Categories

Cleanliness
6.8
Mixed comments: several guests said rooms were clean and housekeeping was good, but there are notable cleanliness issues reported (black curly hair in bed, nose pickings in sheets, mould in bath, tired carpet) indicating inconsistent standards.
Service
8.3
Mixed-to-positive: multiple reviewers praised friendly and helpful staff (including after-hours help), though there were service failures (no staff in restaurant at times, courier mishandling, language/communication issues at reception). Overall staff responsiveness is a relative strength despite some lapses.
Location
9
Strong positive: repeatedly noted as conveniently close to Queenstown/Arrowtown, opposite the onsen and good for skiers; some find it a little far from town if not skiing, but location is a clear selling point.
Room Quality
5.5
Below average: multiple functional problems reported (very low shower pressure, heater breaking and being inadequate/noisy, leaking toilet, slipping showers, mould in bath, dated/tired rooms, limited/poor TV). Bed comfort had some positive notes but overall room condition needs refurbishment.
Amenities
8.5
Generally positive: family-friendly amenities (bowling alley was repeatedly praised, on-site parking available, dog friendly, free bowling offered in some cases). Some amenity shortfalls noted (no kitchenette in family rooms, paid parking).
Value for Money
7.5
Mixed: guests appreciated perks like comfy beds, free bowling and convenient location, but many felt the property is dated and that breakfast/TV/room issues reduced perceived value.
Food and Beverage
6
Below average: several complaints about breakfast quality (below average buffet, cold breakfast served in a chilly bowling hall, complaints about re-served food), indicating food & beverage is a weak area.
Overall Experience
9.2
Overall impressions are positive despite issues: many guests said they would stay again, enjoyed the snow/onsen proximity and bowling, and found staff helpful. The positive experiences and amenities tend to outweigh the service/room shortcomings for many visitors.

Pros:

Nice, quiet place if you don't need to be in Queenstown centre every day. Big room, good heating. Very convenient for Coronet Peak. Bus-stop right outside and across the road, for buses up to CP and down to Queenstown centre. Food opposite at Gantley's is very good. Small grocery store nearby. Resort's own food is also good.

Cons:

Nothing

A well located hotel, but could do with some renovation.
Pros:

Good location for events in Arthur’s Point

Cons:

Hotel is in need of a good upgrade. Our room had black mould around the window area, and there was water lying underneath the sponge cushion on the window seat

Super friendly and helpful staff. Decent location and paid parking was convenient, but rooms (especially the bed) needs
Pros:

It was opposite the onsen, but also around 15-20 minutes drive to Queenstown and Arrowtown.

Cons:

The heater broke on the second night so it was freezing cold. We were given a small portable radiator heater but it didn’t have enough power to heat up the entire room. I also found a black curly hair in the bed (neither me or my partner have black curly hair) as well as nose pickings in the sheets.

Wasn’t long enough, the snow was a bonus staying up there. Just stunning
Pros:

Stunning in the winter with the ONSEN straight across the road from the resort was a bonus.

The bowling alley for the kids, superb

Cons:

The motel needs to up its game and improve its service.
Pros:

The room was clean. The service for cleaning was good. Made up beds, tidied room and cleaned bathroom and provided clean towels.
Breakfast was ok.

Cons:

I hated the shower over the bath. The phone did not work and had to get maintenance, but failed a number of times. I had a courier addressed to the Hotel with my name. According to the courier they came and the staff did not know the name ( my name registered there) and it was taken back to their deport. It was my medication. Staff should of checked my room number. By the time I found my courier I had it sent back to my home address. Very inconvenient, I was not happy.
Talking to the staff (reception) and lack of understanding English was a problem. At times I felt like I was the problem.
Breakfast. I was not impressed that yesterdays breakfast was offered.
The TV only had one channel. Maintenance could not fix. Ummm we had to watch the games on our phones. I was not happy.
