Staff were very accommodating to our needs esp with 2 toddlers in board. Location was superb - near to restaurants, Queenstown garden, and the lake.

Excellent location and reasonable rooms. Customer service in restaurant & bar was not always great, inconsistent and slow. Front desk staff were brilliant and friendly. Overall it served our purpose for a family holiday and we will return as itโ€™s a great base in Queenstown.
