Hotels With Spa in Otago, New Zealand

Walked out onto the balcony and we were met with these stunning views. The time that we visited (May) meant that it was slightly too cold to be out on the balcony for too long, but the views that we enjoyed out of the window were magnificent. When the first arrived the lady on the front desk was very friendly, and helpful. We had asked for a double bed and had been allocated two single beds. She quickly contacted the ladies from house keeping and they very kindly sprung into action to help rectify the situation. The housekeeping staff were nice and pleasant, and the location was just right for us to get out and about visiting some of the local attractions like the Kiwi birdlife park. The big plus about staying at the highview apartments was having a parking space. When you visit queenstown you'll soon find out that in some places finding a parking space is like gold dust.

Facilities: The resort has complete facilities, a good environment, and a large golf course. The hotel rooms are average, American style. Hygiene: The hygiene of New Zealand hotels is good. Environment: Really good! There are also many foreigners staying here, all of whom come to play golf on vacation. Service: Not bad!

A rare find in central Queenstown with parking! The rooms are spacious and very well-equipped, even featuring a kitchenette and a microwave, making them ideal for families. The only downside is that rooms facing the main road can be quite noisy.

We chose the Hilton again for our trip to Queenstown, New Zealand. While it's not right in the town center, transportation is super convenient. The hotel has its own water taxi that goes to and from the center daily. The first boat leaves at 8:15 AM, and then it's hourly after that. It costs 14 NZD per person and takes about 25 minutes. The last return trip is at 9:45 PM, and there's a timetable available at the front desk. The hotel is also only a ten-minute drive from the airport. The hotel's setting and views are absolutely beautiful, right on the lake. You can take a lovely stroll along the lakeside in the mornings, and the restaurant is right there, so you can enjoy the lake view while you eat. The hotel has a Western restaurant, a bar and restaurant, and a coffee shop. The breakfast buffet is served in the Western restaurant and opens at 6 AM, which is great for guests who want to get an early start on their sightseeing. The food selection is comprehensive and tasty too! We had dinner at the Western restaurant on our first night and it was excellent, the steak was fantastic! The bar and restaurant is also good; on our last day, we got back late from our Milford Sound tour and just ordered pizza and beer at the bar. The pizza was absolutely delicious! The bar atmosphere was great too! We booked a lake view king room, and the layout was nice, with full amenities. The hotel also has a pool, and the gym is open 24 hours. All in all, our stay and dining experience were very comfortable! Highly recommended!

Polite staff and central location in Queenstown ( 5 minutes walk to city center). Amenities include free WiFi, laundry, a garden, hot tub, and bike access. Rooms were cozy but basic. The communal kitchen space was organized and easy to use. The sauna is the reason I will book again when in Queenstown. 🥰

The hotel is a bit out of the way from Queenstown's central area, but not too far – just 4 stops on the No. 1 bus. It's located on a hillside and offers lake views. Our room wasn't very big and had absolutely no view of the lake. The soundproofing was also a bit lacking; we could hear guests walking around upstairs at night. However, the restaurant here was absolutely beyond expectations! It has stunning lake views, and the chef's dishes were seriously on point. Dinner requires advance booking, and by the time we remembered, it was fully booked. We emailed the restaurant two or three days in advance, and they still managed to get us a table for 8:30 PM. Breakfast is à la carte, and both the presentation and taste were excellent.

The hotel was great however for the size and experience they are aiming for and the reputation of being operated by the Hilton, the internet speed is subpar and was below my expectations. A speed test returned speeds of 0.03mbps which is not enough for web browsing. I would have hoped for better internet connection given the price and premium segment this hotel competes in.

The front desk and staff were very polite. We arrived at the hotel at 12:30 PM after a layover from Auckland. Check-in time was 2 PM, but they gave us a room early. However, it was in the old building (I don't think it mentioned new/old rooms when booking), and the facilities were very dated. We later paid an extra NZD 40 to upgrade to a newly renovated room, which was instantly much more comfortable. The room wasn't huge, but the twin room was enough for a family of three. The hotel garden is beautiful, and from the balcony, you can see the lake and the lakeside promenade. The view is unbeatable, and the location is superb.

Parking is convenient and the room is not bad. The front desk is a little beauty from Harbin. The conversion plug we brought was forgotten in the last hotel and borrowed the conversion plug from the front desk. Thank you very much.

Deluxe alpine view room is just a view of some trees, and a glimpse of mountain tops mostly obscured by the roofline of the next room’s balcony, and none of this can be seen from inside the room. The lift only goes to the third floor, and we had to carry all our luggage up the stairs to the fourth floor (staff did offer to assist). Spacious and clean, but very plain and basic, with all the standard equipment you find in any motel room - there is nothing “deluxe” about the room. Adjoining door to the next room had no locks - had to put a chair under the door handle. Presumably the neighbouring guests were equally anxious about this lack of privacy and security. No accessible power outlet next to the bed for charging devices. Had to pull the bedside table away from the wall and lie down on the floor to reach the power outlet behind. No heating in the bathroom, excepted for heated towel rails. Bed had a very soft topper on the mattress which was too soft and saggy, giving no support. One light switch to control the entire room, near the entrance door. No switch near the bed. Overall, the room was very over-priced for such a basic, dated, and unexceptional experience.
