Doubletree was a last minute decision upon arriving Queenstown from Mt Cook. Although it is pricey, no regrets getting a room here for 2 nights. It came with a fully furnished kitchenette where you could do some cooking but didn't utilize this since we ate out. One peeve I don't understand is the need to pay for parking since onsite (NZD$ 16 per nite). There's ample parking and for guests that drive in, this should be complimentary for stay duration.
Location is outside of Queenstown but water taxi available from hotel dock. Recommend for the environment and fantastic room but giving 3 stars for facilities due to need to pay for parking.
Location by the lake allows peace and quiet and also wildlife encounters. Front desk staff during checkin time was very attentive and helpful as well.

Beautiful hotel. Loved the free cookies threat. Walking distance to historic bridge, facing the Remarkables mountains range. Comes with full kitchen amenities.

The room was so comfortable, everything was so pretty. The view was nice even though it was a little blocked at the bottom. The breakfast buffet was nice as well. The housekeeping attendants did a good job making up my room throughout my stay and the front desk agents were very helpful and friendly.

The facility seems pretty new. Spacious room with modern units and decor. They gave us free welcome cookies which was a nice touch. However, the free parking spots are limited and fcfs, or else there’s an option for paid parking (not run by the hotel but located right under — as I was told) or park quite far out.

Nice functional room but odd cleaning service schedule. Left the room at 10am and returned at 4pm to find room has not been cleaned and towels not replaced. When asked at reception, was advised that room cleaning service is between 4-5pm, which was very odd considering many hotels do it in the late morning/early afternoon when guests are usually not in the room.

Ideal location if you want to avoid town area. It’s near Deer Park. For parking, depends on your luck to get parallel parking which is free but limited space. There is plenty of space in paid parking.
The bed and room is very comfortable. Small kitchen/pantry is fully equipped with all you need. I would love to stay longer.
Don’t miss hotel cookies (complimentary gift), very delicious.

Can’t turn on the air conditioner. Booked for lake view but ended with a solar panel view with a bit lake.

Uncomfortable rooms, no privacy, transparent Bathroom door, and door can not close completely, so everyone can see everything from living room, from bathroom on toilet or in shower you can see in living room and on the bed. Terrible room, and all are similar, location far, and expensive, $360 per night.

We had a beautiful stay! Lake view of queenstown and the mountains. There is a taxi boat across from the hotel which takes you over to queenstown. The hotel has everything you need and more

During my stay, I had several alarming and unacceptable experiences:
1. **Theft and Security Concerns:** On two consecutive days, I discovered my personal belongings were missing from my room. Each time, similar items disappeared. When I raised this issue with your staff, their response was inadequate. Offering free drinks does not address the severity of the situation. I expected a more serious and positive resolution, reassuring me that your hotel values the security of its guests.
2. **Poor Housekeeping Standards:** I encountered numerous issues with the cleanliness of my room. My feet and face were bitten by unknown insects, implying the presence of bedbugs or similar pests. Additionally, the housekeeping staff did not change the bed sheets after cleaning; they merely tidied the bed. The towels were stained and unhygienic. This level of cleanliness is unacceptable and far below the standards I expect from a hotel of your reputed brand.
3. **Hot Water Supply Issues:** Throughout my six-day stay, there were four days when the hot water supply was inconsistent or entirely unavailable. This was particularly distressing given the cold weather. On most days, hot water was only available late at night around 1 AM. Such inconsistency is inexcusable and severely impacted my comfort and overall experience.
