The stunning new five-star Sofitel Queenstown is located in the heart of New Zealand’s premier four season lake and alpine resort.

Queenstown nestles on the shores of Lake Wakatipu with a backdrop of rugged mountains against crystal clear skies, attracting visitors from around the world.

It’s apt then that Queenstown is home to New Zealand’s very first Sofitel, a luxury boutique hotel, designed to harmonise with its alpine environment, with an absolute downtown location.

Boutique in style, Sofitel Queenstown offers a genuine, warm and personalised service with 82 opulent and stylish deluxe rooms, suites, and penthouses, plus two levels of restaurants, bars and boutique retail.

Sofitel Queenstown blends the best of hospitality traditions with modern sophistication and the most discerning standards.

At the heart of Sofitel Queenstown are its rooms, furnished with a classic French twist in warm and welcoming shades.

Room, suite and penthouse highlights include the incomparable Sofitel ‘MyBed’, a whole new concept in rest with a guarantee of plush softness that takes comfort and a good night’s sleep to a whole new dimension.

European-style draped curtains and French doors open onto balconies with panoramic views. All rooms and suites have sophisticated sound systems, wide-screen plasma televisions in bedrooms, bathrooms and lounges, home theatre systems, the very latest computer connection technology, and an espresso machine.

Spacious bathrooms feature natural products by French company L’Occitane, and astonishingly deep double spa baths by UK designer Sir Norman Foster.

The fully equipped Fitness centre comes with stationery bikes, rowing machines, stair climber, free weights and resistance machine complemented by a stretching area with swiss balls.  Evian and towels are on hand.

Savour the very best of New Zealand’s seasonal, fresh and ‘clean’ regional cuisine and produce, skilfully combined with a delicate touch of French artistry, in our restaurant Vie - a contemporary French bistro.

Produce including export-quality seafood, organically produced meat, the freshest herbs and a wide range of imported and local cheeses has been sourced extensively from local growers and purveyors.
