Second time here, and recommended by workmates in Australia, 2 bedroom Lakeview suite is the go. They are the ones at the front of the building nearest the lake. We have been on the 3rd floor both stays, first time by luck second by request. The views of snowcapped mountains and lake make it worth the cost to us, which... More

My husband and I stayed here with my brother and sis-in-law who were visiting from the US. Thought we'd do Queenstown the right way! I had neglected to request a higher apartment when I booked - make sure you do this! When we checked in for our 3 night stay, the hotel had originally put us in a 1st-floor apartment... More

My friend and i met for her birthday to enjoy a weekend in gorgeous Queenstown. she is from Christchurch, myself from Auckland. We wanted a place where we could relax in our robes and watch movies if we wanted to rather than go out each day. Peppers allowed us to do just this! We enjoyed the modern but cozy facitlities....

Location is well located at Queenstown. Only about 5 mins walk to the central place. Queenstown is well-known that you cant find a lot of free car park slot. So we are glad that we found this hotel and is about 5 mins walk to the central witout any driving. We caught a good deal in the website. Buy 2N... More

Stayed here in one of the self catering appartments overlooking the lake. It is absolutely fantastic with great facilities and views. It is also a great base to explore the south island. While I was there I completed the fly by wire (hairy!) The food in Queenstown is Ok but don't expect fine dining but the views of the Remarkables... More

Oh I dont know where to start! Of course Queenstown is anyway the cherry on top of NZ! But Pepper's Beacon gave us the taste of QT right from the moment we woke up in the morning to have tea, to the last moment before we slept chitchatting with friends and having a drink in the balcony. We rented a... More

We stayed at this Hotel when it was first opened and owned by the Peppers Group. On this trip to Queeenstown we thought we would stay there again. We were surprised to note that the cleanliness of the rooms was not up to the standard previously set. The location is superb and the rooms large but not clean. Also the... More

We stayed four nights on a whistle-stop world tour. We had a lakefront suite high in the new building set back from the road. The suite was superb, a huge lounge with full, well fitted kitchen, a huge log-effect gas fire, comfortable furniture throughout and full length windows to make the most of the view. The separate bedroom was very... More
