The Champagne Parlour Returns To QT Queenstown For A Second Pour

QT Hotels & Resorts

QT Queenstown are bringing back The Champagne Parlour in time for the snow season. Set for sparkling dreams and rosé themes, The Champagne Parlour has been designed in collaboration with New Zealand's leading creative, Evie Kemp, and in partnership with G.H. Mumm. The true definition of a pop-up, here for two months only, guests can check in to their own chic Champagne chalet room at the design-led hotel.  

A sold-out experience last year, QT Queenstown and G.H. Mumm invite fizz aficionados to check into Champagne luxury, this time with a nod to the winter wonderland taking place outside its doors. Rosy hues and cosy textures, every corner is adorned with the playful elegance of Evie's imagination and set to the picturesque snowy landscape of New Zealand's majestic Southern Alps. 

Evie Kemp, renowned for sprinkling creative dust on everything she touches, is meshing her bright, bold style with QT's quirk. Evie was given an open brief to bring her own style to The Champagne Parlour, speaking on her experience, “I've long admired the QT brand for its focus on design and the way it's unapologetically itself. I've had a riot of a time collaborating on this next iteration of The Champagne Parlour and I can't wait for guests to stay and indulge!”.

The Champagne Parlour is taking up temporary residence in a guestroom, from 24 June until 17 August 2024. Guests who seize the keys to this room à la Mumm will be greeted by furnishings matched to the hues of its muse, Mumm Grand Cordon Rosé. The Champagne Parlour's amenities include; a bottle of Mumm Grand Cordon Rosé on arrival, themed welcome and bath treats, Champagne breakfast in bed for two, and a Mumm Champagne mini bar; all set to the breathtaking lake views and majestic Remarkables through rosé-tinted glass.

QT Queenstown's much-loved Director of Champagne will also be returning in style, popping up to pop bottles in Reds Bar on level 6.

Jeremy Black, General Manager of QT Queenstown, says, “After the Parlour sold-out last year, we couldn't wait to bring it back to life, and this time with a Queenstown winter twist. We're thrilled to partner with G.H. Mumm to once again bring to life this fun and unforgettable experience for guests. Unsurprisingly, Evie has done an outstanding job curating the space to ensure guests get the ultimate experience with this unmissable escape.”    

 

Designer details sparkle in The Champagne Parlour   

The Champagne Parlour is a design-lover's dream. Evie's unique vision can be seen through furnishings including; retro wall art hung atop pink striped walls, a giant plush shag rug, bubble side tables and sofa adorned with fluffy sheepskins, a hand-embroidered cushion reading “I won't apologise for my Champagne taste”, and a red Champagne bottle neon light. The bathroom is decked out with Sage & Claire bathware along with plush peach robes. Known for her creative illustrations, Evie has also created bespoke artworks for everything from the entry door decal to the bathroom mirror, coasters and menus in Reds Bar. Beyond the design-led décor, all stays include playful QT touchpoints; a dramatic doorway for a grand entrance and a 'Call for Champagne' button on the room's phone. For laid-back leisurely afternoons, there is also a selection of page-turners curated for the Parlour courtesy of Wanaka's Bookety Book Books.

 

Champagne Tasting at Reds Bar 

Champagne moments will be extended to Reds Bar, the ultimate apres-ski spot this winter. Hit level 6 and get cosy as G.H. Mumm takes reign of the bar with the best views out over snow-capped mountains. Reds will be offering a G.H. Mumm tasting experience in full flight, guiding guests to sip their way through 50ml pours of Mumm Marlborough Brut Prestige, Mumm Central Otago Blanc de Noirs, Mumm Cordon Rouge Brut, and Mumm Grand Cordon Rosé. Tasting flights are $55 per person.

Weekend revellers can make the most of Fridays and Saturdays, as Reds are up sizing the first bottle of Mumm Brut purchased to a magnum, along with $2 oysters. Whether a glass or a bottle tickles your fancy, there will be special pricing on Champagne everyday throughout the campaign period.

The Champagne Parlour is $699 per night and bookable now, for stays from 24 June to 17 August 2024.
