Very nice large room with plenty of heating. Comfortable and clean. Close (drive) to Queenstown without the bustle of the town centre. Very nice polite helpful staff. Had fun at attached the 10-pin bowling alley Strikebowl. Lovely pub across the road. Unfortunately the main restaurant was closed due to a complete rebuild.

    Great location and good price. The hotel was clean, facilities ok, included tea and coffee, hair straighteners etc. Nice rooftop terrace, great views. There is a car park behind the property - bit expensive when you’re staying for multiple days but still a reasonable price for Queenstown.

    Awesome budget hotel, really great location. We could walk into town easily but it is set slightly back from the shops so it was quiet. Awesome roof top deck with a view. There was street parking around the area. The staff were friendly and chill. The room exceeded our expectations, especially for the price!
