Sleek hotel, some rooms with balconies and fireplaces. Well stocked, fairly priced mini bar. Excellent staff, everyone was professional, helpful and knowledgable, a rare find in these times! Wonderful breakfast onsite and we also enjoyed the 8 course chefs menu at the onsite restaurant, No5 Church Lane. It was a memorable meal, the best we had in NZ. Bartender Jacob definitely went above and beyond as a server, as well. We will most definitely return to The Spire and highly recommend!

Extremely convenient location, spacious room and very hospitable employees. Overall I loved this place and would stay again. What I think they could do to improve is replace carpeting with hardwood floor and rug under bed. Some areas of carpet looked stained and cleaned but not as inviting. That’s it… update that and you have a super classy comfortable accommodation.

Stayed for 4 nights in February. Two things that make a good hotel into a great hotel. The staff and the bed. Such wonderful folks who work there, kind, patient, and they genuinely wanted help. I had a few issues with moving the booking by a couple of days due to illness and they went above and beyond my expectations to help out. And the beds are a comfortable as any hotel I have ever stayed in. I’ve stayed all over the world and this is as good as it gets. Highly recommended.

Luxury hotel in the centre of Queenstown
Great hotel in the centre of Queenstown, great location, lovely room with a very comfy bed. I would suggest to bring ear plugs though especially on Friday and Saturdays - there is alot of noise from the bars nearby. I think they could work on their customer service but overall the hotel is worth the money

If you are a fan of fire places in your hotel room, heated towel racks, ultra comfortable plush beds, super strong water pressure in shower/tub, perfect location, and stupendously excellent service, then this is the hotel for you! They put the Ritz to shame; you will not regret staying here, it’s literally impossible.

Our stay here was impeccable. Right from the communication prior to arrival, to having our room ready earlier than the check in time. Staff are amazing, polite and willing to do anything for you. Rooms are extremely spacious, clean. The only thing that would have been an added bonus was if they had Skytv. Otherwise we couldn’t fault a thing and would definitely be back to stay again!

Excellent hotel and the staff were fantastic. The only downside was late at night on the weekends, with very loud music from the bar/club opposite, across the laneway. Also unfortunately there was no room service due to Covid and staff shortages, but the hotel provided an excellent alternative at The Grille around the corner.
