We had a great stay at Balmoral Lodge. The lodge is in a beautiful location overlooking the lake. The property is a little dated but the rooms are comfortable and well-appointed.
Room was wonderful. Loved the daily muffins. It is a steep climb to the property from downtown. Good hike or take a cab back. Very comfy bed. Limited kitchen access but was able to use microwave w owner’s permission.
Every detail is attended too. Muffins and tea in my room in the morning and snacks and cocktails in living room in the evening. Views were amazing and landlady went above and beyond to be helpful to me. Loved this place. A little piece of serenity.
Pictures of the views for Thai place didn’t do this place justice. Our views from our windows were gorgeous! The Hostess was very nice and receptive to our needs. Although the house was on a busy street, we didn’t feel like the place was too noisy. Easy walking distance to downtown, bit of a climb coming back from CBD. Highly recommended for extended stays, just make sure you plan for breakfasts.
The place was perfect for my partner and I for 5 nights. The view was perfect and the place was clean and comfortable. We will be back if we ever return to Queenstown again.
The Balmoral Lodge was a great spot for our Queenstown stay. Although it was up the hill, it was quite convenient and provided a beautiful view of the lake. Our stay was wonderful and would highly recommend it to visitors. We also really appreciated on-site parking!
Lovely place with exceptional lake and mountain views. Views and rooms are as lovely as the promo photos . Cosy, comfortable, welcoming owner and very helpful staff. Friendly atmosphere.

Vid is an AWESOME host!! The lodge is clean, walkable, has great parking and very comfortable beds!
I was NOT able to stay here due to health problems and the vertical climb to lodge. The property assured me I would get a refund, because they were able to rent unit that very same day. At this time i have NOT received the credit. Expedia was NOT available to assist with this issue
It was a lovely view and comfy bed with clean bathroom etc, always different staying in a "home" - however we were very independent from everyone and enjoyed our alone time in a lovely room with plenty of room to relax.

Just amazing! Loved everything about it. Rafaela was absolutely wonderful.
My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at Balmoral Lodge. Sis made us feel right at home, and you couldn’t ask for a better view. It was an easy walk to the downtown area as long as you’re not afraid of hills, and there was plenty of parking if you’re driving and prefer to get around town that way. Would happily stay again and recommend to friends/family!
