Top Underwater Observatory Hotel Reviews

Millennium Hotel Queenstown

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were fantastic and the hotel is in a great position just a few minutes walk to the lake. We enjoyed the good sized room with very nice bathroom and the breakfast buffet was very good. It was my daughter’s birthday, the hotel provided her a food platter and a card. We’ll definitely keep this hotel top of the list for our next visit to Queenstown"

QT Queenstown

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is about attention to detail and they nail it. The staff is incredible. They take a pride in making your trip special. Coffee, fresh juice and pastries in the morning. Wine and cheese for happy hour. Whiskey and chocolate in the evening. Turndown service. 5 min walk to the heart of town. Stunning views. Great bar/restaurant on site. Really just above an beyond"

Pinewood Queenstown

10/10 Excellent

"My sister and I shared Spike 1 and 2, which was perfect for being in Queenstown for 4 nights. It's a really nice unit, and it had everything we needed, and it was easy enough to keep the place warm (which is not a given in NZ in July). It was close enough to downtown that we just walked there. We really loved our time there. The only downside is that the WiFi kept dropping, and there was a morning where it just wasn't working, so this might not be the best option for someone who needs a reliable internet connection."

Rendezvous Heritage Hotel Queenstown

10/10 Excellent

"We always love going to the Heritage. Great views and just far enough out of town to get away from the crowds but not that far to get back into town in 5 minutes. Staff were excellent and helpful. Rooms are very comfortable. Beds are comfortable too. However rooms could be cleaned earlier and before the late afternoon. There was one day our room was completely forgotten, despite us telling them we were leaving our room in the morning. I think there may have been a shortage of cleaners this time. They did do their best though. Not complaining. Restaurant and bar staff are excellent. We will definitely book there again."
