Presidential Suite(316- this is the best of 4) The room: Very large, very comfortable, great view over the shotover river with a Jakuzzi on the balcony. The location: 20 minute out of town.

On our 4 week trip to New Zealand, this was the hotel I was looking forward to staying in the most from reading the reviews and looking at the photos. The room was certainly the nicest and the service was impeccable, we were met on time at the airport and the two ladies on Reception (Helen and ?) were friendly,... more

We spent nights watching films we rented from the main desk on the nice Plasma. Before dinner we would have a drink... more

It has all the facilities for a discerning traveller, very hospitable owners and staff and, if you get a room overlooking the Shotover River, one of the best hotel views anywhere. It may not be in the centre of Queenstown but it is very close. Also, if you... more
