Balmoral Lodge was the perfect place to stay in Queenstown. The location is unbeatable—close to town but peaceful with stunning lake and mountain views. The facilities were spotless and well-equipped, and the space felt warm and comfortable. What really stood out was the incredible hospitality—so welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. We felt right at home. Would 100% stay here again. Highly recommended!

The Balmoral Lodge was a great spot for our Queenstown stay. Although it was up the hill, it was quite convenient and provided a beautiful view of the lake. Our stay was wonderful and would highly recommend it to visitors. We also really appreciated on-site parking!

Pictures of the views for Thai place didn’t do this place justice. Our views from our windows were gorgeous! The Hostess was very nice and receptive to our needs. Although the house was on a busy street, we didn’t feel like the place was too noisy. Easy walking distance to downtown, bit of a climb coming back from CBD. Highly recommended for extended stays, just make sure you plan for breakfasts.

The host and staff were incredibly friendly. The highlight of the hotel was the stunning lake view. Waking up to the serene beauty of the lake each morning was a real treat. Also there is a lovely garden with beautiful flowers, It was such a delight to enjoying tea or wine while soaking in the lake view. Although the hotel is a bit distant from downtown, it's only a 10-minute walk away. And if you prefer, taking an Uber is quite convenient and affordable, costing just NZ$9.

Balmoral Lodge is a house up the hill from the centre of Queenstown. It is a nice clean house and our room had its own good clean bathroom and shower. The lady who comes in each day to clean the rooms is so kind and helpful and did our washing for us. It is a steep hill to walk from town but if you don't want the 10 minute walk it's easy enough to grab a cab.
