Queenstown Motels

Lakeside is in the perfect location, on the lake, just a few minutes walk to all the amenities in the town. We had a view of the lake from our comfortable room. Everything was clean and the shower was fabulous! We arrived at the motel in the morning and they were happy to store our luggage before we were able to check in, as well as after we checked out, because our flight was late afternoon. Highly recommended!

Handy location to the town Centre in Queenstown. The Lonond is just 250m walk to the lake front. We found the beds to be very Comfortable. As it was the middle of winter, the room was nice and warm when we arrived. They have a good sustainability policy, the staff were helpful and friendly.

If you don’t want a welcome, electricity, heating then this is the place to be! We arrived at about 17:15 and the reception was closed and opened up the next day at 09:30. Everything fine, we took the keys from the post box. The room was ice cold and we put the heating on. The heating just made noises all night and didn’t give any heat. There was a phone number available, but only for emergencies, if it wasn’t an emergency then the owner would charge you 50$. As we didn’t know if having no heating (which you would expect at a motel) was an emergency or not, we decided to sleep in the cold. The next day we told him about it and he gave us an electric heater. I also asked if he could change the full bins from their previous guests. The next evening the electricity was out. It took about an hour for it to be back… The room itself is outdated as the heating doesn’t work and there are scratches and stains on the walls and carpets. The cleanliness is ok. For the ‘show’ it seems clean, but whatever you do, do not look under the beds or behind cabinets! The location is good, it’s a 7 minute walk to the centre, but in all honesty you could probably find a better motel with a warm welcome and stuff that works.

We stayed 3 nights and appreciated the space as I had a bedroom and my son had bed in the lounge but still lots of space and a sofa and lots of cupboard space. Small kitchen space as part of room but we only needed the kettle and fridge. Bathroom all good with nice towels and heater and heated towel rail and fan if you needed it . About a 10 min walk to centre but it is on the hill ! We were disappointed to arrive and not be able to check in till 3.30 as they were understaffed and behind on cleaning ( but appreciate how tough it is to find people as we saw in QT with many place’s advertising)) It was just a bit annoying as we were going on a boat trip and had had a long drive. They do not service rooms either - didn’t bother us but did have to remember to get milk and sugar top ups. Laundry available to use. Staff friendly and helpful and apologetic wi yv situation. The biggest downside is that the rooms back onto a very busy road so pretty noisy !

Nice motel. Great views of the Lake and Remarkables from our room on the ground floor. Late check in was well-organised even without a reception in attendance. The room was well equipped with a mini kitchen (including a stove) and our issues were promptly handled by the reception/manager. Two drawbacks in the room: no safe and no telephone. Morgan (manager) was kind to help us out with keeping our valuables safe with her. On the latter, one had to run to the reception or call the reception during office hours through personal phones which I found a bit odd. On Day 1, we found our shower drain blocked but that was handled by Morgan the same day. By the time we were leaving, the drain was blocking again so hope the room service team will clear it for the next occupancy. We were confused with the room service provisioning though - some days we would receive a full service, some days basic - which is fine with us but a bit more communication would have been helpful. There is a self serve laundry which only takes coins so you’d need to have cash on hand that the reception will gladly barter for coins. The location is good, closer to the town centre and with a view. Public transport is also accessible. For people with physical limitations (which are rare QT visitors unlike us), the location is a bit challenging. All in all, a good place to stay in QT.

Große Lage für das Verlassen Ihres Autos und zu Fuß in die Stadt oder um den Seekanten. freundlich und hilfsbereites Personal. Belegen auf der Hauptstraße in die Stadt, nur aus der Fahrt eine Herausforderung bei Spitzenzeiten. Bus stoppen über die Straße und 100m für eine Reise nach Milford Sounds.

We stayed for a night here (after 3 days' stay in another hotel nearby) during Christmas/ New Year peak season when hotel rooms in Queenstown are so demanding and we were nearly unable to book a room. So when we noticed vacancy at this lodge, we were so delighted and booked without hesitation. One needs to walk a bit uphill from the city centre for 15 mins. I find the location fine though. There is a bus stop just in the opposite side of the road where we got a public bus to the airport (15-20 mins ride). Our rooms are not facing the lake but right next to the road. We were satisfied as the rooms were clean functional and very spacious. For eating, seems there are no restaurants nearby although one may go to the hotels around for meals or otherwise make own meals with the microwave or toaster in the room.

Das Apartment war eine gute Größe, die genug Platz bietet. Das Bett war sehr komfortabel, um eine gute Nacht schlafen. Haben Sie einen schüttelnden Rohr war großartig für das Socken am Abend nach besuchten Tagen. Die Küche ermöglichte uns, unsere eigenen Mahlzeiten entsprechend zubereiten. Die Besatzung war sehr freundlich und hilfreich. Lage ist ausgezeichnet und ist ein einfacher Spaziergang zum Zentrum (zwischen ist ein kurzer, scharfer Hügel, aber nichts übermäßig besteuern). Der öffentliche Verkehr stoppt um die Ecke, was eine Brise übertragt. Unser Zimmer war hinter dem Hotel & war daher ziemlich ruhig (kein echtes Verkehrslärm). Insgesamt, guter Preis für Geld

Obwohl das Zimmer nicht groß ist, aber die Lage ist gut, es ist auch eine Haltestelle zur Hauptstraße von Queenstown, Backofen, Mikrowelle, das Kochen ist praktisch, die Hauptstraße von Queenstown ist nicht groß, einen halben Tag, um hier herumzulaufen? eignet sich für weitere Projekte Sie können alle an der Rezeption gebucht werden.

The motel advised that due to the presence of scaffolding, the view from the windows is obscured. That's a minor problem and not really a problem. What the motel did not make any mention of when both booking and checking in, was the fact that major renovations are taking place. This meant that at one point during my stay I returnwd to my room during the day hoping to relax, but discovered that all tne furniture and my belongings had been moved so that drilling, plastering and painting could be carried out. Had I not requested a new room, they would have expected me to sleep in the room with wet plaster or paint. Furthemore, the electric door lock kept failing, leaving me locked out of my room on multiple occasions. The customer service is awful and the planning of major work when guests are staying is thoughtless. The noise of tools and workers is very disruptive.
