Stayed here for 3 nights, room not serviced during that time. An older motel but room was a good size. Convenient location to railway and Main Street.
We arrived late, but the management made it easy for us. This place is not fancy but it was perfect for us. We wanted a place that was clean, comfortable, and cost-effective for our one night stay in Queenstown.
Would absolutely stay again.
We were given an upgrade to a room that was more suited to our family (3 young kids)
Every staff member was extremely friendly and kind.
Staying here again after many visits. Love the spacious room which is clean and reasonably comfortable, Staff are all helpful too! Liked the fact they still offer basic cutlery and items to support making a sandwich in your room too:)

Room need to be upgraded, worn out! Quite basic.but staff are friendly
We loved our stay The Waterfront Wynyard! Lovely location, very comfy bed in immaculate room. A bit of humour in signage and in restaurant, where there are some quirky things to look at as well as some beautiful wooden boxes for sale, and breakfast was fantastic. Really a fun and pleasant place in a cute town.
