My stay at The Spire Hotel was lovely, with an excellent location near shops and the lake. The staff were friendly and attentive, making me feel welcomed throughout my five nights. However, I would have loved more gluten-free breakfast options, and some noise at night could be intrusive if your room faces the club. Overall, it was a rewarding experience that I'd recommend to anyone visiting Queenstown.

I had an amazing stay at The Spire Hotel! The room was spacious and beautifully designed, complete with a cozy fireplace and a good balcony that offered views of the lake and mountains. The location was perfect, right in the heart of Queenstown, though the noise from nearby bars could be a bit much at times. Overall, the service was great, but parking arrangements were a slight hassle since it's tucked away in an alley.
