Just 250 metres from Lake Wakatipu, Alexis Motel & Apartments features a large shared patio offering views of Lake Wakatipu and the Remarkables Mountains. All accommodation offers a kitchenette or kitchen. Guests enjoy free WiFi throughout the property.

A beautifully maintained motel with all new furnishings. Excellent cooking facilities and amenities. Kind staff, and in an easily accessible location, just out of the town centre. Even got a room upgrade to a bigger room upon checking in. Air conditioning in the room was much appreciated, considering a lot of accomodation in New Zealand doesn't have it.

Loved our stay at this lovely motel - everything was perfect, especially the view!!! The sunrises and sunsets were the highlight of the stay! The staff - Jass and Abhi - were wonderful, hard-working and kind people. The place is spotless, and has everything you need. Also, a walking distance to the town, and the bus stop is right by the property - easy to arrange pick-ups for the tours and we also took a bus to Arrowtown, so easy! Highly recommended!!!

Looking for a motel?

Both travelers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help make check-in quick and easy.

    centrally located within Queenstown clean and tidy room practical kitchen with good supply of utensils, microwave, fridge etc. spacious bathroom with ample supply of cleaning products What really makes the difference is a table with two sitting chairs (so many motels have one chair which is strange as in many cases2 people stay)

    Great location (10/15 minute walk from the centre), the apartment was much more spacious than expected which was great, we were able to properly settle and relax (a nice contrast to motels !). Kitchen was well stocked. Great being able to do washing and get it dried.

    Wonderful room! I did a 2 week road trip with Queenstown being one of the few places where I stayed more than one night. The room felt like its own little apartment which was exactly what I needed after long days on the road and nightly motel switching. Very clean and comfortable. Kind and responsive hosts. Delightful neighbourhood. Very, very cute cat!

    I didn’t stay here myself (my son and his family did) but I saw the apartment. Great location, easy walk to town, lake views, full facilities with bath, shower laundry and fully equipped kitchen. Warm. Free parking on site for every apartment (although don’s rental vehicle was too tall but they were able to park at next door motel.) Rooms a good size.

    Lovely free upgrade to a modern unit with a nice view. It was very clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing, self catered stay. Free parking was a bonus as it can be difficult to find a park in town when it is busy. The motel is within easy walking distance to town, the Earnslaw and the gondola. It was handy having access to a guest laundry. Communication was always prompt and friendly.
