disappointed as we have been regular visitors to peppers over 15 years and requested unit 804 for my wifes 50th. instead we were allocated a ground floor unit. i understand that peppers cannot alllocate requested units but instead of the best apartment we got the worst apartment and it was a long term stay 9 nights.

We had a 3 and 2 bedroom lakefront apartment for a family holiday and the Peppers Apartments were perfect. Have stayed there a few times now and will return again. It is in a great location with a short flat walk to the city (no hills!). Stunning view of the lake from the apartment and very spacious. Accidentally left something valuable in the room after check out and the Peppers team helped return it to us back in Auckland which was much appreciated.

Extremely Disappointing First Stay at Peppers Beacon Queenstown As loyal Accor and Accor Vacation Club members for almost 20 years, we have come to expect a certain standard when booking accommodation under the Accor brand. Unfortunately, our first experience at Peppers Beacon Queenstown fell significantly below those expectations. This was our fifth visit to Queenstown, and we have also stayed regularly in Wānaka, so we are familiar with accommodation throughout the region. Our initial room was, quite frankly, in an appalling condition. The balcony was dirty, with cigarette butts left outside. It was shared with the adjoining apartment, with only one small table and two chairs between both rooms. Privacy was virtually nonexistent, as neighbouring guests could walk directly past our windows, making it uncomfortable to leave the curtains open. Inside, the lounge and only dining chair were badly worn and sagging. The walls were covered in black marks, and the bathroom had cracked tiles, missing grout and loose, hollow-sounding floor and shower tiles. There were holes where a towel rail appeared to have been removed, yet nowhere appropriate to hang towels. There wasn't even a luggage rack for our suitcase. The soundproofing was equally disappointing. We could clearly hear ordinary conversations from adjoining rooms. At approximately 1am, three people arrived and rang our doorbell before trying the neighbouring room. Combined with the poor sound insulation, this resulted in an almost sleepless first night. Credit where credit is due: The receptionist who assisted us the following morning was professional and helpful, arranging for us to move to another room. The replacement was significantly better maintained and much closer to our expectations, although the coffee machine leaked badly. We were advised that some apartments are privately owned. While that may explain variations in maintenance, it should not be the guest's concern. We didn't book a privately owned apartment — we booked Peppers. When accommodation is marketed and sold under the Peppers and Accor brands, guests should reasonably expect a consistent minimum standard, regardless of individual ownership. I have since read management responses to other guest reviews acknowledging that parts of the property require refurbishment. While improvements are welcome, it raises the question: If management is already aware of these issues, why are rooms in such poor condition still being offered at Peppers rates? There is a significant difference between accommodation that is simply dated and accommodation that is poorly maintained. Our original room was unquestionably the latter. For the price charged, it represented extremely poor value. We subsequently chose to finish our Queenstown stay at Hotel St Moritz MGallery, another Accor property, where the contrast was remarkable. The quality of the accommodation, facilities and genuinely welcoming staff reminded us of the standards we have appreciated from Accor for almost two decades. I believe these concerns deserve attention beyond a public review. After five visits to Queenstown and nearly 20 years of loyalty to Accor and Accor Vacation Club, this was certainly not the experience we anticipated from our first stay at Peppers Beacon. A great location does not compensate for poorly maintained accommodation. Ultimately, the condition of these apartments reflects directly on Peppers and Accor, regardless of who owns them. Until there is greater consistency in accommodation standards, we would be extremely hesitant to recommend Peppers Beacon or stay again. A particularly disappointing experience from a brand we have supported and trusted for so many years.

We do have a significant repair and refurbishment programme planned for later this year.

This property is an apartment-style hotel, mostly with two-bedroom or three-bedroom units. If you’re staying alone, you may be assigned a room at either end of the corridor, and these rooms are connecting rooms adjacent to the next unit. Rooms on the far right side of the hotel suffer from loud noise, likely from ventilation fans or equipment of the neighboring hotel. That said, the front desk staff were very helpful. They moved me to a different room the next day and even gave me a complimentary coffee.

I booked two nights, through my Accor ap as I am a member. A week later I decided to extend the stay by a day. I had a free cancelation opportunity to cancel my first 2 day booking and just rebook as a 3 day stay. I rang the number of the property from the Accor ap and spoke with a very helpful person who said, don't cancel, just go in through the ap and book the additional night and I will pick it up this end and turn it into one booking. Only problem she didn't. On arrival we were told it was two separate bookings, and we would have to change rooms and have no room available on the day of the change- checkout 10am and they would prioritise getting us into a new room before 2pm (which they did-and they also relocated our luggage). this was really annoying for a three-day trip to have to pack again, empty a fridge of drinks, diabetes medication milk etc and re set up. Issue two- the place is so run down and tired, the light in our first rooms bathroom flickered so hard it caused our eyes to go weird (we were told yes, it is getting a reno the day you move out), the room was very small and part of a larger room that was able to lock off a room to create two different booking rooms. Our neighbors were right behind a door with coughing, screaming, crying kids all night. They may as well been in our room. The second night the same. We were told, don't worry your last night's accommodation has no neighbors so you will get a good night's sleep, not to be located next to a plant room that whirred all night. The shower was broken so the shower rose held to be used held in one hand. I know a reno is imminent, in fact started the last day we were there and why we were chucked out of our original room (not another booking), but if a light is stuffed, fix it. We paid $430 a might for really substandard accommodation, terrible nights sleeps and a real inconvenience. I travel a lot for work and sometimes I have had better in a $120 motel in a reginal town. Asked for a bowl and spoon, took so long to get it, our friends staying in the dame place hardly even got housekeeping or a change of towels. Servicing of room should mean towels, made bed and glasses, mugs that are used washed or replaced so we don't have to reuse a wine glass for a juice glass because they were left dirty. Most of the staff on duty, especially the man at the end were trying to be super helpful, gave us a bottle of wine (which we gave back). It really leaves a bitter taste in our mouths, we always try to book Accor sites but this one a total let down- best thing about it is the location to town.

A well located apartment, it was like stepping back to the 1980 when we entered. A hifi with a CD and cassette player! And worn carpets, bathrooms and furnishings to match the era. Badly in need of an update - in fact they were updating the apartment above which added a lovely thumping soundtrack to the daytime downtime at the unit.

My family and I attended Peppers Beacon Queenstown late last month, while the room and view were amazing. I found the customer service to be poor. When we arrived the gentleman at the counter, while lovely, could not clearly understand us. Despite being a Platinum members and booking over 6 months ago with the option of breakfast, we had to fight to get Breakfast, our fireplace did not originally work the toilet leaked (by that time I did not worry about reporting it),. If I had my time again I would not have stayed here.

As a platinum member we placed into an all ability (disabled) facilities; toilet smelt unbearable for the 4 nights. Having no access to food hindered the stay; and car parking costs were excessive compared to other Accor hotels. We also had to go to reception 4 times as our key kept not working!!!!!!!! Staff were friendly and location is great

I expected a lot more when booking with the Peppers brand. Other than how well located this was everything else was below standard and disappointing. The room we had booked has broken amenities and cabinetary, known issues with the door to balcony which meant this could not be accessed which is a huge deal with young kids and needing space also the unit for excessively hot and with windows only able to open a small but this was grossly uncomfortable. Half PowerPoints in the unit were not working and it was very averagely maintained overall with cleanliness of the unit. Half laundry facilities available to guests were out of order.

Made a reservation the day before arrival. Revived confirmation email. When we arrived the desk agent informed us our reservation had been cancelled but the hotel home office. No explanation. Thank goodness the room was still available and we had a great front desk person to help us. Once in the room the walls were beat up with black marks all over. Carpet stained in every room. On a plus side the room Was very spacious. Parking garage was a mess and people. Pupils figure out how to park between lines.

Have stayed here many times and return due to the convenience and the views. However, it is decidedly 3 star quality with mould in bathrooms, dated furniture (& condition). Price is for space, view and convenience but honestly would love if they got a makeover. Be warned - 2nd bedroom in the 2 bedroom apartments do not have an external window and there is no ventilation. Very stuffy.
