Alpen View Villa is a magnificent place to stay. The view is spectacular, the house is perfectly laid out and beautifully appointed. A seamless arrival, everything worked fine. Will definitely stay here again.
Stayed 7 nights at the Alpen Views Queenstown Hill during July 22 and has an awesome experience. Our property manager was very friendly. Communication was excellent and the property ticked all the boxes for a adult / teenage ski family. We have been coming to Queenstown every July for 10 years typically staying at an apartment hotel but this was awesome. Four large bedrooms, ample bathrooms, great kitchen and living plus huge deck with town and lake views. We’ll be back !!!
Amazing views to wake up and come home to. We had 3 couples and a one year old and the facilities were all there. We stayed 10 nights and it was good to have a few home cooked meals instead of trying to find somewhere to eat every night ( which can be difficult).
The property is elevated and we drove in and out of town (literally 2 minutes) but there are plenty of places to park in the city fringes. Alternatively an $8 can.
I've been to Queenstown many times and the best accommodation I've been in, ideal for 6-8 people.
Margaret and the team are friendly on call and available anytime.
I rarely write reviews unless they are really good or really bad. It's a yes from me 5*
