Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
St James Apartments enjoys a fantastic location, just a short walk to Queenstown's centre, making it easy to reach restaurants, shops, and even the waterfront. Guests appreciate the spacious apartments, often featuring full kitchens with ovens, ceramic hobs, and full-size fridges, and some also offer balconies with views towards the cable car and mountains. A few guests have noted the parking spaces can be a bit narrow, but the convenience of having free undercover parking is a definite plus.

Adequate location. Needs improvement

slow check in old furniture
the laundry room was great.
The check in process was slow, it took about 20 mins. the furniture felt quite old. The couch and coffee table seemed more suited for a student apartment. i did not find enough dishwasher powder was provided for a 3 night stay.

Really good stay!

central location full kitchen
The location is central. It allows easy access to main attractions. The room was spacious and included arm chairs with a coffee table. I found a compact but full kitchen that featured a four burner stove, full size fridge, an oven and a dishwasher. The daily room spruce kept everything tidy.
The parking spaces were narrow. This made maneuvering a bit difficult. Different parking spot were needed. Each time because of the lack of assigned spaces. More spacious parking would improve convenience.

overall a fine stay

outdoor balcony lake view limited parking height restriction
The 2 bedroom apartment was perfect for five adults. the location was great , as everything is in walking distance ,we had enough room to all spread out. the two outdoor balconies were great . One had a lovely view down to the lake , and the second bigger balcony was perfect for a few extra people. it was very serene and private overlooking a little brook , as you watched the world go by.
the limited number of parking spaces was an issue , and the height is limited to about 180cm. checking time is only from 3 pm to 5:30 pm, just a 2.5h timeslot , which is not really friendly. even though i paid the accommodation in advance , if you check in after 5:30 pm, you have to provide your credit card number and expiry date via phone call to get the instruction on how to get the key. otherwise , you will not get the key to your room.
