This place was great for everything we needed. We had a two bedroomed apartment which had a washing machine and drier which was really convenient. Washing powder is available from reception at $1 a small bag.
Everything was provided in the kitchen/living room including large fridge with freezer compartment. There was also a stereo system , tv and dvd player which was great for watching the video of our tandem paraglide.
One bedroom was downstairs which had a bathroom just off it with a bath and shower. The double bedroom upstairs had a vedry small ensuite bathroom with just a shower.
I really liked the view from the balcony, although it wasn't directly overlooking the lake we had a side on view as our apartment overlooked the side road. I wouldn't think the other apartments over the other side would have as good a view. We also had a good view of the gondola in the distance and the paragliders coming down from the top.
The walk into town was not too difficult and was about 10-15 minutes with the incline on the way back. There are places nearer the centre if this is a major issue but I personally enjoyed the walk.
The main downside for me was the heat of the place even with the windows open. It was swealtering and there was no way of altering the temperature in the rooms.

My husband and i visited Queenstown on our honeymoon and were very happy with our experience at Garden Court Suites.
We had a 1 bedroom apartment overlooking the lake, gorgeous views and a quiet location. We found the room facilities to be excellent, modern decor with a well-equipped kitchen, washer & dryer and spa bathroom. It felt as though the bathroom had underfloor heating, it was lovely!
We didn't need the room serviced, so we hung a 'Do Not Disturb' sign - housekeeping were still kind enough to leave us fresh towels and top-ups of tea, coffee, sugar etc in a bag on the doorstep which is certainly more than we expected.
We would definitely stay here again, we couldn't fault the service from either Reception or the housekeeping staff. We did notice they were undertaking some minor renovations in some parts of the complex, so it may be worth your while requesting a room away from these renovations if you're concerned about noise at all. We didn't find it to be a problem for us at all though.

We stayed here for 7 nights in a two bedroom luxuray apartment and were really happy with our accommodations.
On our arrival the desk guy was a little curt but okay. We were a little concerned with being on the corner right next to the main road but we found that once we were inside the noise was minimal. Yes there were lots of coaches and passing traffic in the morning but we found that we were up anyway because we wanted to be on one of those coaches/buses to go skiing.
The apartment had ample room in the bedrooms for me, my husband and two teenage children (18 and 16). There was two bathrooms so no arguing in the morning. The kitchen was well equipped with its cooker, dishwasher and fridge that came in handy for saving some money with food and drinks. The only squeezy part really was the lounge/dining room in the evenings when we were just relaxing.
Facilities were good - a lockable ski locker, warming room, we had a washing machine and dryer in our apartment.
Cleaning was great - they serviced our room everyday and gave us lots of clean towels even though we didn't ask for them. It was nice that they topped up our coffee, tea and sugar everyday too. Because we were there for the week they have a mid-stay clean where they cleaned up our breakfast stuff, changed sheets, towels and vaccummed.
The heating was great - we were there when they were having -15oC nights and we were really toasty inside.
The view from our balcony was nice - while we couldn't see much of the lake we still had a pretty decent view.
The walk into town took us about 5-10 minutes and was pleasant. The walk back was a little more strenuous as there is a rather long incline - the kids did it easily and I saw it as an opportunity to burn off a few of the calories I consumed at dinner. I'm really quite unfit and it was seriously not that bad.
We made inquiries about activities and the desk clerk was really helpful (not the one on check in)
On check out yet another desk clerk was really nice and friendly and we were welcomed to leave our bags in the foyer. They didn't even have a problem with us hanging around when we came back to wait for our transfer.
Overall a great stay (may have got it cheaper if we booked ourselves on the internet but hey...I'm into stress free).

I booked this hotel through wotif (which is part of the problem). We had booked a room with a bathroom, and instead received a handicapped studio. The desk clerk (Chris, I think) was rude, refused to move us to another room, and refused to refund our money.

The place had an outrageous wireless internet connection fee and staff was amazingly unhelpful.

I would definitely never stay at this hotel again because of the customer service. If you're staying here, be sure to at least book a 1 Bedroom. The walk to town isn't too bad, but on a cold winter night, it seems a lot longer.

Next time, we'll find a friendlier location.
