Just looked at the prices for accommodation in Queenstown and they weren't kidding. Hoping to get 1 night stay 15th to 16th Apr but 4 star accommodation goes for over $300 a night (Sofitel, Novotel, Hilton, etc). I was aiming for a budget of around $250 AUD per night and so far have found Holiday Inn and Mercure to be reasonably priced. What is your experience with these properties and any property suggestions in Queenstown?
If you want to stay around that budget I'd recommend looking for an Airbnb if you don't mind that option. Should be able to find a pretty good house for a night
Lots of good Airbnb’s. Even though it’s easy to get around I suggest staying close to town unless you’re there for a particular reason for example Golf at Kelvin Heights stay at Kelvin Heights.
If I go specifically to snowboard I’ll stay at the Hilton for it’s location however just a general holiday I’ll stay in town at an Airbnb

Mercure is nothing special but location on the lake is stunning.
