Guest Reviews
- Genna (8/5): - The view. But the traffic is very noisy the rooms are not sound proof. There is a scratching or dripping noise outside our room.
- Cissy (10/5): 湖景名副其实的酒店 - 房间位置观有阳台的湖景，停车、小厨房、洗发用品ecostore，毛巾质量都很棒，前台小哥很可爱，帮忙把房间加热好，一家人很好的一次度假体验。门口会偶尔略有点吵，但性价比值得美景。 距离道路有点近。但不影响。
- Graeme (7/5): Pleasant room to stay in for a short stay. - Lovely room with a small balcony which we had a view from. Basic accessories provided. Is on the only road in & out of Queenstown therefore was very busy. And this made it quite difficult to get across when walking. Quite a walk to main part of Queenstown. Room was quite some for the $ that we paid.

- Jagjit (1/5): Worst stay ever, You won’t even get the same views as on photos, one windowside is completely mess, kettle is too dirty - Not a single thing i liked about, photos are too good but in real the place is a mess Too many stairs, dirty kitchen utensils, slippery shower floor, walls are too cold that the bedhead is freezing n then pilows are cold from bed head. Cold carpet

- Taryn (10/5): This place was amazing. The view was to die for. The property immaculate and comfortable. - The place has just finished renovations. It’s clean and beautiful. The view out of the windows will have you sitting relaxing and just taking in the magnificence of the place There wasn’t anything to dislike. As advised there are lots of stairs to get to some of the rooms however staff were on hand to help with any luggage movements.
- Ida (10/5): Super happy with our stay, will definitely be back! - We stayed here for the second time and we were super happy again with our stay! As we went on a day tour to Milford, the staff even allowed us to use the parking from early morning onwards, although we only checked in in the evening. We also only booked a 1 room apartment and got upgraded to a 2 bedroom flat! The views are amazing too, we will definitely be back :)
- Sara (10/5): Great , comfortable accomodation with a view to die for !!! - The room was very spacious, Well set up with everything you need. We woke up to the million dollar view every morning . The value for money was fantastic , and we were only six minutes drive into the main town.

- Nelu (10/5): - Our stay at Lakeview Colonial Motel was truly perfect! The location couldn’t have been better, providing easy access to all the sights we wanted to see. Our host was incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Additionally, the place was sparkling clean, a testament to the care and attention to detail that has been put into maintaining it. We had a miraculous experience overall and would highly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay!
- Amanda (10/5): Incredible room with incredible views - Amazing views and location! Waking up to the amazing sunrise over the Remarkable mountains is something I’ll remember forever! The room has everything you need including a mini kitchen with an electric stove and a tv with streaming services. There were a lot of stairs! Fine for me as I’m fit but felt bad for an elderly man I saw struggling to get down the stairs. It made getting luggage up and down a challenge but the staff and manager weee so lovely and helped me with all my baggage!! The views were worth the stairs so if you’re ok with lots of stairs I highly recommend this place
- Miranda (9/5): - Beautiful views, cozy, comfy bed, close to town. Very helpful staff
- Stephanie (10/5): Cosy, warm and beautiful hotel. - Cosy and beautiful views. The manager was absolutely lovely and had exceptional customer service. Offering to help with our luggage and checking that all was ok in our room. It was our favourite place to stay on our trip. Nothing it was a lovely place.
- Madeline (10/5): Beautiful stay in Queenstown - Late checkin info was really well communicated and made it so easy for us. Everything was so clean and cosy with an amazing view and easy parking. Staff were lovely and accommodating.
- Iskanthabalan N (10/5): We will be looking forward to staying in the same Motel, possibility the same room on our next trip - The Motel manager was very helpful and excellent. The Motel had a grand entrance and ample parking area. The Manager was very helpful to carry our luggage to our room which was 1 level up although our arrival was at 10 pm. Most beautiful part of our room was it had the most beautiful view of both the Lake, Kelvin Peninsula and "Remarkable" mountains. We could just stay in our room and just watch the scenery the whole day. It was our 40th anniversary and the Manager helped to highlight this info on the Motel billboard (for 1 day). That was really sweet and lovely memories. Our room fridge was not functioning, but once the complaint was done, we had the fridge changed to a new one, the following day.
- Melisande (7/5): Fabulous staff and a comfortable modern decor - Amazing view Neighbouring rooms were quite noisy
- Sophie (5/5): -
- Helen (8/5): - Very clean and beautiful view
- QINGYU (7/5): it ok,but tired when come too later there ,not a good sleep. - good view failed to get a double bed room
- Kylie (10/5): We had a very nice time thankyou. - The manager was excellent and very helpful. Excellent views. Great location.
- Minerva (8/5): -
- Che Ming (4/5): -
- Craig (9/5): -
- Karen (9/5): Great spot! - Wonderful view of the lake, Kelvin Heights and mountains. Bed very comfy. Lovely decor and relaxing unit. Person at rececption very thorough and only wanted to help. Had trouble getting the tv to go, was late so didn't matter in the end.
- Barbara (9/5): Great views, clean room and helpful staff! - Great view of the lake and the mountains. The guy at reception helped us carry the suitcases up the stairs! Really appreciated that. Satellite tv didn’t work but we just streamed with you tube so not a big issue.
- J.A. (9/5): - Views were fantastic Steps up to room
- Rachel (7/5): -
- Craig (10/5): Enjoyed the stay, walking distance to Queenstown CBD, would definitely stay there again. - Accomodation was roomy, modern and clean.
- Melanie (9/5): Beautiful rooms, short walk to Queenstown centre - Location was great. Check in was simple. The views were spectacular! Nil
- Flavia (8/5): -
- Brenda (8/5): Couldn't fault Lakeview, however will never use Booking.com again!! - Great location. Close to CBD and shops etc. A male staff member helped carry our suit cases up to the top level. The staff were extremely helpful with the little things like more teabags, sugar and milk. Lakeview were ok with us changing our departure date but Booking.com were impossible to deal with! We were at the top level which meant a lot of stairs to climb. When we made the booking we were assured we'd only have one level, ended up being up three 3 levels, though assistance was given to carry one of our suit cases up the stairs. Dealing with Booking.com is impossible, still waiting for a reply from my request two days before our Lakeview Colonial arrival to alter our departure date. This is the only way they may finally take notice!
- Anita (9/5): - The location was great . Easy walk into town and brilliant lake views N/a
- Mei (10/5): Excellent - The property is located close to town with bus stop right outside. We can walk or take 3 buses easily. The view from the window is absolutely amazing. It would be very nice if they could add a self laundry facility.
- Carol (10/5): Excellent stay in a lovely motel - Location, views, great room and excellent facilities. Very helpful and friendly staff. Good value for money Nothing
- Max (9/5): - Staff very nice, nice location to walk into town and fantastic views. Also very helpful parking for those on road trips. Generally very clean with easy check in and very accommodating staff. There is some road noise as it is on the main road into town, if you are a light sleeper this may be a problem.
- Lisa (7/5): Great views but cleanliness was bit poor and needs improvement - The view was exceptional at this place. I liked the homely atmosphere that it provided and was not far from town. The property has many stairs which may not be convenient for people with large suitcases. Also the quilt was dirty and did not have a cover just two sheets. Also the bath mat in the bathroom was dirty and the heater fan was caked in dust which smelt like fire when started
- Tifilelei (9/5): - Nice views, very comfy and clean, staff were great
- Emma (9/5): -
- Richard (10/5): Great views and price in Queenstown - Great location and good value for money in Queenstown. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Lots of stairs to carry bags up. But worth it for the views.
- Carolyn (9/5): - The room had everything we needed. friendly staff who were very eager to please, very well equipped room, which was nice and clean, absolutely stunning view, and we could easily walk into the center of town. I thought it was good value for money. Nothing.
- Darryl (10/5): -
- Sara (8/5): Great place to stay! Enjoy 😊 - Very cosy and comfortable, lovely balcony with a great view Nothing to complain about
- Zoe (10/5): Loved our stay. Such a great location with a beautiful view. - Great location with easy access from the main road. Parking at the front and beautiful lake views from our bed. Very clean and the staff were great. The heater in the bathroom was such a great touch and made our stay even more comfortable.
- Murray and Denise (9/5): Clean and well managed with great views. - Great view over the lake and mountains. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The room itself was clean, cosy and had everything that we needed.
- Stig-Håkan (9/5): -
- Ross (7/5): Close to town with s great view over the lake. - the room was clean and the view was spectacular. Staff were helpful with the bags
- Rebecca (10/5): Really lovely building with great views over the lake - The staff were really friendly and helpful. The view is amazing and it's just a short walk to town. Nothing.
- Sara Goly (8/5): Comfortable room, good location - The view was fantastic and the location was in proximity of the town. Parking was free qhich was an advantage. The carpet flooring can be washed, especially since it is a darker color and the rooms get quite damp, making it feel very musty.
- Craig (10/5): Ideal room, great view and friendly welcome - Great view, friendly staff, very helpful
- Nigel (9/5): Easy walk into town to experience Queenstown food and drinks - The view from the bed! It was all good
- Manisha (7/5): - Room size was very small, location was also far from city centre
- Pam (4/5): Staff was obliging, however nothing makes up for the noisy location. Don’t stay here if you value your sleep! - View was the only thing going for this property however if you want to sleep, forget this place! It is on a busy, noisy road so you won’t get any sleep. You also need to be a mountain goat to lug your bags up stairs! the rooms are very small with no room for suitcases.
