Peter M. Friends - 8/18/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

We had a two bedroom two bathroom deluxe suite with a view. The view was amazing over the lake and mountains of Queenstown. Beds were comfortable but the interior was in need of an update and did have some water damage on the hard floors - front reception also smelt a bit damp. Despite this the front staff were lovely and we had free drinks as well as a bottle of wine on delivery due to our Accor explorer card entitlements. We made use of the lovely St Moritz next door to had breakfast Overall a good stay
