Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Poor amenities, very bad compared to other properties in Te Anau. Avoid them. Very old and dated rooms, no parking available. Lots of tour companies do block bookings here. No ventilation in rooms. Bathroom much smaller than it appears in photos.
Furniture in the room was very badly positioned.
TV was placed in front of only mirror in room. To add to that the TV was put on the cabinet that housed the fridge and crockery . The kettle was put in this crowded space which made it dangerous to make a cup of tea with water from the kettle.
The bathroom was so small that you could hardly move around
The service from the staff was excellent, very friendly and efficient. Just a slight issue with the room cleaning, carpet not vacuumed and toilet wasn't cleaned with bleach,otherwise the hotel was superb.!!!!.

The hotel does not have good lake view rooms, although the website advertises them. The lake view on the website is not from the hotel site, so the image is misleading.
Clean , warm and spacious .. our room
Had view of car park but the restaurant had a big picture window of the lake . Bit older than some other places , but reasonable value and suited our needs and staff were accommodating when we arrived nearly as breakfast finished

Comfortable Beds but property is old and tired. Wallpaper on walls was bubbling in places, no Netflix etc and generally the place is dated. Staff were not overly helpful and generally seemed disinterested. Ok for the money but don’t expect much.
Loved the setting overlooking lake. Enjoy the on-site meals

Average hotel
Hotel is older but they are making efforts to update. Beds were really comfortable. Look for the fridge and kettle in main room console! Took me a while to find them! 😂 Breakfast buffet- hot food items were not great but other items available to sustain you.
