Spectacular Views”

We loved our stay at the Earnslaw. It was quite and clean, perhaps a little older, but every effort was made to make the rooms presentable and comfortable. The Husband and Wife team were friendly and very accommodating. Our view was spectacular and we enjoyed a wine and a simple dinner in the armchairs provided, in front of the ranchslider, watching the sun go down.

Spectacular lakeside views in good-value Queenstown hotel.”

The Earnslaw Lodge picked a prime piece of real estate for its location when it was built in the 1970’s. It’s a pleasant 15-minute walk into Queenstown through its . amazing lakeside park. You will see dozens of newer, and more expensive lodgings in Queenstown- but few can match the Earnslaw Lodge’s lake- view rooms for jaw-dropping views. Not all of the rooms have the spectacular views of Lake Wakatipu- but the ones that do are the ones to reserve. You may not see a lot of Queenstown because you might not leave your room!

Overview”

A quiet spot, a little dated but clean and tidy. Basic, yes, but very comfortable. You can not beat the view. We spent a single night at this place on 2 separate occasions and enjoyed some simple food and a wine, sitting in behind the ranchslider (bit chilly), enjoying the absolute beauty of the lake. The owners were very friendly and accommodating - hence the return trip. Thanks for the hospitality.

Excellent view. We had lake facing room. More than anything else, the lady at the counter saved us from what could have been a dangerous travel with our 4yrs old. We were all set to leave for Franz Josef glacier and loaded our bags, the lady at the counter warned us about the landslide and highway closure with really bad weather conditions which we were completely unaware of. She helped us to call the road authorities and then we changed our plans and went to Queenstown instead. Thanks so much!!
