Queenstown Park Hotel is a luxury boutique hotel with panoramic alpine views, surrounded by parkland. It is a 5-minute walk to the centre of Queenstown. Free Wi-Fi and parking is available.

The stylish rooms are well-furnished and have kitchenettes. Some rooms have a balcony with views of the Remarkables mountain range. The hotel is eco-friendly. Everything was great! The only thing I found strange was to pay the capuccino with almond milk (it was available the coffe long black from the machine) but I don't like that coffee and I am allergic to the cow's milk that was available. But it's not a big issue.

Just 5 minutes' walk from the waters of Lake Wakatipu, Eichardt's Private Hotel offers accommodation with a fireplace, free Wi-Fi and satellite TV. Guests enjoy a restaurant and a bar. Some accommodation offer a balcony with mountain or lake views. we had been traveling for some weeks when we reached eichardts, so having laundry facilities in our apartment suite were an unexpected bonus. The nice kitchen also gave us the ability to cook some food items which we like without going out to a restaurant. The locaction of eichardts at the waterfront promenade was beautiful and got us close to all the local bars and tours. We were served a liesurly but excellent free breakfast in the eichardts bar. Great and helpful hotel staff. Queenstown on the wharf is so beautiful, dont go to the uphill accomodations
