La Quinta by Wyndham Remarkables Park Queenstown

10/10 Excellent
"Me and my partner stayed here for 10 days and it was great! The front reception staff were so lovely, every single time I went past them they were so kind, the rooms were spacious and clean with such a stunning view no matter where you are in the building or when you walk out! The building is close to the airport but away from the main town but still great if you don’t mind. The only thing was the walls are abit thin so you can hear people snoring, talking etc but other than that it was a great place to stay at, definitely recommended it!!"

"Great little hotel ideally placed right next to the CBD. Clean, tidy and quiet. The rooms are a bit on the small side and the hotel lacks a few things like any form of cutlery, in-room tea / coffee making facilities but there is a handy vending machine located in the corridor just outside the rooms, so it's not too big a deal. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay."
