If you are a fan of fire places in your hotel room, heated towel racks, ultra comfortable plush beds, super strong water pressure in shower/tub, perfect location, and stupendously excellent service, then this is the hotel for you! They put the Ritz to shame; you will not regret staying here, it’s literally impossible.

Luxury hotel in the centre of Queenstown

Great hotel in the centre of Queenstown, great location, lovely room with a very comfy bed. I would suggest to bring ear plugs though especially on Friday and Saturdays - there is alot of noise from the bars nearby. I think they could work on their customer service but overall the hotel is worth the money

I travel a bit domestically with work staying at quality hotels, i must say The Spire hotel beats them all. I literally can't fault the hotel and its staff. The open fire place, the size of the room, large shower with a separate bathtub, even the bed, wow, the best nights sleep ever on the softest mattress I have ever experienced at a hotel. Without a doubt I will be coming back and staying at The Spire Hotel.

Rooms were fantastic and great ambience, staff were superb in sorting us out with a quieter room the main issue was the quality of the bed which was average at best not a 5 star bed.
