Top Drift Bay Hotel Reviews

Ramada by Wyndham Queenstown Central

Garden Court Suites And Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Great service and amazing room with a view"

Rendezvous Heritage Hotel Queenstown

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful location with plenty of nice hangout spaces and a fire in the reception area as well as in the bar/ restaurant. The lake with snowcapped mountains in the background is a stunning backdrop. The breakfast was exceptional but dinner not as much. We got a family suite with 2 bedrooms, a living area, and kitchen and it was just right. Hot tub wasn't very hot and was right under a very bright neon light- so not a great atmosphere there. But otherwise we really enjoyed this hotel. Maybe a bit expensive for what it is and parking was $15/ day, but would definitely consider staying again"

Pinewood Queenstown

8/10 Good

"Small but neat and fine for one night. Easy to walk into Queenstown & bed comfortable. Pretty small room & tiny shared toilet downstairs and tiny shared shower outside our room upstairs but price was good for Queenstown so all good."

Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly helpful staff great room incredible views"
