"The restaurant servers were EXCELLENT! Jamie was great. Gabriela is the person that made our stay memorable. What an asset to the brand! Personable and warm, made a connection with every guest, yet very professional. A hard combination to find in a manager. She is ehat Rosewood wants to project to its guests sll rolled up in one. The overall service was superb and what is expected at Rosewood. It is very isolated and not close to anywhere except by a 15 min taxi ride, so do take that into...

Outdoor pool, open 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM, pool umbrellas, pool loungers

"Everything was amazing, the views, the service, the room, the general set up and pool area was nice too. We really our stay. Maybe there was a damp musty smell as you opened the door but that went away immediately once inside. Hard to know if it was carpet around the door entrance but no bother once inside room. The resort went the extra mile to help me see clients in a meeting room which i appreciated and all the management and staff were helpful and friendly. "

Indoor pool, outdoor pool, open 6:00 AM to 11:00 PM, pool umbrellas

"Had a lovely 3 night stay here. Ate at the restaurant twice and it was delicious. Staff were lovely. Room was spacious. Only downfall was the hill to get to the accommodation. We felt like we needed to drive down to the main area of Queenstown, and parking in Queenstown is not great and all paid. Parking at the hotel is a first come first served basis and basically luck of the draw. This could be better managed."

Luxury Townhome, 3 Bedrooms, Lakeside | Private kitchen

"This is a beautiful place on a beautiful street. The house feels like home. Our only problem was that the air conditioning doesn’t cool the upstairs bedrooms. We don’t mind sleeping with the windows opened except the street is very busy and loud, even at night until 11:00pm."

2 Bedroom Premier Lakeview | Balcony view

"Perfect location. The second bedroom was very dark with almost no window to open. Parking is very tricky if you have a big car. We had a Toyota highland and couldn’t park it, because there was a bigger car parked next to ours. Luckily they had extra spots available for the 3 nights we were there. "

Laptop workspace, blackout curtains, soundproofing, iron/ironing board

"Hotel is older and facilities are a bit dated, but good-sized room (with a nice balcony overlooking the lake) and clean. Very pricy, but that should be expected for Queenstown during the Christmas season. Excellent location across the street from the lake and short walk to central Queenstown. "

"Beautiful accommodation conveniently located right where you need to be for all things Queenstown has to offer. If you travel here during summer be aware the hotel was built a while back when they prioritized heating over a/c so their is no a/c. The room we stayed in on the 2nd floor sat at 24.4°C for the most part. They do provide effective fans to help cool things. The staff is wonderful and just a short walk to restaurants, shopping, and attractions."
