About
About Balmoral Lodge Queenstown
A hillside lodge with sweeping Queenstown views.
Balmoral Lodge sits on York Street, elevated above Queenstown with uninterrupted views of Lake Wakatipu and the Remarkables mountain range. This luxury bed and breakfast combines the intimacy of a private home with the service touches of a boutique lodge. Suites are generously sized, some featuring spa baths and private balconies where mornings begin with crisp alpine air and broad panoramas of the lake below. Interiors mix comfort and elegance, with seating areas, plush bedding, and bathrooms designed for long soaks.
Guests gather in the lodge’s lounge, where complimentary wine, whisky, or port is served each evening. Breakfast is included, with a choice of continental spreads or cooked-to-order plates, often enjoyed with mountain views through large picture windows. A terrace and garden area extend the space outdoors, while ski storage and free private parking cater to winter travelers and road trippers alike. The property’s position on Queenstown Hill means the town center is within a 10–15 minute walk, though the uphill return offers a reminder of the altitude. For those seeking quiet luxury with an alpine edge, Balmoral Lodge balances seclusion with easy access to Queenstown’s restaurants, bars, and adventure activities.

The view from our room was priceless! To have coffee looking at the lake and downtown area was breathtaking. Could not have asked for a better place to end our month long trip of New Zealand. Cis and
