Great location, easy to get down to the main part of town. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was nice and clean and quiet. Free laundry service inside the hotel. Happy hour drinks and snacks plus breakfast if you wanted to eat there.

The only downside with the room was the fan in the bathroom was very loud and wasn’t separate to the light switch (so once you switched the light on the fan went on as well).

This is SUCH a cool hotel. I would happily stay there again. The rooms are large. The staff is super nice - one person even stood in a parking spot for my husband across the street (there's free parking on the street) so that we didn't have to pay for parking. We did also receive a bottle of wine on checking in. I believe this was an Expedia benefit, but it was a lovely detail all the same. I cannot stress enough how cool these rooms are - every detail down to the cups is thought through and fits the unique style of the hotel. We will be back!

Lovely hotel, very peaceful. Love the decor and staff were lovely. You really get a luxurious experience with a sauna, candy bar, complimentary sodas and breakfast. Only small downside was the extremely limited parking. I was lucky to get a park within a 5 min walk away but I could imagine that may be difficult during busy periods.

Really poor customer service, my friend went into hospital unable to make the trip. No refund was requested from us just a remedy so we could use at a later date even at partial value. No solution possible. Super disappointing

I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Naumi and I can’t say enough good things about my experience. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality that continued throughout my entire stay. The staff were outstanding—friendly, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile. Whether it was the front desk team, housekeeping, or the restaurant staff, everyone made me feel welcomed and cared for. The room was immaculate, beautifully designed, and extremely comfortable. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, and it truly felt like a home away from home. What really made the difference, though, was the people. The service felt personal and sincere, which is something you don’t always find, even in top-tier hotels.

The hotel was wonderful. Located very close to the bus stop, cafes, restaurants and shops. It was very clean and spacious. The complimentary snacks and soft drinks as well as complimentary happy hour was a lovely addition. We arrived a little late and self-check in instructions were very easy. A complimentary bottle of wine in the room as we had missed happy hour was an unexpected surprise. Just wonderful.

The hotel was an easy walk to downtown Queenstown. It was clean, quiet and well maintained. The staff were very nice, very helpful and made sure we were well taken care of. They also had a daily happy hour that we enjoyed. We will stay there again!
