3-Star Hotels in Otago, New Zealand

When I arrived early about 12 plus and plan to put my luggage with hotel as I know is too early for check-in. Hotel receptionist told me that I can do all the paperwork first and I have requested high floor. And it was committed that I will have high floor. When I back to hotel 3 plus, I was given 1st floor (fyi. the first-floor means go down 2 floors) and I was told by another receptionist no chance all taken and there was no note regards to my request.

The lady staff at the front desk was very helpful. She went out of her way to accommodate my family checking in a couple of hours early. She also made available a two queen bed room so that my teenage daughters didn't have to share a bed. The breakfast buffet delicious and worth the buck. Thank you Kingsgate Hotel staff for ur wonderful service.

Convenient Location, but Shared Kitchen Needs Improvement The room was quite small, but comfortable and had everything we needed for a short stay. However, the shared kitchen on the 1st floor was small and often messy. Many guests prepared their meals there and brought them upstairs to eat at 4th floor share space, but unfortunately left the kitchen in poor condition. It was consistently untidy throughout our stay. The hotel is in a great location—right in the CBD and within walking distance to many attractions, shops, and restaurants. There’s no free parking on-site, but there’s a paid public parking lot just across the street. The rate is NZD 3.5 per hour, with free parking available from 6 PM to 8 AM.

Stayed here for two days in a row. The location is very good. I chose it because the introduction said there is free parking. Currently, this youth hostel has 3-4 parking spaces in front of the door, first come first served. Otherwise, you need to go to Hamilton Road to find one (which is often full). You need to bring your own shower gel and shampoo, which is not very convenient. Other than that, I can give it a very high score. The youth hostel has cooperation discount codes with some attractions, you can ask the front desk to get them. If you are traveling alone, I still recommend them.

Nice and clean room with basic amenities. As it's a hotel, there's no kitchen or microwave inside the room. There is a non-smart TV in the room but its response is very slow, we couldn't enjoy anything on the TV. There is no elevator for this 3 storey hotel, which is a negative factor if one has to carry heavy luggage to an upper floor. Moreover, though parking is available, as it's not next to the door, the luggauges have to be dragged over a gravel (or floored with small rocks) driveway. There is not much to do around the place, besides we couldn't find any gasoline stand or supermarket around here. Queenstown is only 10-15mins drive, so stay here and drive to Queenstown for main activities. Overall, a bit overpriced compared to location and facilities. We will consider staying again if necessary but will certainly look for other options if available.

This was my second time staying here, and it was just as good as the first. The chalet was different from my previous stay, but the quality remained excellent—clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The experience was just as enjoyable, proving that this place is consistently reliable. Will definitely return again!

Go to Omalu to see the penguins, a motel found on Trip.com , just on the roadside, there is a parking lot, very convenient, the room is fully equipped, clean and tidy, ten minutes drive from the penguin landing and returning to the center, good, the price is also right.

I originally booked a hotel at random, but unexpectedly, it was surprisingly good! I wanted to book a hotel in Wanaka, but they were all fully booked, so I settled on the Cardrona Hotel between Wanaka and Queenstown! After arriving, I found it on the side of the highway, which was quite disappointing, but! I was shocked when I entered the hotel! There are restaurants and bars in the hotel, all with very retro decoration. Later I learned that the hotel has a history of more than 150 years! The garden behind the hotel is particularly beautiful! Recommended!

A very nice, clean furnished house with kitchen diner,leading to a small garden.There is also a down stairs loo. Upstairs has two bedrooms with double beds & a very nice bathroom with loo & shower.The place is very peaceful for a good night's sleep, provided you keep the windows shut. Both upstairs & downstairs has air conditioning. A very nice cafe is situated across the road & it's a five minute drive to Wanaka. The staff were very nice & friendly.We will definitely stay there again.

After a strenuous ****** Valley Trail walk on Mt. Cook, a good choice for a break before heading to Queenstown on the next day. The room layout is good and the kitchen facilities are adequate. No handheld shower in the bathroom is the only drawback.
