We had the best view ,was quiet ,fully equipped kitchen & the 3rd bedroom seems to be a mini suite with extra table and coffee machine good for an extra couple . The general property is showing its age but we used bbq and parked in the street so no extra charge . Reception were friendly welcoming and recognised my Gold Accor status with a bottle of wine . Units serviced daily also

Ross W. Families - 5/13/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

Was a great stay we had booked into a 2 bedroom apartment but when we checked in it was located in the bottom floor near the road. We asked to be moved to a higher floor with a better view which was not a problem the next day we were moved to an amazing room with view to match. The manager went above and beyond to accommodate us! Very happy with our stay. Staff were lovely and super helpful.

Dear Ross, Thank you for sharing your experience at Peppers Beacon Queenstown. We are delighted to hear that you found your stay comfortable and clean. It is wonderful to know that our team was able to assist you in relocating to a room that better suited your preferences, and that you enjoyed the stunning views.

We look forward to welcoming you back for another enjoyable stay in the future. Best wishes, Mareile Jerosch-Hoehn General Manager

Really enjoyed ourselves, room was spotless, location is very walkable into town in about 5mins but if you really need it parking is available on the street or with Peppers. The team was excellent on arrival and throughout our stay and the views from our 2nd floor room were spectacular across the lake.

Dear David, Thank you for your kind words regarding your recent stay. We are delighted that you enjoyed the excellent location, stunning views, and the service provided by our team. It is always rewarding to hear that our guests appreciate the cleanliness and accessibility of our facilities. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Best regards, Peppers Beacon Queenstown
