    We personally felt it lacked a bit of atmosphere in the hotelbar at night. Also, we stayed there during NYE, and we were a little bit surprised nothing was organized at midnight. We didn’t expect anything big obviously, just maybe a glass of bubbels to say cheers. Just as a gesture maybe ;) But service at the hotel was very good, same as the whole staff!

    The restaurant, by far. The food was very good, highly recommend eating there while staying at Kamana.

    The breakfast menu was delicious but maybe more variety. Having the scrambled eggs on the kids menu ?

    The view, absolutely stunning. The staff were very welcoming and nothing too much trouble. We were concerned the location would have been too far away, but courtesy driver to town was wonderful and the bus was a short ride and very easy to use.

    Not much view of the lake. External lights should be lighted minimally so that we could get a better of the starry sky.

    Great view of the mountain range. Room was well kept and maintained daily. Carpark lots were ample. Thank you staff of Kamana for keeping it splendid.

    Lack of variety for breakfast. Wanted to try some plates without spice and weren’t possible. Onsen on site pools should have a special price for guests that already paid a fair price. They charge the same amount as a professional on sen pools with massage included. Not easy to move around if you don’t have a car. Must take bus to go up and down, each way 4 nz dlls.

    Great views and front row room was comfortable, has all you need. Andrea at the front desk was very polite and kind.

    Everything. Comfortable and clean. On the pricier end, but worth it. It's located a short 5 minute drive from the city centre but it was perfect for what we wanted. Quite and relaxing. There are some shops 1 minute walk away, must try the fish and chips, chur. Dinner @ nest was excellent, and we definitely recommend trying.

    The pricing seemed a bit high compared to other stays I had in Queenstown. Although some reviews raved about the spa, my experience for an extra $119 (limited to 1 hour) was underwhelming (the view was great though, same as the dining area). The spa lacked bubbles (only one jet), and other hotels provide bath, pool and spa access as part of their standard service. On my first night, they had a function and the noise kept me awake for a while. Additionally, the distance from town and the challenge of finding parking in Queenstown were drawbacks as I opted to drive. Having said that, Kamana do offer a driver if you plan ahead and notify them.

    Fine dining at Nest Restaurant was the highlight of my stay at Kamana Lake House. Their food & hospitality service are their strengths. I definitely recommend to book dinner in advance. The view from the dining area is spectacular. Their staff are really well-trained, professional, friendly and attentive, allowed to shine with their own personality. Cocktails were also great. The staff at the front desk was also outstanding. It's a well oiled machine.
