Disliked: Cleanliness
Overall okay, but they do reusable water bottle and fill their water- noth our bottles had visible debris(black and white) particles floating around. When asked front desk how they ‘sanitize’ the bottle as they claim, the front desk initially tried to dodge by saying it was bubbles, then when evidence was shown(video/photos) they said they use a dishwasher. But the shape of the bottle has very narrow neck so not sure how effective dishwasher is for bottle sanitizing. No apologies, they only offered to replace water with another one of their own so we declined. Otherwise perfect location, breakfast staff were very friendly and polite.

The Sofitel is right in the centre of Queenstown so all the bet shops and restaurants are walkable. We had a new room so super modern and clean as well as being a good size for two people. Staff were really helpful. The bed was great and we slept well.
