    I think it would have been helpful if room service come in at least once to collect waste etc., as we stayed for three nights. We did not meet anyone during our stay at all (self check in/ out).

    The room was very neatly done and comfortable, having great view of the lake. Kitchen was well equipped. We appreciated the bathtub with jacuzzi! Our recommendation to future visitors is do not rent a car in Queenstown… if you are staying here, the bus stop is right at the bottom of the slope (it is steep slope) and you can get to city center with $4 (cash payment) easily, avoiding expensive parking fee.

    The room price is not cheap, but we enjoyed a spacious room and beautiful lake view. The room is up on the hill, so it is better to drive a car. The room is nice and cozy and quiet, if you wanna go to the town centre, it will take 10-15 mins drive.

    Very slippery shower and bathroom floors, mats should be provided for safety. Very small towels. Noise from upstairs walking around, dragging furniture and strong cooking smells cascading down. No laundry facilities.

    Good location away from the noise of CBD but easy access. Wonderful views, clean and spacious inside. Decorated in alpine style, which while somewhat dated was classy. Easy communication. Nice seating area at the front, lots of parking.

    Not exactly in Queenstown, a good 5km to city center but there are buses and Uber to use :)

    Interesting decoration, big studio. Beautiful views from the location over the lake and mountains.

    The outside of the property is very dated and could do with some work. Couldn’t contact property when we arrived which was very stressful.

    The view is absolutely stunning and even though it’s only 5mins from airport or town it’s very quiet and secluded up on a hill.

    A little slow with communication. Better to call the property than message.

    Cannot fault the place. Super clean, lovely homely, quiet feel to the place. Bus stop very close. Gorgeous view. Comfortable bed, no waking up with a aching back. This place is a hidden gem.

    Pricey. Hot tub was not available, check before booking if that matters to you. Driveway up to it is steep, but not an issue for our tiny hybrid rental car. Outside of town, but this could be a positive.

    Great views. Rustic vibes. Common Spaces add a lot to whatever unit you book. Outdoor fireplace and indoor fireplace. Outdoor eating locations. Loved it. Billiard room is a vibe! Would love to go when there are more guests to mingle and enjoy drinks around a fire, play pool, or lounge indoors near a fire. Seems perfect for winter (We went Summer)

    Spacious Apartment in a Scenic Location

    I wish there were laundry facilities within the apartment. The parking lot can be a bit cramped. We found a few spiders, which is not uncommon in NZ, but the management should a bit more careful since the building is older. The oven can be a bit tricky. The management is a slow to respond.

    Location, location, location!!! On the top of a hill overlooking the lake, where you can enjoy the lake and mountain views on a clear day without even getting out of the apartment. The sitting area on the front is even more enticing. The apartment is huge, tastefully decorated, with everything you can expect in a luxury accommodation (e.g. a jacuzzi tub). A fully functional kitchen meant that you can enjoy your breakfasts, lunches and dinners without going to the touristy CBD of Queenstown. The beds (including the sofa bed) were very comfortable and there were books to enjoy for adults and games for kids.

    Nothing. Not daily service- came day 3 of 5 night stay - which was OK.

    It is in a very elevated spot away from the crazy centre of Queenstown. The view was amazing (we had upstairs room with lake view) and it was small and very quiet. Balcony was a great spot to sit.
