fi
    minor inconveniences

    The spacious kitchen made meal prep easy, and the beautiful views of the lake from our room made mornings special. The location is just 100 meters from downtown Queenstown, super convenient for exploring.

    The Wi-Fi connection was a bit spotty at times.

    kitchenette essentials
    dated room

    Had a nice stay overall! The fine lakeside view made morning coffee a treat. The kitchenette had the essentials, but yeah, the room felt a bit dated and could use a refresh. Still, it's a solid spot for a few days in Queenstown.

    super clean bedding

    This place was a good match for resting at all in Queenstown with good value. The bedding was super clean, a relief. Don't bother trying the wifi. It hardly worked anyway.

    Cozy spot with a killer view!

    The view from the room was just fine, right on the lake. It made mornings so much better! The kitchen had all the essentials we needed, and there's a picnic area nearby for meals outside. Wi-Fi was kinda spotty, a pain when trying to plan activities.

    fine views
    spacious accommodations
    cleanliness issue
    musty odor
    poor communication

    The lakeside views were fine. Spacious accommodations at a reasonable price allowed us to enjoy family breakfasts, thanks to the kitchenette. Unfortunately, we encountered cleanliness issues including unemptied trash and a musty odor from the dehumidifier, which impacted our comfort level. Communication with the staff was inconsistent, and our request to change rooms was awkwardly handled.
