about the hotel

A lakeside welcome in the heart of Queenstown

For over a decade, PrimeWharf has been a home away from home for guests exploring New Zealand's premier alpine resort town.

PrimeWharf sits a short stroll from Queenstown's waterfront, framed by the lake on one side and the mountains on the other. What began as a boutique lakeside lodge has grown into a warm four-star casino hotel and resort — yet we have kept the personal attention that made guests return year after year.

Our team looks after every detail of your stay, from an early lakeside breakfast to a nightcap at The Remarkables Bar. Whether you are here for a mountain escape, a wedding, a corporate retreat or simply a quiet weekend, PrimeWharf is designed for you to slow down and enjoy.

As a lakeside casino hotel, PrimeWharf welcomes guests aged 20 and over into our on-site casino — from slots to table games, it is one of many ways to spend an evening with us.
