QT Hotels is introducing a new 5-star designer property in Queenstown, New Zealand, bringing boutique luxury to the lakeside resort town. The development comprises 69 designer suites by Nic Graham, with interiors styled by Anna Roberts. Costume elements by Janet Hine and an art collection curated by Amanda Love add distinctive personality to each space, creating a cohesive, art-forward guest experience.
The property already offers several dining and social highlights. Bazaar Interactive Marketplace is open and serves as the hotel’s signature food destination. It presents a variety of international options under one roof, including Asian grill stations, a cheese and charcuterie bar, wood-fired Italian pizzas, fresh seafood selections and a dessert counter with a range of pastries and confections. The marketplace is designed for flexible dining, ideal for families, groups and solo travelers looking to sample diverse flavors in a relaxed, vibrant setting.
Also operating on-site is Reds Bar, conceived as a contemporary living-room-style venue with an après-ski atmosphere. The space is furnished with mid-century-inspired Eames-era chairs and custom pieces, and features a resident DJ to set the mood. The cocktail menu highlights imaginative drinks crafted from an extensive assortment of spirits and liqueurs, and the bar’s elevated vantage points deliver striking views across Queenstown, Lake Wakatipu and the surrounding mountains, including the Remarkables. Together, these outlets emphasize both social energy and a sense of place, allowing guests to dine, drink and unwind while taking in the region’s scenery.
With its boutique suite design, curated art, and multiple culinary concepts, the new QT Hotels property aims to offer a refined yet playful stay that reflects Queenstown’s adventurous spirit and scenic beauty. Whether guests are seeking a lively meal, a crafted cocktail with a view, or a stylish base for exploring the outdoors, the hotel combines thoughtful design and local context to create a memorable arrival to one of New Zealand’s most iconic destinations.
