Haka House Queenstown Lakefront
3.0 star property
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (13)
"Overall good place but issues were as follows: - lockers in room were unusable as the beds backed onto the lockers so you couldn’t actually open the locker doors. This led to major storage issues in the 8 bed dorm and a rather cluttered room. - quite a walk into town compared with other places (I hurt my ankle on a trek though so may have felt longer than it actually was)"

"Quirky accommodation (converted caravan) which wasn't what I was expecting. Friendly, helpful staff. Distance from bathroom facilities a bit of an issue during the night. Very noisy with loading/unloading from the wharf - especially on a still night. But for $80 a night one has to be pragmatic."

7.6 out of 10, Good, (228)
"This place was adequate for our two-night stay. Strong backpacker vibe, with free breakfast (waffles, cereal, toast) and evening soup. Helpful staff. The location was great. The room itself was dated and pretty small. I'd say this is a case of you get what you pay for. It was very affordable and great if you're looking to connect with other travelers, but I think I would personally spring for a place a bit more modern with more amenities next time. "

La Quinta by Wyndham Remarkables Park Queenstown

9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (707)
"La Quinta had on my request given us an accessible room on the first floor. They have an elevator just for hotel guests and residents, which operates on your door card. Hence you know it is safe, no one who doesn’t belong there can come up. The room was very spacious so I could drive around on my wheelchair without damaging anything. The bed comfortable and a nice king size. The bathroom again accessible with rails and a seat for showering. The reception was friendly and helpful, when asked to...
