Minus 5 ICE BAR - Queenstown’s Original Ice Bar Experience
"The hotels sits within a busy shopping area of five mile area. Parking was easy. Checking in was easy. They do keep $100 when you check in and it is returned to you at checkout. Overall it was a nice place to stay. New and modern"
"Room was clean and amenities were good. It was nice that the hotel was adjacent to the bus stop for an easy commute to the airport or Queenstown shops."
"Great views of mountains and lake, with small view obstruction from main lobby. Front desk personnel were very helpful and kind. Breakfast was delicious. Rooms were spacious with decent amenities provided."
"Our stay was spectacular! This place is beautiful! Super friendly staff. Great location! We did not want to leave. The views were the best! Perfection!"
"This hotel was just okay, not great, but not bad either. The location was good for us as it was super close to the airport and we had a very early morning flight out of ZQN. We had a couple of rooms booked for our family but ended up having to ask reception to switch one of the rooms because it smelled really funky. Otherwise the stay was just fine. VIP rewards perk was a cookie and a drink from the little market in the lobby. Nice receptionist!"
