QT Queenstown sets December opening date
QT Hotels & Resorts has unveiled design elements of its upcoming QT Queenstown hotel. Combining luxury comfort with contemporary décor across 69 guestrooms, the lake view resort will welcome guests from 1 December 2017.
QT Queenstown follows the design sensibilities set out by QT’s existing properties, with its identity inspired by the surrounding environment along with a touch of unconventionality. The property encompasses a mixture of nostalgic alpine and après ski lifestyle aspects, as well as a central narrative running through the public spaces, designer suites and a reimagined hotel dining experience.
The design scheme of QT Queenstown incorporates work by designer Nic Graham, stylist Anna Roberts and costumer Janet Hine, with Graham having worked with QT since 2011 and its first property, QT Gold Coast, balancing vintage influences and contemporary style.
With the needs of the modern traveller in mind, QT Queenstown’s food and drink offerings include Bazaar Interactive Marketplace and Reds Cocktail Bar. Bazaar continues the aesthetic direction of the resort with exposed surfaces, a herringbone pattern on the floor and leather straps. Here the Chefs provide a theatrical and interactive dining experience inspired by Central Otago’s fresh produce, whilst Reds features custom QT furniture including Eames-era chairs and bold wall graphics.
