⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot recommend Melbourne Lodge in Queenstown highly enough – it was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived, the experience was nothing short of exceptional.

Easy and flexible check in with excellent customer service. Room was comfy, clean and spacious with a nice bathroom and fast wifi. Laundry and ski gear/luggage storage on site as well which was handy. Highly recommended.

We rented the studio with the kitchenette. We were pleasantly surprised by how well equipped the kitchenette was. The studio was very cleaned and well furnished which made our stay very comfortable.

The view of the lake in t...
