The room and bathroom were spacious, clean and modern. I loved the lighting in the bathroom as well as the rain shower. Even though I didn't book a 'lake view' room, I still had a nice little view of the snowy mountains and lake with a little balcony. The heating was fabulous! Floor heating, a heatpump and a wall heater if you need it. Since I just booked a standard hotel room, I was pleasantly suprised to have a microwave, Nespresso machine, dishes and a decent fridge. The location was great for public transport as bus stops were very close to the top of the driveway. The complimentary shuttle to and from Queenstown city was fantastic! Make sure you call in advance to book your seat on a shuttle as they can fill up. One thing that was a bit of a downer is that you can hear noise through the interconnecting door. My room had a door that connected to a larger room next door.. I could hear their TV loudly until about 1am as well as clear conversations. I needed to put on some earbuds to be able to sleep. I can't imagine that all rooms are like this though. I would have spoken to the front desk however it was only bothering me for one night as people were very quiet the following night. Prior to booking, I luckily went directly onto the Oaks website and read that their restaurant/bar/gym were all closed due to the current construction and the reception is in a temporary location. I am sure everything will be even more wonderful once the construction is complete!

Clean, modern bathroom. Just as the website advertised.

Lots of construction going on, but this only was a hassle for parking and access if you have a large vehicle, absolutely no construction noise in rooms at all. Once in, the room was amazing. Warm, amazing location and views to die for. right on the lake and access to walking track

The Oaks Shores are currently part way through a major renovation. The renovated rooms are of a high standard. The 2 bedroom lake view apartment was perfect for our stay of 4 friends. Very spacious and well equipped with incredible views. The carpark and temporary reception area is not ideal but we note this is only temporary while to rest of the renovation is completed. We will definately be back!

Booked the property through Wotif. Upon arrival, we found the property to be under construction. No restaurant, no parking and no spa. At the time of booking, this was not reflected on the Wotif website. Upon arrival, we were informed by the manager of Oaks that they are not responsible for “4th and 5th party booking agents”. The room itself is was lovely, no complaints. However, the room service was poor. If one or two items of clothes were left on a bed, we came back to the room to find a not saying that staff could not make the bed.

The suites were immaculate and quiet, along a beautiful walking trail by the lake. While some of the facilities are under renovation, they were transparent about this when I reserved a suite. Despite renovations, it was very quiet and clean. The only concern was a sewer smell in and around the property in the evenings.
