Small details but the fire never really got going for more than half an hour - purely for limited effect and outdoor one never lit. Ventilation in bathroom didn’t seem to be there. Bed wasn’t made properly ever.

Cute white lotus vibes, Decor that is Great location for Queenstown, every close to everything Evening drinks and complimentary snacks a bonus. So much better than chain hotels for similar price.

Everything about this boutique hotel made for a great stay. It's a short, easy walk down the hill into Queenstown's town centre, so we had quick access to restaurants, shops, and the lake. The atmosphere was warm and social — guests naturally chatted over breakfast and during the hosted drinks session between 5–6pm. The room was a great size, everything was spotlessly clean, and the value was excellent given the rate included continental breakfast plus free drinks and snacks in the common area. Staff were friendly, responsive, and easy to deal with throughout. Despite being close to town, it was generally quiet, with just a little early morning noise as Queenstown woke up.

Parking is paid and must be booked in advance. If you're driving and don't sort this out ahead of time, you could end up needing to park elsewhere and walk back to the hotel.

Absolutely loved the location! We never needed a car—the place is perfectly situated for strolling around and exploring Queenstown. The mountain views from our bedroom were incredible. 🏔️ Happy hour was fantastic, with great wine and the perfect opportunity to meet new people. Loved the lolly bar :) The staff were so friendly and welcoming; they genuinely made us feel like family. Would happily stay here again! ❤️

The included breakfast and happy hour were a great touch, and the bookable hot tub was great. The historic building has so much charm and the staff are wonderful.

The heat control in the room was difficult to work out, and the after-hours reception numbers we were given weren't answered.
