I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Naumi and I can’t say enough good things about my experience. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality that continued throughout my entire stay. The staff were outstanding—friendly, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile. Whether it was the front desk team, housekeeping, or the restaurant staff, everyone made me feel welcomed and cared for. The room was immaculate, beautifully designed, and extremely comfortable. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, and it truly felt like a home away from home. What really made the difference, though, was the people. The service felt personal and sincere, which is something you don’t always find, even in top-tier hotels.

Comfortable and convenient

We enjoyed a relaxing two night stay here. Our room was large and very comfortable. Nice amenities including snacks in the room, a breakfast bar (for an added fee), and full laundry facility. Friendly and helpful staff. The paid parking on the premises is highly recommended as street parking is not easy to find. The hotel location is extremely convenient- a short walk into the village.

This is a wonderful boutique hotel that is very walkable to downtown. We checked in after hours and the process was very easy. The rooms are nicely decorated! They provided complimentary snacks and have a lovely complimentary happy hour! They were also super accommodating— we were going to Milford Sound and staying over night on a boat, the hotel let us keep our bags there even though we checked out. Super friendly staff— highly recommend!

The hotel was wonderful. Located very close to the bus stop, cafes, restaurants and shops. It was very clean and spacious. The complimentary snacks and soft drinks as well as complimentary happy hour was a lovely addition. We arrived a little late and self-check in instructions were very easy. A complimentary bottle of wine in the room as we had missed happy hour was an unexpected surprise. Just wonderful.

Great 3 days! Only thing that could possibly have been better was the morning coffee. Great location and managers on site were very attentive. Happy hour was great as was the bottle of wine in the beginning to relieve the stress of our flight etc from Australia. Highly recommend, and already thinking about coming back and spending a week there. Queenstown was great!
