Review: It was a great stay, the room was clean, great bathroom and shower, the hotel looks new and well maintained. Most of the staff were incredibly lovely and helpful. Facilities are pretty good, only real downside is there are no kitchenettes, fridges or microwaves available in the rooms or in the common area. If you want to do longer stays in Queenstown I reckon these are essentials, if the way had those things I would say 10/10 it’s the best place to stay.

Review: This venue is looking quite tired and not well maintained. Housekeeping left bags of dirty laundry in the halls and dishes were outside rooms for most of the day. We were disappointed in the 'fitness centre' having just one kettle bell in the weights room. And we were told on arrival that the spa pool, which is advertised on Expedia and their website, had been closed for six months. It was passable, but for the price not great value for money.
