Clara L. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

We hired a car to drive down to Queenstown only to find out there are no on-site parking available that day/night, and if there were it was only valet parking at $50 NZD a day. We drove around town and street parking was limited and expensive. Luckily we found one and paid $6.50 an hour (free 6pm - 9am next day). The next day the hotel had an available on-site car park fortunately. I would suggest the ability to book a car park at the time of hotel room booking. The staff at front desk were friendly and helpful, and spoke many languages. However as a gold member I did not get a room upgrade, could be due to availability? Also did not get a chocolate or a welcome gift in the room. The bathroom was a bit run down. Suggest to NOT use curtains as they can get mouldy and it's not hygienic.

Dear Clara Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback with us. We appreciate you highlighting both the positive and challenging aspects of your stay. We’re pleased to hear that you found our location convenient and that our front desk team were friendly, helpful, and able to assist in multiple languages. I’m sorry for the frustration you experienced with parking during your first night. On-site valet parking is limited and subject to availability, which can unfortunately mean spaces are not always available on busy days. We appreciate your suggestion about being able to reserve parking at the time of booking, and this feedback has been noted. We’re also glad you were able to secure street parking and that on-site parking was available for you the following day. Thank you as well for your comments about the bathroom condition and the use of shower curtains. Your feedback has been shared with the relevant teams, as it helps guide future improvements. We value your loyalty and your honest feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide an improved experience in the future. Sincerely, Guest Relations Team, Novotel Queenstown Lakeside

My wife and I had flown in from Melbourne and stayed at Novotel. It is very centrally located in Queenstown, very near downtown and lots of shops, and yet, it did seem like it was in a relatively quiet area of town. It took about 5 minutes to get to the heart of shopping centers, restaurants, and cruise ships. Room seemed so nice and clean. Not that we used it, but we were surprised that there was a bathtub - first one after 15 days in Australia! And ... a first for us: Heated towel rack! Oooh, on a cold day or after a shower, it feels so good against the skin! One item that is missing are electrical outlets near the beds - they're across the room! Why doesn't a hotel place electrical outlets by each bedside? Another problem: if you are using an electrical converter, many of the outlets are very close to the "On/Off" button, so if you push the converter too high and/or high, it's turned off! You'd think that the "On/Off" button would be positioned higher so the electrical converter would affect it, Breakfast was about 'normal' for hotel - nothing unusual or outstanding. Service people were very friendly and helpful.

Kia Ora Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re very pleased to hear that our central location suited your visit and that you enjoyed the comfort of your room, including features like the bathtub and heated towel rack — they’re favourites for many guests, especially on cooler days. We also appreciate your helpful comments regarding electrical outlets. Having bedside access is important for convenience, and your notes about the placement and interaction with converters are valuable as we continue reviewing room features and improvements. It’s lovely to hear that our team made a positive impression with their friendly and helpful service. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience, and we hope to welcome you back on your next visit to Queenstown. Sincerely, Guest Relations Team Novotel Queenstown Lakeside

Yujie T. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Rude receptionist, couldn’t check into the room even after 2pm, and room was noisy can hear the sound from streets; breakfasts is average, try avoid and there are lots cafes nearby, not worth the value.

Dear Yujie Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about the experience you had during your stay, particularly at check-in. You should always feel welcomed and supported on arrival, and we apologize that this was not the case. We also regret that the room was affected by noise from the street and that breakfast did not meet your expectations. Your comments are important to us, and we appreciate you taking the time to let us know. If you would like to discuss your experience in more detail, please feel free to contact me directly at Tr… .
