 Holiday Inn Express & Suites Queenstown 

Mountain energy, lakeside simplicity

Crisp mountain air, a hint of adventure in the atmosphere, and interiors that combine modern comfort with a touch of alpine style.

Yes, it’s a Holiday Inn, but not as you know it. This peach of a property has a cosy outdoor firepit area and a mountain-facing restaurant, so you get all the feel-good factor of Queenstown without forking out for an unnecessarily flashy room. That said, the rooms are solid and modern, with everything you need for a restorative night’s sleep after all the shenanigans of Queenstown. It doesn’t disappoint on location, either. It’s close enough to wander everywhere, yet far enough from the late-night buzz to feel calm when you return.

Why we love Holiday Inn Express & Suites Queenstown

  • It nails that Queenstown sweet spot: central location, mountain views, and an easy walk to everything without the crowds sitting right on your doorstep.

  • The atmosphere is friendly and unfussy, with a buzz about it as people come and go from their epic adventures.

  • It is a great base for whatever the town has in store for you, whether that’s skiing, biking, hiking, or simply committing fully to seeing all the best views from a gondola or lakeside restaurant.

  • Thoughtful everyday conveniences — from an excellent grab-and-go breakfast to laundry facilities and secure gear storage — make travel smoother and much less stressful.
