A great location with a beyond amazing view. We got to enjoy lakeside views every morning while we ate an amazing breakfast. I recommend adding the breakfast on to your stay. The rooms are comfortable with a phone streaming option available. This was especially nice in the winter since it gets dark so early. The staff is beyond lovely and helpful. A nice touch is the cocktail hour and the coffee hour. It provided a great atmosphere to staying here. I would definitely recommend on your stay in Queenstown!

One of the best hotels we ever stayed!! It was superb in every way! Most elegant and classy room with view! Picture perfect. The bathroom and the room were stunning! Service excellent and the breakfast was a dream - they make sure to spoil you! We loved this luxurious hotel. Spotless clean.

Usually a huge fan of the QT Hotel chain, specifically the QT Melbourne. However, was left a little disappointed with our stay back in February. I am making this review after recently staying in the Melbourne QT, in order to make a comparison. Firstly, the difference in service is abundantly clear, the Rooftop at the QT in Melbourne is vibrant, charming, and the staff are personable, friendly, and always willing to go above and beyond. This same energy was no where to be found during our stay in Queenstown; I understand that their appeared to be a function adjacent to the bar but when you're spending $600+ on a nights stay a little cordiality would have been well received. I am not sure if it was because we were younger in our early 20s that we were disregarded but the environment just felt uninviting and cold. Turning to the good however, a common theme with QT hotels is their exceptional rooms, spotlessly clean, endowed with fresh sheets and a clean cozy atmosphere. We enjoyed the the room greatly and were pleasantly surprised by the meticulous attention to detail. Lastly, I would like to reflect that the disappointment in service does not extend to the reception who were very welcoming and extremely friendly, and were helpful at every step of the way. Unfortunately, it just appeared to be a few hiccups along the way that made the stay feel just a little less welcoming.
