Kawarau Falls Hotels with Pools

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.

There are two rooms in one living room, one room with a double bed, and one room with twin beds. The kitchen basically has a dishwasher, washing machine and dryer, and the facilities are complete! The apartment is in the back row of the Hilton. Although it is not directly on the lake, you can still see the lake view. The sunset shines on the mountain opposite. Lake Wakatipu is so beautiful. Follow the main road and you will find Deer Park Heights, a popular spot on Xiaohongshu.com. It is highly recommended. There are beautiful scenery and small animals. You can go and play for a day with some food. The trouble is that there are only 3 parking spaces in the entire apartment. After staying for two days, there was no parking space. I had to drive back to the main road to park, which is a bit of a test of my driving skills.
