Loved everything about our stay. Ingrid and her team made our stay memorable. Having access to free parking, beautiful views, quick walk to downtown, we highly recommend it. If we’re back, we’ll definitely stay again.

We chose this location as we didn’t want to be in the centre of Queenstown but within walkable distance (took us 15-20 minutes). Beautiful property with views of the mountains. The hosts were lovely, leaving us a honeymoon card and present. The food included is more than generous, including eggs and bacon but I did find the portable cooker difficult to use so I think continental breakfasts would be more than sufficient. Lovely decor and room had a washer/dryer which was welcome half way through a 3 week road trip. Beautiful outdoor area too. Allocated parking reserved by suite was appreciated too. Loved our stay here.

A lovely little apartment with beautiful scenery of the mountains and lake. Very cosy and comfortable. Loved the hospitality shown by the owners and the service was top notch.
Did have to walk down some stairs to reach out rooms which was difficult with many luggages but we managed and it was worth it! Parking was sufficient and easy as each room has an allocated lot.
Overall, we really loved and enjoyed our stay there. Unfortunately we would have loved to stay longer but couldn’t. Such an amazing place! 😍

After a month on the road, varying from hostels to motels to hotels, Stay of Queenstown was hands down my favourite stay! The complimentary food in the kitchen was exceptional and I took full advantage! They had information in the room for Indulge mobile massage and I highly recommend booking in when you stay. Owners and staff were all friendly and lovely, the suite was immaculate, all amenities as promised and more. I have to admit, I saw less of the Queenstown area than I intended because it was so nice to stay somewhere I felt truly “at home” for the first time in ages. Many compliments, highly recommend.

We had a wonderful visit at Stay of Queenstown. Our room was clean, modern and had great amenities. The view from our porch was beautiful. And only a short walk into town. Would 100% recommend.
