It was a lovely stay, fantastic location! It was great for our little family. The only thing was the outside light in the hall is on all night and very bright into the kids bedroom which we couldn't shut out enough with the blinds on the window.

It can be said that this hotel is the most satisfying one in my entire trip to New Zealand. The room is so big. You can see the lakeside as soon as you enter. There is a kitchen with utensils, a refrigerator, an oven, etc., suitable for making some simple meals by yourself. The service is very good and you can park for free. We have an RV and they very considerately reserved the two most convenient parking spaces for us outside. The location is the most convenient. It's right next to the steamboat dock. It's only a three-minute walk away. There are many restaurants and shops nearby, and shopping is also very convenient.

The location is very good, with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the lake. The room was clean. Free parking is available at the door.

Went there to celebrate a friends birthday and we had a blust, planning to go with my husband soon because the place is so refreshing. The friendliness from the stuff was unbelievable, they made us feel so welcome and we enjoyed every minute.... Definitely going again

We stayed in Apartment 4 - family of 3 in a 2 bedroom penthouse with kitchen - arrived New Years eve 2023 for a week. All the apartments are different apparently. The location of this property is excellent. Just a stone's throw from the centre of town - 2-3 minute stroll. View was spectacular of the lake and mountains - clear view and no obstructions. Apartment 4 has been recently renovated. It was a spacious and comfortable apartment. Very clean. Carpet in great condition; kitchen well-appointed. Nice comfortable lounge and dining table/chairs. Beds and pillows were comfortable. Shower had great pressure and great heater in the bathroom. Staff were excellent and obliging. Very easy place to stay and no complaints. It's not cheap over the new year period, but nothing in Queenstown is. I recommend this property - apartment 4 anyway. Can't vouch for the other apartments. The big plus for this place is the view from the penthouse apartments - the higher you go, the better it is. Also the proximity to town - perfect. It is on the main road that passes through town, but the bedrooms are back off the road so traffic noise didn't really bother us. Lastly, it has a washing machine and dryer in the apartment which were great. Fridge and microwave. Car park downstairs (locked with code) and also out the front if you have a car. Very pleasant and comfortable stay at this property and we're quite fussy where we stay as a family. We expect everything to be pretty spot on and it was. Apartment 4 has no balcony but has 2 big sliding doors that open the living area right up to the outside breeze. Some apartments do have larger balconies that you can walk onto and sit out there. You should call them and ask to confirm what apartment has a balcony before you book if that's important to you. It didn't worry us at all.

The location is probably the best. Steps away to town area where everything is. Street noise is expected, but bearable. Love that there are laundry racks that we could put out in our living area to dry our laundry. Bedrooms are fairly small but living area is big. Toilets seem recently refurbished. Nice and clean! Overall a great stay!

The apartment is very spacious and with a gorgeous view of Lake Wakatipu, Walter Peak and Queenstown Gardens. It seems newly redecorated with nice carpets, clean painted walls and nice French windows. The heater works well and rooms are quiet. Furnitures are old dated but clean and cozy. Kitchen with full set of equipments is convenient. The guest laundry is in the garage, it costs NZ$4 for washing and another NZ$4 for drying. They offer hang-dry rack, too. Location’s good; supermarket, restaurants and shops are all in 5 to 10-minute walking distance. We stayed there for 6 nights, prices aren’t sweet, but definitely worthy. It’s joyful and truly relaxed. Definitely recommend it. They’re bloody full-booking, just do it as soon as possible.

Having stayed at The Waterfront on previous occasions, we once again enjoyed the amenities of a spacious two bedroom, two bath apartment with lovely views of Lake Wakatipu. The location offered easy access to the shops and eateries of downtown Queenstown and nearby easy walking tracks leading to the historic One Mile Power Station and beyond. Our apartment was nicely appointed and offered upgraded appliances, comfortable and tasteful furnishings, and easy access via the lift. The managerial staff was responsive to all special requests and answered all emails promptly. Manager Bikesh was especially knowledgeable and helpful with getting up settled in and assisting with our departure. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

We had a week at The Waterfront. The location was great however traffic and construction noise was an issue. Beautiful views to the lake and Remarkable mountains was something special. Balcony is very small and only big enough for 2 people to stand on. Room itself was above average but it was starting to show its age. Overall not the best place we have stayed but most certainly not the worst.
