My stay at the hotel started off wonderfully with stunning views and a beautifully decorated room. While the check-in and dining options were generally good, my experience soured during check-out due to billing issues. The location was nice for a peaceful walk, but there were definitely areas for improvement in the overall service and dining organization.

Our family's stay was a mix of good and bad. The hotel has a lovely setting by the lake and provides some great amenities, but we felt somewhat disconnected from the main attractions due to its location. Service was lacking, particularly in terms of cleanliness and responsiveness, which was disappointing given the price we paid. The restaurant experience was hit or miss, which was not ideal for a family getaway.

I had a lovely stay at Hilton Queenstown with beautiful views and great facilities, but the service had significant gaps that impacted my experience. While the room was comfortable and well-equipped, the dining service was disappointing, and I faced several minor inconveniences during my stay that could easily be improved.

The hotel offers stunning views of the lake and a fantastic pool area, contributing to a great stay overall. However, the layout of the complex is quite confusing, leading to challenges in finding rooms. Additionally, the dining options could use improvement as the breakfast did not offer much variety. The service was inconsistent, with a few staff members being exceptionally helpful, while others were less engaged.
