Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Location was excellent and the apartment was roomy with a fully functioning kitchen and a comfortable bed
The door to the apartment was difficult to open and close due to it being stuck.
Clean and cosy
No lift and need to take luggage to upper floor
Great location, easy walk to town
Great location. Had everything you need inside.
Dryer not within room but provided in garage. Only took coins though.
Very handy clean warm
The apartment was well situated and the kitchen well stocked. I particularly enjoyed the selection of tea, coffee and biscuits.
Our stay was lovely. Very convenient location. Friendly helpful staff.
地點很方便,走路可以到市中心。附近有超市。有廚房、洗碗機、洗衣機,只是烘衣機是公用的要另外付錢。 停車很方便。提供面紙,是紐西蘭住宿裡面唯一一個!大讚。
雖然知道皇后鎮住宿很貴,但是旅館空間不大卻要價不低,cp值低了點 有烤箱卻沒有烘培紙。員工回訊息要等一陣子。
Good Position. Great Shower.
Not enough Seating.
Location view and comfy
nothing
Had everything you need including washing machine. Great location. Just a walk to the main centre of 3 minutes Would stay here again
Large rooms
Comfy and very good location.
No lift.
Very close to shops/restaurants and nice views from apartment window
Smaller bedroom than I expected
Washroom didn’t had a lock and the handwash were not filled in.
Location, the washing machine, the kitchen facilities (everything you need for your stay - large fridge, oven and microwave). Spacious and private bedroom away from sofa bed/lounge area, own private balcony.
1..They were asked to make up the sofa bed but didn’t during the entire stay so had to use a blanket from the main bedroom cupboard. 2.. cleaning of the apartment is hit and miss - sometimes we got bins emptied and items (towels/tissues/toilet paper/tea and coffee) replaced - other days we didn’t. There was obvious dirt/dust in the bathroom and near the washing machine. 3.. sometimes noise - other close by apartments partying all night -(directly near the apartment) and road noise in the lounge room.
Location close to town and an easy walk
Very conviniently located, with a short walk to the city center. Great place to stay, we were in a 1 bedroom, perfect for 3 people. Only problem was that there wasn't place to keep your luggage...
The only negative aspect is that there are no elevators from the parking to the higher level apartments
Convenient location. Spacious for a small family. Enjoyed the balcony. Short walk to town/ bus stop
Not enough storage for coats. Some hooks in the hall would be great.
For a ‘budget’ stay the whistler was an okay option. Friendly staff. Quick walk to city center.
We were 4 guests - and one person can sleep on a sleeper couch - which hasn’t been freshly cleaned. Limited mugs for the number of people. Also not enough warm bedding for the freeszing cold. Heater in room was a bit touch and go. Understandably, Queenstown accommodation is more expensive but wouldn’t say the stay was worth the price tag. Next time I’d rather pay a bit more to stay closer to lake with better view.
It was clean and warm ,very comfortable, had everything we needed. Loved the heated bathroom floor. Only 400m to middle of town
Location and price. Clean
Small for five people.
Convenient location, good amenities
No PowerPoints in kitchen, had to unplug fridge to use microwave and boil kettle/use toaster on the floor in the hallway
Fantastic location and great staff. Well equipped with appliances etc
Only one towel per person. Not a spare toilet roll or dishwasher tab. Only one tea towel??
A clean & comfortable stay with everything you need, plus it’s only a short walk to the town centre. We love staying at The Whistler
廚房設備很齊全,雖然有烘衣機可是要付費,要準備兩個$2銅板 離主要觀光景點大概走10-15分鐘,很方便
Location and most of facility
Mild on all window frames and condensation, smelled musty
the room was well appointed, great location, walking distance to the town to all the sightseeing activities.
Location close to town and gondala/luge. View of mountain was good. Use of dryer on site was a bonus. Reception helped with getting bags upstairs. Clean and comfortable.
No real concerns.
The room was well laid out and good for two bedrooms , with a nice little kitchen , the guy at reception was very helpful. Beds were reasonable to sleep on.
We had to have the heat pump on all night as it was very cold (don't think there is any double glazing) equally the outside bedroom next to the road was very noisy, but overall we had a reasonably comfortable night.

Location is perfect. Well equipped kitchen to cook for yourself. Heated floor in bathroom. Lots of heating. Nice balcony. Free parking on site.
The stairs.
Very nice staff, very helpful and super clean! Bathroom floor was heated!!!
A bit pricey? But maybe average for Queenstown.
The property was in the perfect location The rooms were fully equipped with a kitchenette and good heating
Nothing
it was ok
The cleanliness room service was not particular enough. We had inadvertently spilt some granola, cleaned it as best we could (no broom, vacum) , but post house keeping the crumbs were still there !!
The location was perfect, close to town . It was very comfortable and the bedding was very clean
The shower bathroom was not very clean. Had a lot of mould on the near the floor. The windows also had black dirt or mould around it in The lounge. The cutlery could do with an upgrade. Also so the walls do with a paint. The boost was having a carpark which was awesome. We would recommend this property but it certainly needs some TLC.
Close to town. Walk to gondola, ice bar etc. View of gondola, paragliders, etc. Parking onsite which is a plus in Queenstown as there is no parking to be easily found here. Washing machine and fill kitchen was a plus.
Accessibility
Convenience
Handy to town, just walking distance
So close to town. Convenient location
No lifts. Had to cary suitcase up the stairs. Many Outside lights not working so hard to see at night
地理位置非常好,可以走路就到皇后鎮上,住宿附近步行4分鐘有一家超市,衛浴乾濕分離也有洗衣機,有兩個小陽台,可以坐在外面欣賞風景
停車位有點小
Great location
The stairs,dont do if your not up to stairs.
Very nice helpful stuff , appreciate their help with receiving an urgent courier parcel and putting right to my room Made our room warm for arrival , heaters , electric blankets , heated bathroom floor very generous and thoughtful
Someone’s lipstick over cups But as it’s self clean service I can’t blame property , even dishwasher can’t get rid of some lipsticks
The location was fabulous. Once we parked the car we didn’t drive it again until we left. Having cooking facilities was fabulous & it was very well appointed. Having a washing machine was excellent. The heated floor in bathroom & heated towel rail.
Only minor things - globe in bedside light didn’t work. Was replaced as soon as we saw reception. Had to get a plug to fit the kitchen sink. Had to ask for more dishwasher detergent (should be at least enough for length of stay). Bedroom- no natural light.
Well priced for the location. And well equipped and appointed.
A bit noisy from traffic on the main road.
Great position.
Noise from the main road.
Great location, just a 5min walk to the town center. Accomodating staff, they allowed us to park our car for longer than our stay. It’s a self contained apartment with a functional kitchenette, well stocked cutlery and utensils.
The only thing missing was a dryer. A commercial dryer is located at a lower floor but just too much hassle, so we avoided doing laundry completely.
2 bedroom apartment in good location close to the action in Queenstown. Not really set up for 4 adults (ie small sofa and 2 low stools to sit on) Staff helpful in providing basics and allowing late check out and storing our bags.
I had thought there was an ensuite and a bathroom- my mistake.
Great location close to all facilities just a short walk to everything nice and clean and good parking and nice views
Convenient location, but a little noisy.
Mold in the bathroom shower. Fan to remove steam from bathroom inadequate.
Location was amazing. Easy walk into town. Loved the heated towel rack.
Washer for free was great, but should let people know that you need coins for the dryer. Most people do not carry coins anymore.
Location - only a short walk to the centre of Queenstown
Great location, close to town. Very handy to Walters Tavern, The Courthouse, Speights Ale House and Brazz Bar which were teriffic for good traditional style pub meals and couldn't go past Brazz's $10 breakfast. Whistler also very close and handy to main bus hub, 4 square supermarket and fresh choice supermarket. The shower and floor heating in bathroom was amazing. The young guy in reception/office was very helpful too.
Furnishings (eg, couch and tiny chairs at table) while ok, are old and could be 'modernised' for comfort.
Good location, walking distance to shopping centre, gondola and restuarants.quiet.
Room bit small.
The location was great - easy walk into town and back. There was a washing machine in the room and a dryer was available on site if needed - but we were able to use the clothes dryer rack that was provided and our clothes dried quite quickly. The view from our balcony was pretty cool too. Parking was easy and there seemed to be plenty of parking available. The shower itself was one of the better ones on our trip.
Just a heads up - if you get Room 25 - there are stairs - lots and lots of stairs to get to your room! One thing that was frustrating was the body wash in the shower - the pumps on the bottles were not very good and it was frustrating trying to get any out at all - but it did smell great so it was worth the effort.
Had to take luggage up 2 flights of stairs.
It was clean,quiet inside and has great views of the mountain. Walking distance to the heart of town
Excellent location to town to catch tours. Just 15 minutes to walk to town . Clean and the roses smell so nice like my home ! The warm bathroom floor tiles and heated towel tail helps in the morning!
The slope to walk down to carpark .
The location is close to city centre and the gondola.
One thing to note is that the apartment doesn’t have a lift. If you have a lot of luggage, especially heavy ones, it might take a bit of effort to bring them up.
Close to downtown where everything's there. Very convenient. Clean and omfy beds. Nice shower. It is on a busy main road with rapid vehicles noise. However, noise reduced during night time and the sleep will not be bothered.
Close to downtown where everything are there. Sleeping very good.
Noise. A bit dated.
Clean small apartment near town
Apartments are on a busy road -constant road noise made sleeping difficult
Good location
Nil.

Location and facilities
A little run down looking from outside. Difficult to lift case to first floor.No safe.
Great location
Hard Beds, small bedroom. Alot of stairs
It was central extremely clean with everything you needed including parking. Friendly staff and well equipped perfect for visiting Queenstown
Nothing
Clean - and comfortable
No toilet paper - but was rectified. Not much storage for clothes kitchen was great
Mountain views. Comfortable bed. Walking macie but no dryer. Coffee and plunger.
Lots of stairs to lug up bags. Unclear directions to locate the apartment within the complex. Stained living room chair.
Views, easy walk to city centre and lake, soft and firm pillows, bathroom under floor heating
Stairs, no lift, cramped table and chairs, would be squishy if sofa bed is used.
