Top Te Wahipounamu Hotel Reviews

Ramada by Wyndham Queenstown Central

8/10 Good

"Great hotel & well-priced. Very comfortable bed and spotlessly clean. If you stay here, be prepared to negotiate your way up & down a pretty steep hill when walking to & from central Queenstown. Not suitable for those with mobility challenges. The Coco Cabana serves a delicious coco oat bowl for breakfast. However, it closes at 8:30pm & there is no room service after this time."

Crowne Plaza Hotel Queenstown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic experience! The staff was amazing and packed us convenient breakfast boxes on two early mornings, which was super helpful while traveling with our toddler. The room was wonderful, and the balcony offered a brilliant mix of nature and energy—gorgeous lake, mountain, and sunrise views paired with a lively street scene below. Perfect place to relax with a morning coffee"

Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay!"

voco Queenstown by IHG

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was nice and staffs were very friendly. Not impressed with house keeping service. For family of 4, they were leaving only 2 fresh towels . Everyday they were only refilling sugar only and no coffee sachets.. Location is good. I believe that parking should be included in package."

La Quinta by Wyndham Remarkables Park Queenstown

10/10 Excellent

"The property is well situated except that it is not on the Bus route. Very clean facilities. Beds made daily. Tea & Coffee tray stocked up every day. Impressed with the shower draining freely as this is a matter of concern for us. Will try & stay here again on our annual pilgrimage to Queenstown (ZQN)"
