“Cosy, comfy, affordable and friendly...”

Just returned from a long weekend stay here in pretty disgusting winter weather, although our time spent in the lodge was unfailingly warm, comfy and cosy! Very friendly reception from the magnificant Ruby with nothing too much trouble and everything explained clearly including a guided tour of the extensive premises. Room and lodge perhaps just beginning to show a little... More

“Very Cosy!”

Reviewed June 9, 2013 via mobile

This place was a last minute change and I'm glad we went. So cosy!! Breakfast was awesome, the rooms were nice and clean, very nice view! It was a shame we only stayed there a night, would definetly stay there again if we went to Queenstown.

Hi Antonetta, thanks for your glowing review. You summed us up for winter in a nut shell! The rooms are warm, clean and have everything you need for winter. Please tell your friends and come for a ski! Thanks Matt and crew. More

“Cosy, quiet and a right delight!”

Reviewed June 3, 2013

We had scored ourselves a grabone deal, meaning we stayed for half price at the lodge but I'd happily pay full price to stay there again. The room was modern, cosy and it was a real treat having a king sized bed, kitchenette and sofa also in the room. Being a few minutes out of town was nice and peaceful... More

Hi Tahzan, thanks for your review, yes we are a bit different from the rest. Our rates for a start are $98 for a double, which is great value for money! As you mentioned we have great facilities to do your own cooking and a quiet nights sleep with our location just out of town. Nothing like us in Queenstown,... More

“Awesome value”

Reviewed May 29, 2013

We stayed at the Shotover in October last year and really enjoyed the stay. We were really happy with the value for money - $50/night got us a very comfortable large room with a king size bed, ensuite bathroom, kitchenette, tv and sofa, and a balcony - what more could you ask for for that price! Great heating too. Bonus... More

Hi Jess, thanks for still thinking about us and giving us a great review. We have just had a huge dumping of snow, so all you Aussies have started booking for what looks to be a great ski season! As you pointed out good to have a car while you are staying with us. We also have a taxi deal... More

It's situated just outside of the town centre, love the quietness and town centre is only ten mins drive away, 3 mins away from the Shotover Jet.No problem with our two nights stay. Definitely will go back next time. I love Queenstown!!!!!!

Hi, thank you for your review. Great to see you enjoyed your stay and appreciated a quiet nights sleep. We agree that our location is a bonus, being just out of town enables you to enjoy the alpine scenery and just a short drive into town for all the excitement. Look forward to you staying again.

as a group we used the Shotover Lodge as a base while we cycled the new trails around Queestown. The facilities were ideal, rooms very comfortable, the kitchen was amazing as we cooked for our group both nights, plenty of room for everyone to help get the meals ready. A couple of larger pots would be good to add when... More

Thanks very much for the great review, I have just been shopping and brought some over sized pots and pans ready for the next time you come and stay with us.

Stayed as a group cycling around the bike trails around Queentown. The facilities at the Shotover Lodge were ideal for our group with a comfortable lounge and great kitchen facilities. The bedrooms and everything else created a most enjoyable stay

We were a group of 11 staying at Shotover Lodge during last Easter holiday. It was not easy to find a place to accommodate such big family group. Everyone loves the lodge sets down at location that only 10-15 minutes drive from downtown Queenstown and 3 minutes drive from Shotover River, the Shotover Jet departing area. Not just that, what...

We did wonder if we'd regret staying outside of town but it worked out well for us. What we saved on car parking and room rate was more money to spend on food, wine and adventures. Having free wifi was really great too and one night we stayed in and cooked a meal in the fully equipped guest kitchen. Definitely... More
