Top South Island Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park by IHG

Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"Good modern hotel with clean rooms and helpful staff. Thought I had booked 2 doubles not twins but we made it work for the two of us. While farther from downtown Queenstown than we had originally thought it was still convenient. Daily parking was reasonable and there are a few services and restaurants around the hotel area. There is public I transit to and from Queenstown it wasn’t thoroughly reliable. I’d stay here again."
