The room view is dependent on what you booked. We booked a mountain view room and it didnt disappoint with all the snow around. Great experience for a repeat customer.

We recently spent a few nights at the Aoraki Mount Cook Alpine Lodge and had a nice stay. Reservation for a basic twin room was made through booking.com. Pre-arrival communication, payment processing were all handled in expected manner. Check-in upon arrival was very quick. There is basic parking around the property which is just a couple minutes walk to the National Park Visitor Centre and one of the Park eateries called the Old Mountaineer's Cafe. Our room was a no-frills, two single bed with desk and simple bathroom. This is a good budget-friendly option for those planning on spending most of their time out hiking and enjoying the National Park, just needing a place to sleep and rest. There is a really nice common area with plenty of tables, sofas and A-frame floor to ceiling glass window with view of the Mt Cook mountains across the valley. This was a 'Wow' place to spend time relaxing at the lodge. They also have a fully equipped kitchen with fridge for food storage, three oven units and washing basins, plenty of cutlery and basic cookery for guest to self-prepare meals during stays. Note: There are no supermarkets in the National Park so stock up in Tekapo or Twizel before heading in the Mt Cook area. Overall, think functional and affordable over boutique and luxury when it comes to the Aoraki Mount Cook Alpine Lodge. It is a simple but good little place in the National Park. We'd gladly stay here again during future visits.

Great property in good location with friendly staff.
