Azur Luxury Lodge

My husband and I stayed here for three nights at the end of our time in Queenstown and it was incredible. The room and bathroom is so comfortable and luxurious. The view is stunning! There’s a lot of privacy and the staff is all super friendly, helpful, and polite. Every day we enjoyed breakfast in our room (included), tea/coffee with cake in the afternoon at the main building, and also wine and canopies at 5pm. We played checkers and got rides into town to go to the gym (included) and go out to dinner!! Despite not having a full blown kitchen/restaurant on the property, the food was amazingly delicious!! Pro tip - if you like to walk/run, leave the property and turn right and you’ll find (without having to go downhill too much) the top of a trail that you can take down into town.

Azur Luxury Lodge offers an unparalleled lakeside retreat in Queenstown, New Zealand. Guests are immersed in stunning alpine vistas, indulged with gourmet cuisine and impeccable service, and treated to the ultimate in sophisticated, sustainable luxury accommodation.

Wonderful hotel. Has all the little extras others don’t think of. How many times have you stayed in a hotel and realised quickly that the room doesn’t work or there is no where comfortable to sit and relax. It’s the little extras that count and make you feel special like they care. To name a few they had hair straighteners, cheese board and sharp knife, no extra charge for items in the fridge, a dedicated luggage area big enough for 2 people, heated floors, afternoon tea and pre dinner drinks and of course a drop off service into town whenever you want rather than specific times. The only thing I was missing was a full length mirror unless I missed it. View is amazing and breakfast delivered to the room was lovely. Would definitely stay again

I loved everything about this property excellent service from every person I dealt with, spacious cozy rooms, wonderful views, in a quiet area of Queenstown, they have a complimentary transfer service to and from the town so no need to worry about transportation or parking. Highly recommend.

We had the loveliest dinner at Azur, on the patio outside. Really spectacular local seafood - particularly the tuna carpaccio and swordfish. The oysters were also very fresh and creamy. Our waiter took exceptional care of us. Highly recommend dinner at Azur.

Not what we expected. We didn’t think this was 5 star at all. PROS—if you like lodging close to a city, Azur is very close to the hustle and bustle of nice restaurants and shops in Queenstown. Views from rooms are ok. CONS—rooms are NOT luxurious, carpet is cheap and very low quality, TV is oddly placed and low quality, beds are 2 singles joined together so you can feel the ridge in the middle, and my husband’s side was lower than my side. Very uncomfortable for couples!!! Bathroom area was nice though. Huge flies were flying around in our room when we checked in. The rooms are located downhill and you have to walk up and down very steep hills to get to your room. My husband and I are very fit and we could do the walk but this is not a friendly walk for older folks or disabled folks. They have golf carts that can drive you up and down but it’s still a very steep hill. The food is just average. The breakfast served in the room was not complete—an item was missing from our order, the plate was sweaty because it came covered because it was transported from the lodge all the way down the hill. My coffee came in a sippy cup so that it didn’t spill. Sippy cup in a 5 star hotel??? Nahhhh!! There’s no dinner option in the hotel. You have to head to town to eat or order Uber eats . The missing dinner option actually in my opinion makes this hotel/lodging a 3 or 4 star at the most. I’m not sure where the 5 star reviews come from, but my husband and I did not like this hotel. Sorry to burst your bubble but we have traveled extensively and stayed in many luxurious 5 star hotels all over the world and Azur lodge is a 3 star….maybe we’ll give it 4 star because of the nice bathroom and the proximity to town. There were even cobwebs in the table lamp!! We had just stayed 2 nights in Blanket Bay resort in Glenorchy and that was EXCEPTIONAL!!!—-a 10 star hotel!!!! If you’re looking for true luxury, go to Blanket Bay…I’d give Azur a miss!!!
