Hotel needs major renovations. There was no bathroom only to share down the hall. Walls in the rooms need paint or at least nice clean. Wouldn't trust the linen. We have not stay this 2 nights but went to Strahan and paid again for 2 nights. Staff in hotel not helping but advising to get the problem fixed by lastminute. This accommodation is not suitable for travellers, needs to be clasified as hostel, in my opinion. Queenstown itself is not ready for visitors, no attractions all together. It was our first time there and for sure the last one.

Good stopover, centrally located in town.

Beautiful old building. Room served its purpose for an over night stay with a shared bathroom..The hotel was centrally located in the town. We ate a lovely meal in in the restaurant in the evening and it was reasonably priced. Staff were very attentive. We had a continental breakfast in with the price.

The room was nice and compact. Beautiful historic hotel. The only fault was their laundry facilities. I wasted over $10 as the dryer would only go on for 5 minutes at a time.

The room had an internal window and was rather small. Two single beds were what we asked for. The room wes very dated, but the hotel Is very old and alot of the original features are still there. They had put a new bathroom in. We ate in the dining room and had a very tasty meal.
