While it’s located a bit far away from the CBD (~15 mins walk, with slope), the amenities were sufficient, just like a small apartment. Quiet environment, good for resting and sleep. Easy access to a supermarket nearby. The bed was a bit too soft for me. Housekeeping every day. However, there were lots of ants around the bathtub and a spider hanging on the ceiling of the bathroom in an early morning! I informed the reception staff to remark and clean my bathroom asap when they are open (the front desk not open for 24 hours but receptionist reachable by room intercom call). They have dealt with the issue for me and responded quickly. The staff there were helpful and friendly. They helped me to book a local taxi to the airport at early morning (cheaper than uber).
Easy check-in and out process, good location, could actually walk to Cataract George Reserve. Sufficient parking lot. An interesting place to stay with some activity within the hotel premises. The room was a bit too dim, even though they provided several lights, but all were yellow lights. There is noise (water flow?) that would be quite disturbing if you are a light sleeper.

The hotel is conveniently located right in the city center. The hotel is clean, with fresh linens and plenty of restrooms and showers. The staff is helpful. However, I should note that there is no elevator, so lugging luggage up the narrow, steep stairs is quite difficult. The kitchen is small, so it can get crowded if a lot of people are cooking or eating at the same time.
Standard motel, with average facilities and cleanliness. You can park right in front of your room. The room has a balcony facing the road and the sea, offering an expansive view. The town is small and quiet, and the hotel is within walking distance of attractions. However, it's best to book restaurants in advance, as they might be closed if you go late. Drinking water isn't provided, and when I tried to buy some after 9 PM, I couldn't find any open shops in town. If you want to see penguins, it's best to join a tour; it's hard to find them on your own. But the sunset near Lobster Shack is truly beautiful!
The high-end motel built by the lake, the car stops at the door of the room. The furniture is quite new, close to the yacht club, the surrounding scenery is very good, in fact, it is worth staying a few more nights. The reception was warm and I sent sweets when I left, super nice
It was within walking distance to the city center and there was a parking lot, so it was convenient. It's a typical Australian hotel, with a pub on the first floor of the building, which is popular and convenient for people who want to drink. There is a cafe nearby that is open from 6am and the bread was delicious. There was also a Japanese bento shop opposite the hotel.

The motel itself is actually not bad. Based on the reviews, I was expecting it to be worse. But the rooms are fresh and clean.
It lacks air conditioning though. It was cold at night and hot during the day.
Also, a suggestion for the owners – it would be great to have at least a microwave downstairs. Sometimes you just want to heat something up for a quick bite, but...
And there can be issues with parking spots. There aren't many spaces available. It's first-come, first-served.
Amenities: The high-definition TV was great for watching shows, and the capsule coffee machine with complimentary capsules was a perfect touch!
Environment: Pushing open the balcony door, you could see the sea, although it wasn't quite the direct sunrise view I had imagined.
Service: The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful.
Reception couldn’t get in to office as didn’t have her key so had to wait for 30 minutes for the owner to come down to check us in. She said it would be 5-10 minutes before he arrived, after that time passed, she said it would be longer. Wouldn’t give us a dis count when I asked, with owner and receptionist speaking in non English to each other. Under sufferance upgraded to 2 bedroom unit.
I suggested they need to have a spare key kept somewhere.
I had high expectations for this hotel. I could only see Nut from the side on the balcony. The facilities were very average. There was only a small roll of toilet paper. If I had diarrhea, I would be done for. After watching the little penguins in the evening, I couldn't find a place to eat. I was hungry!
Very Good

AAiqinhaixingxingThe room was very nice, the boss was very nice, and he also provided a rich breakfast. It is also very convenient to go to various tourist attractions. It's also very close to the city. The overall feeling of staying here is very relaxing!
MMattyFThe bed was large and very comfortable. The bathroom was very large too. It was all clean. Most guest rooms are in annexes, with reception and dining in the old building (old for Oz, anyway) which boasts a bit of style. Breakfast was quite good but items such as bacon and scrambled eggs did not stay very hot about the buffet. I liked the sourdough. Reception was prompt and professional. Now the minor dislikes: it’s a good 30 minute walk from the CBD / waterfront, up a bit of hill all the way. (There is an area with plenty of bars etc about half way). I walked several times a day and it was OK. Most guests will have cars though. The living area in the room needed a TV. If there can only be one TV per room, it would be better there than in front of the bed in my opinion. Finally, one of the two wardrobes is locked up, presumably to store linen etc. The other only has hanging space so there was no shelving. I felt a little cheated that half of “my” potential wardrobe space was denied to me! On balance, I would consider staying again, even though it is a little way out of town. Overall it is large, clean, comfortable and manages a little style.
SShiElaineIt is a cabin in the national park. The room is very cold when you enter. You need to light a fire for several hours to warm it up. It is too hot to sleep at night. The heating lamp in the toilet is broken and it is very cold to go to the toilet. The bedroom is on the second floor and the toilet is on the first floor next to the door, which is a bit inconvenient. The water from the tap is yellow and it is still yellow after a long time. No bottled water is provided.
SShuk Fun KittyGood location, friendly check in and close to the city, go for nearby restaurant for breakfast in walking distance. Small playground for kids. With electric blanket during winter which is very comfortable.

GGuest UserGreat place, good facilities and clean rooms.
Shout out to the ****** who wake up at 5 am stand around talking and wake everyone up and then start their noisy cars and leave to go to another hotel.
GGuest UserNot bad hotel. But there were no tea bags, no milk. Cutlery looks extremely poor. All was from different set, some from hiking set. Also a lot of dust on the bathroom lights. To fix these problems will cost almost nothing, but it will improve the impression. And the final problem is parking. If you return late, there will be no parking place for you.
GGuest UserIt's located in front of the West Coast Wilderness Railway (Queenstown Station) and at the entrance to the main street of the town. The building seems to have historical value, but it was well maintained and the room was comfortable. The bathroom and toilet are shared, but there are many booths so they were never full. I would like to stay at this hotel again next time.
GGuest UserThe hotel is value for money, ground floor restaurant provide yummy food..The roast pork set is super good 👍.The only con is
No kettle in room. and hotel doesn't provide..
