Q Bank really is the goods if you're looking for great location and amazing historical style. It's easy walking distance to most of the things you'd want (eg 60 seconds to the Wilderness Railway station). Inside are stylish artworks and a veritable library of books, a vinyl record collection (and the means to play them). The slow-combustion fire kept us very cosy while ice-storms were blowing outside (yes!). Queenstown is changing, and it was such a surprise and delight to get to know the town better than we have before. The well-known 'moonscape' is gradually but visibly re-greening, and driving into and out of town gave us views of the surprisingly angular mountains circling Queenstown that reminded one more of scenes around Canada's Lake Louise or the Icefields Parkway. Back on a practical note, there's easy, free parking in the back street, and we were able to park legally for most of the time right outside the bank. If Queenstown is on your itinerary, we can definitely recommend Q Bank, for it's stylish architecture, comfortable appointments and generous hosts.
