I had a great stay at Melbourne Lodge. Staff were very friendly and polite and the property was kept clean. Shared bathrooms maintained very well and kitchen was well equipped. Parking was available onsite and free, but was busy and not always easy to find a space (although this could be typical in Queenstown!) 5 mins walk into the main town which was great!

The Melbourne Lodge has an amazing guest lounge with kitchen facilities like microwave, toaster oven, elec. frying pan, dishes, glasses, cutlery, pots, etc. It is a great place where you can prepare food and dining tables to eat at. We had a king size bed and a great room, nice bathroom & we loved it. We walked into the city near the wharf every day & organised activities from there. Also, it is very reasonably priced, the best we could find in Queenstown. Staff are very helpful & friendly.

Decent budget hotel. Emails to attendant went unanswered over several days. Phone call seemed to be only way to communicate. On top of a large hill so be prepared to walk inclines to get to it. But generally walkable to amenities. Nice little patio area outside room. Laundry available.

Good comfortable hotel in a very location of Queenstown. It has a range of rooms depending on your requirements. Friendly staff. There are no toasters or microwaves in our room but there is a guest lounge with toaster, chairs etc.
