We are sorry that you feel this way about your stay. Our Superior room category does not feature a view of the lake, which is what it sounds like you booked. Our Lakeview and Executive rooms feature beautiful views of the lake.
Kind regards,

3 out of 5
Booked the 1 bedroom superior apartment expecting lake view according to photos. However, when we checked in the view was blocked by the other building in front as they gave us the room on the bottom floor. After complaining to the reception staff, they offered an upgrade for extra $60NZD which was okay. However, the whole process took over 1 hour (just to change rooms!). That night, we asked for bathrobe and bowls (which were not in the room). We were told it should be around 20 minutes but did not receive it until 45 minutes after.. This hotel is definitely not worth the price you pay.

Thank you for your review.
Please note that you booked a Superior Apartment which does not guarantee Lake and Mountain views. We offer all guests a choice to book either a lake view or superior room type. It is good to hear the team offered a solution to upgrade. All our apartments are fully furnished including fully stocked kitchenettes as well as bathrobes.

The Hotel apartment was modern, well maintained and serviced and offers uninterrupted views of the lake. The Hotel staff are friendly, professional, and will go above and beyond to ensure your needs are catered for. A free shuttle is also available for drop off and pick up to and from the heart of Queenstown city

It was disappointing, for the price per night and ‘luxury’ brand, to be placed in a room with construction next door, being right next to the car park driveway that ran down the entire side of the room then wrapped around the front, and limited privacy due to people walking down the driveway needing the blinds to be drawn constantly. While the management offered to move us on the second day, we were only staying two nights, and they shouldn’t have put us there in the first place when they clearly had other options available. I particularly chose this property to be out of the main township, to enjoy a peaceful two days - instead got a construction site and a car park ramp. Not the experience I thought I was paying for.
