Absolutely fabulous
Pros:

Location was excellent. Room and view just perfect. We were in Room 619 and would love that every time we stay or one on the lake. We booked late so understand we got one of the last rooms but appreciated what we got. We normally stay at the Novatel but this exceeds that hotel.

Cons:

Nothing

Magical Queenstown
Pros:

I absolutely loved my stay at the Crowne Plaza Queenstown. From the moment I arrived, everything was wonderful. The location is simply perfect right in the heart of Queenstown, close to the lake, restaurants, bars, shops and everything you could possibly need.

The hotel was beautiful, comfortable and welcoming, and the staff were fantastic. The buffet breakfast is a must at the Threessixy bar and restaurant. Nothing was ever too much trouble. I loved being able to step outside and have stunning Queenstown right on my doorstep.

Queenstown completely stole my heart, and staying at the Crowne Plaza made my trip even more special. Even with the freezing winter temperatures, I loved every minute , even with the freezing winter temperatures , I loved every minutes especially enjoying a wine (and a few divine mulled wines!) after a day exploring.

I honestly couldn’t fault my stay. I would absolutely stay at the Crowne Plaza again and am already dreaming about my next trip back to beautiful Queenstown.

10/10 wonderful hotel, unbeatable location and an unforgettable stay. Highly recommend! ❤️
