Self contained in Queenstown Tasmania
A comfortable 2 night stay to explore Queenstown, Tasmania. About 750m from the main town centre our room had a small kitchenette which was well appointed for our needs. Room is a good size, a bit tired in places and the shower squeals whenever it is being run (in our room anyway)but it didn't affect the operation and water was hot. Checkin was done via lockbox codes and the housekeeping staff were friendly and happy. Pleasant and comfortable

Friendly Queenstown
Easy checkin and a warm welcome. The room was clean and had a small kitchen. There was an on site restaurant that you could order a takeaway meal from. There was also a laundry which was great.
The motel was close to the town centre.

couple short stay
This hotel was on the edge of town. When we arrived we felt that we had driven to a "western type hotel" that looked like it had been around for a long time. When we entered our room however it was fabulous. Huge room with kitchenette, comfy sofa to sit on as well as everything else needed to make one comfortable. On site was a very very chic restaurant with extremely good food at extremely reasonable prices. We stayed here 2 nights and were very very happy with the place.

Nice stop in Queenstown although for October it was quite cool. We did also visit the railway and this was a great tribute to the people of this area.

I thought the motel was way out of town but it was two minutes away. The room was quite large with an excellent bathroom. The shower was a little touchy between hot and cold and needs to be looked at.
The restaurant provides tasty meals at reasonable prices also.

Great place to stay.
The Inn was a little old but it was kept up was was so nice. I would highly recommend it. My husband left his I-Pad. They called and told us they had it before we had discovered it was missing. That is a 10+ rating!!!!
