Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    It was a rainy day in Queenstown. This outdoor mall has lovely shops to check out. For the restaurants, most have lunch that ends at 2:30 p.m., and they do not reopen until 5 p.m.

    We did the Original Onsen - 1 hour soak. It was a lovely and very relaxing experience from start to finish! The overall facility is new, clean, and very nice. Each pool is in its own spacious private room overlooking the mountains and river. Each room also has a shower. You get a complimentary drink (alcoholic or nonalcoholic) and snack also. I definitely recommend it and would go again!

    I stumbled upon this gallery while having a wander. The cute dogs in the window caught my eye, and while I like looking at art it has never been in my budget to purchase gallery work, however the "top rated tourist attraction" encouraged me inside. Not a big gallery but very aesthetically pleasing. Can be intimidating if it's not in your budget, however the lady working there was very friendly and engaging (not at all pretentious!) and had no problems me taking as many photos as I liked. Had never heard of Ivan Clarke but his 'Lonely Dog' works are so charming. I purchased a card to frame (very cute 'Catside Cocktails' with a little blurb on the back) for $5 (or you can get 6 for $25). Definitely worth a visit.

    Pleasant staff. The experience is more for teenagers than adults. I’m not easily scared, but my gf hates the dark so was terrified throughout.

    My husband and I adored our time doing through the Tim Wilson gallery and were mesmerised by his beautiful work. We're not usually huge art gurus but you can't help but be awed by these paintings. Rachel was such a lovely host and brought deeper meaning and significance to every piece by sharing the backstories and helping us to recognise and appreciate each detail and technique. It was also very special to be in Tim's very home as we soaked in his beautiful work. We would highly recommend this to anyone, it is not to be missed!

    Experiencing Queenstown is one thing but finding the jewel in the crown “Art Bay Gallery” is an added bonus. The vast array of talented NZ and International artists is fabulous. Virut is one of our favourites. Definitely a must see. Always manage to find time to pop in and see what is new and interesting. Pauline and her wonderful staff are so welcoming and knowledgeable.

    I stopped the area and noticed the spire of the church. There is a nice gateway which leads into the church. I didn't go in but did have a look outside. The stone building does look quite nice.
