Waikaia Holidays from NZ$637

A large spacious studio room, well equipped. New facility, so lovely bathroom and the washing machine and dryer were a bonus. Large window to enjoy the view of the mountains. Average gym - some hand weights would be a good addition. Location is in airport precinct and near two new shopping centres at Remarkables Park. Easy to drive around and get what you need rather than being in congested and crowded Queenstown.

One of the best hotels in New Zealand. I would give it seven stars. Staff was very accommodating and helpful. Room was spacious and very luxurious. La carte breakfast was excellent. Mini bar was well stocked. It felt like home away from home.

The location is great and the views are excellent BUT this location needs to tell people that there is no elevator. Carrying 2 50lb bags up five floors was not the high point of our trip. Also, internet was interrupted several times a day. We had a clean and comfortable bed but our room was small. Had to put one bag one the kitchen counter and the other across the end table as there was not enough room on the floor.

Another visit at Rendezvous staff member on check in could have been a bit more welcoming. Meal in restaurant was disappointing, but the staff were very accommodating in resolving issue. Room and facilities excellent as usual, bed very comfortable.

This is what you might call an eco-retro motel. We enjoyed the motel vibe and had a great view of the mountains. We also took advantage of the sauna (no charge for those staying at the motel but you need to reserve). The breakfast was also delicious and the restaurant was excellent for dinner. We also appreciated the kitchenette in the room. This motel is just far enough from the city center of Queenstown to be away from the hustle and bustle. I will note that a wedding the night we arrived, with the reception held in the outdoor space adjoining the restaurant (and pretty much across from our room) meant we listened to the wedding singer all evening, but it ended about 9:45. Staff were very helpful when we needed to find a creative parking spot (due to the wedding).
