Quest Queenstown Apartments Remarkables Park

Hotel in Queenstown

Featuring 4-star accommodations, Quest Queenstown Apartments Remarkables Park is located in Queenstown, 1.9 miles from Queenstown Event Centre and 5.8 miles from Skyline Gondola and Luge. Totally the hospitality was incredible. Receptionists were really nice. Very close to ZQN airport - only 1 stop from airport by bus. It cost only $2.00 with BEE card. I didn't need to grab a taxi. Very easy access. The hotel was located next to Remarkable Shopping Mall. Walking distance from both airport and shopping mall for me. There were a variety of restaurants and cafes in the mall. Super market (New World) was nearby. To CBD of Queenstown, you can reach by #1 city bus. Takes 30 minutes bus ride. Very quiet to sleep at night.
