Queenstown Small Hotels - Reviews and Rates

It was afternoon by the time we got there and it is so pretty. It's quite like Whistler. Imelda and Aoibhin might be the only ones to appreciate that but yeah, it's a little ski resort town with a beautiful lake and huge snowy mountains called the Remarkables in the background. Amazing. We got to the campsite which was the most expensive one so ...

Queenstown is a nice little spot. I managed to stay in 3different hostels in my 5nights stay here.I don't know many different places Ive stayed at this stage,must be hitting triple digits soon.Anyways i had hoped to do a bit of skiing ,but just my luck the slopes wont open for another 2weeks. What can i do???? Well in the end i decided a good al...

After what is possibly the longest and most windy journey of our trip so far we arrive at Queenstown, adventure capital of the world and the birth place of the bungy jump.

Overall though, it was a beautiful drive - the really sick twists and turns were all in the beginni...

The Magic bus pulled up outside Decos at 8am heralding the end of my time in Queenstown. There is so much to do here, I really liked the buzz about town. Sadly, I only got one day's boarding in. I went up to Coronet Peak with Amjid on Thursday and was just about to get on the ski lift when they shut all the lifts. It was so windy. Apparently thi...

It started snowing last night and all I can say, is I'm glad I'm getting on a plan and heading north this afternoon. Sadly, my time has come to an end in New Zealand, I'll definitely be back for a visit again soon. I've fallen in love with the scenery, but not the weather. I have a long day ahead, as I fly from Queenstown to Auckland and then fi...
