If you are staying at The Glebe you are treating yourself. Or you are gathering 8 of your closest friends and are still treating yourself. The Glebe apartments and penthouse suites are flash. Two minutes from the centre of Queenstown, views of the lake, views of the mountains, flat screen plasma TV, fireplace, fully equipped kitchen and your choice of four different bedrooms.
The weekend we stayed my partner and I lucked into an apartment all to ourselves. It was huge. Four separate bedrooms, two bathrooms (one was an ensuite to the master bedroom), balcony (with door connecting to the master bedroom), two TV's (one located in the master bedroom), fireplace inside and outdoor fireplace. As you just read you can pretty much hole up in the master bed room and not come out. The bed is large (king size) and has the most comfy cushiony duvet.
The carpet and decor is tasteful with lots of whites. However the owners do have a thing about dogs and you'll find a few stuffed ones placed on beds around the apartments. (I found them a bit creepy and put them in an unused bedroom).
Now we didn't get to see the Penthouse, but from the online description I can guess they are fantastic. Besides everything you get standard with the apartments (DVD player, CD player, access to drying room, under cover parking) you also get under floor heating AND a spa pool on your balcony.
The four bedroom prices at $650 p/night. However split this 8 ways and you are looking at $81 per night. That's about $400 for a 5 nights stay. Not too bad for a ski holiday.
The penthouse is $1500/1700 a night. So that IS a bit pricey at around the $190p/night mark.
I would recommend The Glebe if you are headed to QT and want a bit of luxury on your ski holiday. They can also split the apartments you can rent just a room. You can check availability and book online. Also check for seasonal rates and specials.
