This is a place right in the town centre : 2 minutes walk from supermarket, food and souvenir shops, 5-6 minutes walk to reach the waterfront and about 10 minutes walk to the Queenstown Skyline cable car. We stayed in unit no.5 which has two bedrooms with 3 single beds in 1 room and a double bed in the other.... More

Stayed there just one night, but would definitely go back for a longer stay. Very close to center of town. We were upgraded for some reason from a one-bedroom to a two bedroom suite - really was a huge apartment with fully equipped kitchen and a balcony over looking the mountains and the town. Incredible deal.

location is very good.it's close to all the attractions. however very basic rooms..and the cleanliness was an issue bcos we had to repeatedly request the staff to lean our rooms .but for the price it's still a good value proposition.

Returning after 2 years we found Amber Lodge as friendly and helpful as ever. Any info needed is given freely with a smile and alternatives offered if requested. Room was clean tidy had a great view in easy walking distance to the town centre yet quiet to get a good nights sleep. Cannot fault it.

Our room is close to the road. It is noisy in the early morning. The facilities are too old. The heater cannot works properly and the washing machine is also out of date. The good thing is several minutes to the town center.

By no means new or fancy! But friendly management, well-maintained rooms, and only a block from downtown. With affordable tariff. On the recommendation of daffodil friends, on arriving Queenstown we checked into the Amber Lodge and were never dissatisfied. In the morning I awoke early and walked downtown - finally finding a cafe open at 7:30am for breakfast. Of course,... More

When I booked this hotel I had read all the reviews and thought how bad could it be? It wasn't bad at all, the rooms had every thing you needed, a supermarket just down the road . The units are a little dated but apart from that I have nothing to complain about. The owners were lovely people who chatted... More

We knew we were going 'average' when we booked Amber Lodge but it's what I expected. We had a pleasant enough stay, the owners are lovely and we had a good laugh together! You can walk everywhere easily and don't need to use the car at all. I appreciated the noisy neighbours being told to keep it down at 10pm... More
