"I was a bit sceptical staying at a backpackers with my 15 year old daughter. Things have changed in the last 30 years! The twin room was cozy and private with very comfortable beds. The kitchen was well stocked with enough equipment and utensils to keep a master chef happy. The bathrooms were spotless and there was an endless supply of boiling hot water. The sauna and hot tub were a welcome bonus after a big day skiing. The location is perfect with just a short stroll into town, the gardens and...

Te Anau Lakeview Holiday Park & Motels

8/10 Good

"The heated towel rail in bathroom didnt work, only had 1x knife and fork so had to ask reception for another set. Frypan was old and warped so made it hard to cook anything."

La Quinta by Wyndham Remarkables Park Queenstown

10/10 Excellent

"It was a lovely stay property was clean and tidy staff was nice too Just car parking can be better, as there is free limited parking space available on first come first serve bases. I would recommend this property for your next visit to qzn"

Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, a ferry runs to Queenstown every hour which is cheaper than an uber, several food options within the resort area which is convenient. The breakfast buffet was great value, wide range of options - highly recommend. During winter they included complimentary hot chocolate in the lobby. Lots of nice walking nearby and places to sit and relax, nice fireplace area outdoors near the main restaurant. Parking was mildly annoying, don’t use the underground carpark if you have a medium or big car as it is pretty tight to navigate. Just use the above ground / open gravel area to park and that’s also closer walking distance to the hotel entrance. If you arrive late you might struggle to find a parking spot, none are reserved. Pay by QR code for parking is easy, don’t have to pay for a full day either (first 3 hours free). Was fine after working that out. There was some miscommunication with some staff around buffet prices, but it got resolved promptly and they took care of everything. Do not use the service in the lobby for pre booking tours, as being a third party that makes it difficult to make changes or cancellations if you have to change plans due to weather etc. Not worth 5% discount for that hassle, plus they charge huge card fee so the savings aren’t worth it."
