“Old, hot room.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed only one night there and found it just enough. We actually regreted we chose that place instead of picking others available, closer to the town... anyway, the main problem was the stuffy and hot room with no air-conditioning system. The rest was pretty basic, except for the fact that they have a washing machine which can be useful if you're travelling for days and accumulated a pile of dirty clothes. But, you have to but soap at the front desk.

Room Tip: Ask for air-conditioned options.

“arrowtown a blast”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 December 2011

What a blast, close enough to the bright lights of Queenstown for a night out but a much nicer place to wake up in. Spacious apartments and the swimming pool was a definite plus after a big night. Walked into the local for dinner and had way too much to eat and drink.
Planning a return trip sometime.

Room Tip: All units have their own washing machines and access to the pool.

“Comfortable Family Accommodation in a Very Nice Town”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 February 2011
2
people found this review helpful

My husband and 9 year old child stayed here for 2 nights to use as our base for our activities in Queenstown which for us was a much quieter option than staying in Queenstown itself. The room which was on 2 levels was clean, roomy and well appointed with a good sized kitchen. Being only a short drive away from Queenstown Arrowtown is a very pretty and historical town which is well worth a visit and also has a good lolly shop.

“Great accommodation in Arrowtown”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 April 2010

person found this review helpful

We stayed here for 1 night after flying into Queenstown from the North Island. We were so glad we stayed in Arrowtown for the night. Our room was clean & warm, included a full kitchen & washing machine. Sky TV made the kids happy, & we were only a short walk into Buckingham St.

“Good location with good facilities and host”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 April 2010

person found this review helpful

Selected this motel to be out of the hustle/hype of Queenstown and was very happy with both the quality and price. It was a well set out 1 bedroom unit. Easy parking. There is quick access to the village of Arrowtown and the "bright lights" of Queenstown are only a 15/20 minute drive away. The management is friendly, helpful and efficient.
