Ramada by Wyndham Queenstown Central
Outstanding lakefront view with a super comfortable bed and pillows. Was about an 8 minute walk to downtown/waterfront but it made for a quiet and peaceful stay. Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Cannot recommend this place enough! Good spot for a pick up from most tours.
