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

"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
The Telegraph7.0
"The Heritage Queenstown overlooks Lake Wakatipu and the aptly-named Remarkables mountain range, located on a hill just a 10-minute walk from the centre of town." Full review
Frommer's "The area the hotel is in is also blissfully quiet...as for the rooms, they're spacious, stylish and spotlessly clean. " Full review

Families and other large gropus should ask about the large villas across the road from the main hotel (but still part of the complex).
