This is a really well-situated hotel with great views of Lake Tekapo and easy access to all shopping and dining options in the area. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I had read some previous reviews regarding the noise in the rooms and those are true. You can hear a lot of what’s going on in adjacent rooms and in the rooms above you. However, it’s a worthy sacrifice given the proximity to the lake and the overall quality of the hotel. Would definitely stay here again.
