Beautiful, cosy but large resort. Had a great stay as the staff are super friendly and the facilities are great. The only thing that annoyed me was that they add a 7 NZD charge to each room service delivery! Besides that, a great stay and I would definitely go there again!

Ideally situated as only a five minute walk to the centre but yet in a quiet area. Very comfortable with friendly owners who genuinely want you to enjoy your stay with them, and in Queenstown. A perfect place to stay.

On arrival we had a free upgrade to a larger room with great views of the mountains and lake. The room was very clean and tidy. The location was great too with just a ten-minute walk to the centre of town and a five-minute walk to the Skyline.
