La Quinta by Wyndham Remarkables Park Queenstown
The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The room was immaculate. Check in and out was very easy with online options to make check in faster. Parking may be an issue of the hotel is fully booked. The front desk staff were helpful finding parking alternatives.

Sherwood Queenstown
Lovely hotel, with great rooms and a very friendly staff. Ideal for having a car and doing trips around Queenstown, but far from the centre. Clean rooms and clean (but very basic) bathroom, but the noise insulation is poor.
