I had a wonderful stay at this motel. The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The staff were welcoming, friendly, and always happy to help. A special thank you to the Bhuvan Sharma for the outstanding hospitality and professionalism. They made sure everything was perfect and made us feel genuinely welcome throughout our stay. The location was convenient, and the overall experience exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this motel to anyone visiting Queenstown and would happily stay here again. Thank you to the entire team for such a great experience!

I truly don’t have enough words to express how grateful I am for the incredible experience I had at Lakeview Motel. From the moment I arrived until the day I checked out, everything was absolutely perfect. The manager was simply outstanding—kind, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to making my stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. It’s rare to meet someone who cares so much about their guests. My room was spotless, beautifully maintained, and incredibly comfortable. And the view… without a doubt, the most breathtaking view I have ever had from a hotel room. Waking up every morning to the stunning scenery of Queenstown was an unforgettable experience. The location is perfect, making it easy to explore everything Queenstown has to offer, and every detail reflected the care and thoughtfulness of the entire team. I felt genuinely welcomed and well looked after throughout my stay. Lakeview Motel exceeded every expectation I had. It offers the perfect combination of exceptional hospitality, a fantastic location, comfortable accommodation, and the most spectacular views imaginable. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making my stay so special. I will always remember my time here and hope to return one day. I highly recommend Lakeview Motel to anyone visiting Queenstown—you won’t find a better place to stay.

Had the best stay at Lakeview Colonial Motel. Just out of town (less than a 5 min drive), uninterrupted views of the lake and surrounding mountains! Rooms were clean and newly renovated. Bhuvan was highly accommodating and helpful whenever we needed. Great place to stay if you're wanting a more quiet experience of Queenstown away from the busy town centre!

We enjoyed the gorgeous views around the hotel a lot. All the staff members are polite and attentive, who offered great assistance whenever we needed help. It’s great value for money. The room is well-equipped with soft beds, and everything is in good condition.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel! The staff here are incredibly patient and attentive. They took their time to listen carefully and helped us resolve every issue we encountered throughout our trip with great professionalism and kindness. The room was spotlessly clean from corner to corner, and the view outside was stunning and picturesque. The bed was extremely comfortable, giving us a deep, restful sleep every night. We visited during winter, and the heating worked perfectly with steady, ample warmth that kept the room cozy at all times. What made our stay even more convenient was the in-room fully equipped kitchen and refrigerator. It was super practical for preparing simple meals and storing snacks and drinks. Overall, it was an amazing experience, and we would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable, hassle-free accommodation.

Nothing can beat the scenery from this hotel, with the lake ahead of you and the surrounding mountains. It’s a pleasant, albeit uphill 15-min walk from the centre of town but there’s a bus stop conveniently located in front of the motel. Excellent service by Bhuvan and he made sure everything is taken care of. Reasonably priced accommodation. No-nonsense. Great service. Will book again.

Unsafe, disgusting and completely unacceptable for the price. This was for our wedding anniversary. This was the worst experiences I’ve ever had anywhere, and I’ve never written a bad hotel review. We paid $367 NZD per night, and the conditions were absolutely appalling.|There was broken asbestos outside the room, mould all over the doors and the whole place smelt strongly damp and mouldy. There were live electrical cables with water leaking directly into them, and even blood on the chair inside the room. Completely unsafe and unhygienic. I’ve stayed at many hostels when I was younger and they have not been as bad as this place. To make things worse, the motel gave our room to someone else, then placed us in a room on the lower level, right beside the main road, which reeked of mould, and the room was next to a cleaners room with a broken door with 2 mattresses infested with black mould. When we raised concerns, the manager said there were no other rooms available and that we needed to raise it with booking.com which we did. Only after Booking.com contacted him to try and arrange a refund did he suddenly offer a room “upstairs with a lake view.” The man behind reception (manager) was rude, dismissive, and lied repeatedly. The sign outside was flashing ‘Vacancy’, but as soon as Booking.com got involved, it was changed to ‘No Vacancy.’ The entire situation felt dishonest and unprofessional.|For the price we paid, this motel is an absolute health and safety hazard. The property is in terrible condition, and the customer service was appalling and somehow rated as a 3 star Motel. The place is apparently for sale - our taxi driver said this when he picked us up and said other customers had told him the state it was in. I hope whoever buys this dump gets a full property inspection first. Anyone staying near rooms 1, 2, or 3 (or on the lower levels) should be seriously concerned about asbestos exposure and respiratory risks. Please do not stay here — it is unsafe, unsanitary, and not worth your health or your money. I’ve attached photos so people can see the reality for themselves.
