Bella Vista's Blog

Queenstown stands heads and shoulders above most visitors destination of choice when visiting New Zealand. It holds a special allure for most Kiwi’s as well.

Whether you are travelling for an extended summer break, a special weekend away, visiting or participating in one of the many annual sporting events such as the New Zealand Golf Open or the Air New Zealand Queenstown Marathon, or booking a winter ski holiday, Queenstown has undoubtedly become the New Zealand destination of choice.

Sitting serenely on the shores of the mighty Lake Wakatipu, what was once a small sheep farming settlement has grown from gold rush town to tourism mecca.

Quietly overlooked by the eponymous Remarkable mountain range, Queenstown continues to draw visitors from all over the world. It’s on most traveller's ‘bucket list’, so if you haven’t visited yet, what are you waiting for?

Bella Vista Accommodation Network is very proud to be able to offer a modern and incredibly well-appointed Queenstown accommodation choice. Featuring 24 motel units, Bella Vista Queenstown will deliver to your every need whatever the season and however long your stay. Take note that this destination requires more than a one night stay.

With the choice of studio’s, one bedroom and two bedroom units, Bella Vista Motel Queenstown has the options you are looking for just on the edge of town without having to pay the high cost you might find at some Queenstown hotels. Free WiFi and onsite free car-parking during your stay are a great bonus for hassle-free travel.

Only a short stroll from the Bella Vista itself you can be entertained time and again by many of attractions in the cosmopolitan town centre. Five downtown ‘Must Do’s; include;

·         Riding the gondola to Skyline to take in the view from Bob’s Peak.

·         Take a cruise on the lady of the lake the TSS Earnslaw steamship across to Walter Peak for lunch.

·         Still on the water, book in for a real thrill and experience the awesome Shotover Jet ride.

·         We recommend you ensure you take some time out and enjoy a drink, a bite to eat or maybe an ice-cream whilst enjoying the fabulous views at one of Queenstown’s celebrated eateries.

·         And last but certainly not least, who could forget to recommend the very famous Fergburger. A locals tip from your Bella Vista host will ensure you can miss the queue.

A little further from town, depending on the season, you can hit the mountain bike trails or the ski resorts. Picturesque Arrowtown is only a short 10 minute drive away and there is endless cellar door choices to be made within the nearby Gibbston Valley, famous for the Central Otago Pinot wine.

The attractions that are going to bring you to Queenstown really are endless and forgive us if we blow our own trumpet but the Bella Vista accommodation is pretty good too! And don’t just take our word for it. Some recent Trip Advisor ratings rank our Queenstown motel very, very highly.

Currently positioned at #10 of all Queenstown Hotels and therefore #1 of all Queenstown Motels, don’t mind us if we congratulate the Bella Vista Queenstown team and give them a well deserved pat on the back. With comments such as “Great Place, Great People, Great Location” and when ranked above certain big-name hotel chains, it’s no wonder Bella Vista Queenstown wants to engage in a little bit of self promotion!

Now is the time to tick this destination off your must-do list so get booking – the team at Bella Vista Queenstown look forward to hosting you!
