A rural city in the heart of New Zealand's Otago region, Queenstown is a four season lake and alpine resort popular with tourists all year round. The overwhelming impression most visitors have upon checking into their Queenstown accommodation for the first time is how warm and friendly the whole city is. Located on the shores of serene Lake Wakatipu with snow capped mountains looming in the background, Queenstown offers endless possibilities of adventure throughout the year. The area was first settled in the 1800's by frontier farmers looking for fresh grazing land for their cattle, but was known to the native Maori for a long time prior as a source of Pounamu, a highly valued greenstone.
The winter season is perhaps the busiest time in Queenstown. Skiers and snowboarders from all over the world converge on this alpine resort to enjoy some of the best skiing available anywhere in the Southern Hemisphere. If you're in town during the winter, staying at a Queenstown lodge is your best bet since they're a quick drive away from Queenstown's top ski slopes. The staff at these lodges is always on hand to help arrange equipment rentals or locate ski slopes best suited to your style and experience level.
Many holidaymakers in Queenstown opt to stay in cheap Queenstown hotels to stretch their holiday Dollar even further. Wanaka, a small town about an hour's drive away from Queenstown offers some great accommodations at extremely affordable rates. A couple of nights in Wanaka during your Queenstown holiday will save you a bundle, leaving you with more cash left over go on extra adventures you would otherwise miss! Wanaka itself is not without its own attractions - you could spend a leisurely day taking the sights and sounds of Lake Wanaka, or hire a guide and go on an exhilarating excursion to Mount Aspiring National Park.
Wanaka is regarded as a backpacker's haven, and is a major stopping point for anyone backpacking their way across New Zealand. The town has many top notch accommodation options for backpackers, many of which can be found right on the shore of Lake Wanaka. Regardless of how many miles you travelled to get there, you will be sure to find a warm bed and welcoming smile at your Wanaka accommodation.
Renting an apartment for their Queenstown accommodation is another popular option for people visiting the resort town. Depending on how many people in your group and the duration of your stay, renting a Queenstown apartment can be significantly less expensive than staying in a hotel. Queenstown rental agents are on hand to help find the ideal Queenstown accommodation, regardless of your budget.
Many visitors who drive in to Queenstown are surprised at the huge number of motels and hostels operating around the city. Travellers on a budget can choose from a variety of affordable accommodation available here.
Known as the 'Adventure Capital of the World,' Queenstown dishes out the thrills like no other holiday destination. Among the many hair raising, adrenalin pumping adventures you will enjoy in Queenstown are jet boating, bungee jumping, off-road 4x4 trips, white water rafting, parasailing, paragliding and mountain biking, to name a few. Unlike most other highly commercialized tourist traps around the world, you will always experience genuine Kiwi hospitality during your stay in Queenstown.
Queenstown has it all, from five star swanky resorts or cheap and cheerful backpacker's hostels. Regardless of your budget or length of stay you are sure to find the perfect Queenstown accommodation.
