Great place to stay
brent, 5-night trip

4/10 Fair

If it was real estate it would be called a fixer-upper. Built in the 60s and little done since. Mismatching garage sale furniture, unpredictable hot/cold shower, ancient kitchen, gardens and driveway a mess. Fixtures broken, areas unpainted. Very expensive for what it delivers which is zero luxury for the price. Only wins are the location is and the bed pretty comfy. Staff were fine

2/10 Poor

Not worth your money. Staff lack communication skills - very poor english. Mould in bedroom, no hot water for our stay- went to/ contacted administration multiple times to address the hot water need in winter, to no avail.
Raylene, 2-night trip

Great location and price but cleanliness needs improved.
Susan, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

An older hotel thats been updated right on the lake. Clean, fresh paint, fresh towels, great staff and all this for a fair price right on the lake with a view from every room. A exceptionalvalue.
Barbara, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It has a beautiful view facing the lake through window. You can cook simple food and the shower room is very big. The bedroom is clean and tidy. The price for the room is very reasonable.
Yingyu, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location. Road noise was quite loud and people walking past at all hours. Also curtains pulled having a nap in the arvo and housekeeping bashes on the door then walks in, there was no do not disturb tag to hang on the door
Sharon, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Quick stay in QT

just one night stay. location is great. right in front of the lake wakatipu in QT. A small kitchenette comes handy to cook or warm up food. Water pressure is good. We stayed on the ground floor, so the window in the bathroom is not suitable to be open as motel's workers walk pass through the hallway frequently. No privacy.

I would like to give a huge thanks to the team at this motel. This was a last minute booking, and when I arrived, they told me that they had tried to contact me to advise that they had no rooms. While waiting outside, in the cold, they came and found me to advise that they had a sister site down the road, that they would find a room for me. Turned out to be much bigger and right in the middle of town. Thank you to the team at Lakeside Motel and Lofts Apartments. You saved me.

2/10 Poor

Won't Stay Here Again

Positives - good view of the lake and walking distance to town. Negatives - electric blankets didn’t work, room only had a oil column heater which was not adequate, kitchen was very old but everything did work, replacement towels/face cloth etc were just left inside the door not folded up nicely, I had an adjoining room and could clearly hear the people next door being intimate, loud enough that it woke me up. Worse part is the photos didn’t represent my room.

8/10 Very good

Incredible view at a great price. Balcony was a bonus and eoukd be great in warmer weather. The bathroom was large and immaculatly clean. The kitchen was a bit tired but perfectly functional and there are so many options to eat out or grab a takeaway within easy walking distance it realky wasnt a problem. Perfect location for getting to all the attractions in town. Overall if youre on a budget and want yo spend your money on going places and dling things but would like a nice view and a comfy bed yo return too with no frills then this is the place for you. Late check in by lockbox was easy too. Staff were happy to accommodate this.

Property needs a good clean and paint job. Ice box in fridge desperately needs defrosting.
Yvonne, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The location is excellent- the property itself is very old and rundown, but comfortable. We regarded it like an old Kiwi bach (we are Kiwis) rustic, but comfortable in it's own way. Reasonably priced for Queenstown!

這家汽車旅館老舊，清潔程度不好。 服務態度不好，缺毛巾，問老闆要，他回答說這怎麼可能？ 房間臨大馬路，晚上車輛聲音影響睡眠。
