Nice Hotel by mainstream NZ hotel standards. Nice features in all the rooms, with some nice touches like the underfloor heating, tv in the bathroom, coffee machine etc... Stayed at the hotel on several occasions. Its a great example of NZ design. Great location. If your the type to stare out your window for hours then the St Moritz or... more

The room was very spacious and nicely furnished. It had all kinds of bells and whistles from mood lighting, espresso maker, huge king bed, flat screen TV mounted on the wall of... more

We stayed here six nights on our honeymoon in early April 2008. The hotel was wonderful and exceeded our expectations. The rooms were immaculate. The bed was super cozy, especially after 36 hours of traveling to Queenstown from Florida. The bathroom was great and the jet tub was large with a color TV (one problem we had was that the... more

It is also a five-ten minute walk to the waterfront at Queenstown Bay and also the gondola base and nearby hiking trails. We were able to walk out of the... more

was a lovely room but we stayed at another hotel first, as $1100 a night is not in our price range each night. the other hotel(st Mortiz) has better view if you get a lake view. getting back to the sofitel, our tv in the bathroom was upside down, yes you read correct, upside down, we asked to get it... more

This has been an amazing stay ! I just can recommend this hotel in any way. more
