Amazing views

We had room #3A which was the top floor with a large balcony, incredible views of the lake and The Remarkable’s mountain range. We loved Queenstown, great town with lots to do and see. The hotel was super convenient and nicely stocked with everything you need. We had great happy hours on the patio:deck.

8/10 Very good

Good location, very convenient to walk to town centre. It would be nice if there are additional basic items such as salad bowl, non-stick pan and a bottle of diswashing liquid. Otherwise, it is a very nice apartment with good laundry facility.

Amazing views, lovely apartment and everything is within walking distance. Would highly recommend.
Karyn, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved our stay at the waterfront. We were warned about ongoing renovation work on the exterior of the building, but it didn't affect our stay at all. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed. Two bathrooms came in handy. There was a convenience store close by, so we were able to grab the essentials when we arrived. There is free parking, but it's rather tight for SUVs. The staff were all welcoming. The view from the third floor was very nice (2 bedroom apartment). We will stay there again if we return to Queenstown.
KAREN, 5-night trip

Fantastic location- main streets and restaurants at doorstep. Excellently maintained apartment- will return anytime. Good communication.

Excellent Location & Accommodation

Great location and comfortable apartment with stunning views. Two bedroom, one double and one king. Two bathrooms, a kitchen and living room space. Two minute walk to the centre of Queenstown.
Nicholas, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice and big apartment, close walking to all the restaurants and bars. Only downfall being on the first floor is if a van parked outside you lost part of the view other than that if we are in Queenstown again we will definitely be staying at the Waterfront again.
