Its location in central Queenstown is superb. The one thing that can be improved was in the bathroom. it would be great to have a lowlight sensor light in the bathroom so that you don't have to turn the full lights on in the middle of the night.

Was disappointed that the restaurant was closed for dinner the whole time we were there. Can understand impacts of staff shortages but there were also very limited room service options available when we got there, then nothing was available at all at the end of the week. Part of the reason I chose this hotel was for the in-house dining/room service as my companion is unable to eat at restaurants due to anxiety. Also didn’t appreciate room- service trying to clean my room at 9am. Not ever had that experience before in any other hotel ever … a bit cheeky and intrusive. Location made up for negatives - just - but would choose somewhere different next time.
