We also booked Mercure Queenstown but cancelled and they have given us a credit against future stay if used before end of August I think. Are you offering the same?

Good overnight stay

Anonymous Couples - 25/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Our room was large and comfortable. We enjoyed a continental breakfast which was good if somewhat pricy at NZ$26. There was nowhere nearby to eat in the evening so we had a pleasant meal in the hotel restaurant.

Situated in the back corner of the Square this hotel is very handy for visiting any of the sights around town (most within walking distance). It's charming facade sets the tone for your visit. It's also right next door to the new Library which is well worth a visit.

Well located and comfortable

Anonymous Couples - 23/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

The rooms were well appointed and comfortable. Check in/out staff were very courteous, helpful and efficient. The only down side of our stay was the very slow and generally not very good service in the restaurant on the Monday evening. The restaurant was not very busy, so I could see no excuse for the poor service. The meal itself was excellent.

A beautiful stay

Anonymous Business - 18/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Lovely room. Small but everything I needed with lots of clever hidden features. Everything I needed and nothing I didnt need. One thing I really notice about this hotel is everything feels clean and well tended. This makes for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Super comfortable bed is a real plus too. ON the downside the fridge was noisy. Why do we still have these in hotel rooms?Its bad for the environment and clutters up the room.

Great location, very central

John B. Business - 18/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL
