Vlad: Probably the best hotel near Queenstown. Boutique, cozy, expensive. However if you are lucky and using booking com from mobile you can get up to 20% discount combined with your genius level. Nice view
Vlad: If you a heading to Christchurch or to Picton - this is probably the best place to eat some nice stake or pizza as all the rest on the way will be just donuts and snacks at petrol stations
