Disliked: Amenities
They had construction on that they didn’t advise us of so got woken up at 7am most mornings because of the noise. The room wasn’t very clean, mold in shower, kettle and coffee machine, the toilet was also leaking which made quite a bit of noise. We booked mountain view room and had quite high expectations but the window wasn’t very big and the balcony wasn’t even big enough to fit two people comfortably. Parking also was expensive, and wasn’t exactly secure (garage didn’t get locked at night so anyone could walk in from off the street). Staff were friendly and location was good but not worth the money for the room we got.

Pulled the spare blankets from the closet and both were dirty, asked for a replacement. It was clearly visible they hadn’t been laundered in a bit. The front desk was quick to rectify with a clean blanket.

We were greeted by lovely staff who were very attentive. A few suggestions; Staff should be aware of guest movement to time it with room cleans: A coffee pod machine with a milk frother is a must. Many don’t drink black coffee. A decent sized TV is a basic luxury. Breakfast should be available until 10.30. 9.30 finish is far too early for individuals on vacation. A detailed information booklet is required rather than QR codes as internet access is poor. Finally, allow plenty of room between couples and families with children when allocating rooms. Especially when you are not completely booked out as your walls are paper thin. The extended checkout was greatly appreciated along with coffee at the front desk upon request.

Spectacular views of the lake
Well situated place to stay near central Queenstown. The room has spectacular views of the lake. Well equipped kitchen and comfortable lounge area. Would give it a 5 but the bedroom lacked plug points and cupboard space was limited. Otherwise it was great place to stay.

Disgustingly disappointed
An absolute disappointment for the enormous pricing per night in comparison to the facilities and cleanliness of the room. Curtains, blankets, carpets, and sofas were all dirty and stained. They all had terrible smell! No ventilation in the bathrooms. Unfortunately, we only paid for the view, nothing else! The accommodation was already so expensive, they couldn't provide parking? Peppers Queenstown has really put us off all Peppers!!
