Lomond Lodge Motel is a short walk to many restaurants and shops. The staff can arrange excursions and day trips. The property is a 15-minute drive from Queenstown Airport. Coronet Peak is a 20-minute drive away and The Remarkables ski area is a 40-minute drive away.

The room was so luxurious, big comfy bed, soft padded carpet, warm ambient lighting, large tv with Netflix..! The lady at the front desk was so lovely and friendly, they gave us a free upgrade on our room as it was available to one with a lake view, which was so stunning. She was really helpful in accommodating us with parking, which we hadn’t booked beforehand, made everything simple and easy. Also loved that there was guest laundry 👍 Thank you!

The tour desk can help organise activities such as skydiving, bungee jumping and jet boating. Lakeview Colonial Motel has a bus stop right outside.

Loved our stay at this lovely motel - everything was perfect, especially the view!!! The sunrises and sunsets were the highlight of the stay! The staff - Jass and Abhi - were wonderful, hard-working and kind people. The place is spotless, and has everything you need. Also, a walking distance to the town, and the bus stop is right by the property - easy to arrange pick-ups for the tours and we also took a bus to Arrowtown, so easy! Highly recommended!!!

Bella Vista Motel is within walking distance to the Queenstown city centre, the Skyline Gondala and Lake Wakatipu. It offers rooms with beautiful mountain views. Guests enjoy unlimited free WiFi.

The property offers a range of studios and apartments for guests to choose from. All studios have kitchenettes, which include tea/coffee making facilities, a refrigerator, microwave, kettle and toaster. The apartments have a full kitchen (excluding a stove top). All rooms come with TV, hairdryer, fan and safety deposit box. All rooms are serviced daily, if requested.

We rented the 3bdrm apartment, which is a studio with queen bed, with a door connected to a 1bdrm (two twin beds) and a large living area with a king bed plus dining plus the kitchen. Kitchen is very well equipped, in fact with most items sparkling clean like brand new! There is no stove, but there is a electric cooker/pan that can be used for stir fry or any use. There is even a rice cooker. The property manager is excellent, contacted us and remind us clearly how to check in as we arrived late night. The location is superb! Gondola/Luge/Paragliding/iFly activities are just few blocks walking. Also short walk to a part of the downtown where you find shops and others... In fact, the paragliding lands right on the patch of lawn, in front of the apartment. (Btw we tried the tandem gliding. We are not the adventurous type. Though this tandem gliding is scary to imagine, it is actually pretty doable. You walked a few steps and it takes off at 30+km/hr, then just swerve in the air within seconds. At most speed, if the pilot swerve left/right, speed might increase to at most 60+km/hr but majority of the time it sails smoothly. In no time, like 10-12 minutes, you will land on the field. Basically you just land and stand without even walking. Thanks to Bella Vista manager encouraging us to just park the car after check out, and go try it :) Btw the guidebook about Queenstown, available in the room is very resourceful and most complete of all tourist info about Queenstown. I would recommend you read that Guidebook in the Bella Vista apartment room if you are first timer to the area like us. You will get a good overview to plan out your activities and stay in Queenstown.

Looking for a motel?

Both travelers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help make check-in quick and easy.

    Our room was great. It had a full kitchen, a great outlook down to the river and was close to plenty of restaurants, bars and shops. There was plenty of free parking on site. The best thing about this place though was how lovely and helpful the staff were. This was a great place to stay, is easy to get into Queenstown by car, bus or even by water taxi but doesn't have the crowds of Queenstown.

    Accommodation meets the expectation as per price. It values for price. In this price you getting heated room, bathroom and free breakfast in queenstown , what else we need. $100 for a nigh plus some bread, cereal, coffee ad toast plus wifi and free parking. If somebody needs comfy beds, side table and luxury, this is not for them, If you want better room facilities, book a hotel. It is motel

    Motel is close to the water and a short drive (and probably a manageable walk, if you're energetic) to the centre of Queenstown and to shopping. Great base for seeing Queenstown and surrounds. Good to have a little kitchen at our disposal and free parking outside the door. Shower was great and the room was comfortable.
