Nice quiet hotel with good breakfast. Downtown is just a 10 minute walk. Breakfast starts at 6 AM which is helpful as lot of tours start very early. Its a bit pricey (Queenstown premium) but breakfast and proximity to downtown make up for it. Rooms were quiet and comfortable. The toileteries were nice.
