Kamana Lakehouse
Beautiful property with stunning views from the restaurant and bar area. Dinners and breakfasts were exceptional. We booked a basic room and were upgraded to a room with a view of The Remarkables which was beautiful and extremely comfortable.

Mercure Queenstown Resort
Stunning views, beautiful location although a bit out of town, easy quick drive though. Slow wifi although better if you’re in reception. No smart tv or streaming which was rough with the kids as theois no abc kids or kids channel. Hotel is a bit dated.

Copthorne Hotel & Apartments Queenstown Lakeview
No air conditioning, room was very warm and street noise loud so leaving the window open at night was problematic. We didn’t see that there was a fan in one of the closets until we were leaving which would have been helpful.
