Queenstown is renowned as New Zealand’s adventure capital, offering year-round activities from skiing on Coronet Peak and The Remarkables to lakefront biking trails and vineyard tours in the nearby Gibbston Valley.

A modern gym will round out the hotel’s amenities, ensuring guests can maintain their fitness routines while enjoying their stay.
Prime Location with Easy Access to Queenstown’s Attractions
Queenstown’s location at the foot of the Southern Alps makes it a prime destination for adventure and exploration, and Radisson RED’s new property is situated in a growing area that continues to enhance the local tourism infrastructure. The hotel will benefit from the development of an adjoining community park, which will further enrich the area by offering outdoor spaces for both locals and visitors. Coronet Peak’s ski lifts are just a 15-minute drive away, ensuring easy winter access, while the summer months will offer close proximity to hiking and biking trails.
For those arriving by air, Queenstown Airport is just 16 minutes away from the hotel, with direct flights from Australia’s east coast and frequent domestic services. This accessibility makes it convenient for both international and domestic visitors to enjoy Queenstown’s extensive offerings, from world-class skiing and adventure sports to its thriving dining and arts scene.
