Expert reviews:

Fodor's

"On Fernhill, just a few minutes from the town center, the Heritage is quieter than other local hotels and has great views of the Remarkables and Lake Wakatipu." Full review

DK Eyewitness

"Award-winning, sophisticated European-style resort hotel... situated above Lake Wakatipu with views of the Remarkables."

Star Service

"Perched above Lake Wakatipu, partly surrounded by beech and pine forest, this subdued resort is a favorite with upper-middle-grade groups and individuals who want regional flavor close to the action." Full review

Frommer's

"Accomplishes the neat trick of feeling intimate, despite the fact that it's a huge hotel. A lot of that has to do with the friendliness of the staff." Full review

Oyster

Upscale

"The Heritage Queenstown Hotel is an upscale property in a rural setting with postcard views of Lake Wakatipu and Ben Lomond mountains, which are popular for skiing." Full review
