The staff were very friendly and helpful during our recent stay. I have actually stayed at this Crowne Plaza many times over the years and I will stay again.

We loved the hotel, But we’re very frustrated about the difficulty and communicating with the concierge. He tried really hard, but his English was not great and not only with us directly, but with the people he called for us on the phone it was difficult to understand him.

Best location! Breakfast was soooo good and the service was super friendly. The restaurant has amazing views and menu is very affordable. The pizzas are delicious.
There was a rainy day during our stay but the staff was quick to suggest indoor activities to entertain kids and adults. 10/10

Everyone we came into contact with was just wonderful and very helpful. The breakfast was really nice and we came in late on evening and had pizza in the dining room that was really good. We had a great stay. My only negative was how cold it was everywhere in the hotel. 18 degrees according to my phone. We had to have a heater brought to our room.
Also the 2 guys at the concierge counter were excellent. We had 2 bookings cancel due to weather and they were great at helping us with new arrangements.

The location of the hotel was outstanding, within easy walking of major attractions. The views from the room were incredible, and I loved having a generous-sized balcony to enjoy it from. The breakfast had an excellent selection, and the staff were lovely. Despite these strengths, however, the room itself was a disappointment. While it was a generous size with a comfortable bed, the room fixtures/decor felt cheap and desperately needed updating. The bathroom in particular felt old - the porcelain of the sink had numerous cracks, the tile was mouldy, etc. The room wasn't the standard I expected from a Crowne Plaza, particularly given the price point. That being said, you can't beat the location and view!

Our stay was absolutely wonderful. Our check in process was so easy and friendly, breakfast was delicious, housekeeping was perfect, all the staff were so helpful, and the hot chocolates in the lobby were an absolute hit with our ten year old (as was the welcome pack she received). Location was incredible - just metres from town, a bus stop right at the door, lake across the road for incredible views, and the main ski bus station only around 100m away. It was wonderful to stay in a hotel which valued customer service – something that seems to be a rare extra these days. Would absolutely recommend and would definitely stay here again.

A great spot in Queenstown, our family felt welcome and enjoyed the hot chocolate in the foyer after coming inside from the cold.
The buffet breakfast included in the price was worth it, a great selection. The staff were friendly, and accommodating to our families needs when asked.
Room was comfortable for a family of 4 with a 6 year and 1 year old.
Overall we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.
