Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Holiday Inn Queenstown Frankton Road often earns praise for its location with views of Lake Wakatipu, conveniently situated between Frankton and Queenstown, with a bus stop right outside. The on-site Grazie restaurant is a highlight for many, particularly the lamb dishes. While most find the rooms spacious and clean, some guests have noted the need to take an Uber to reach the center of Queenstown, costing between $16 and $35.
