Perfect one night stay on our way south!

We had a rainforest outside our patio doors! Excellent location for Glaciers, plenty of choice in the Main Street for food, small supermarket. The lodge was very modern, warm, comfortable, plenty of space. Bed was sooo comfy!

Nothing to not like!!

Comfortable, clean and well equipped great motel

Comfortable quiet room, great location, helpful staff, well equipped kitchenette, excellent gas fire for heating. All made for a great stay.

Strange timing of the bathroom fan, as it only turned on a couple of minutes after turning the light on, but then continued for at least 10 or 15 mins after you’d turned the light off. A bit annoying in the middle of the night after using the toilet.

A good choice for us.

A ten minute stroll into town and easy access to the eateries and harbour area. Nice and quiet and easy exit from here out of town when heading to nearby Arrowtown and also the shotover jet experience.

Would highly recommend

A vet warm welcome, loved the fireplace and room was warm on arrival. The deck opening to the rainforest was so relaxing. So close to everything but still very quiet. Good facilities, spacious and clean. Would recommend and stay again.

Lost WiFi on second night, assume internet down but made forward planning difficult. That’s it though.

Great accomodations

Great hotel, Lilian was so amable and was very welcoming and hospitable upon arrival also about our wizard issues with closed roads. A lovely affordable place to stay with great atmosphere! Both rooms were quite large, everything nice and tidy, and more importantly, having the panel style heater on kept the room nice and toasty during the frosty nights we stayed. The biggest room it's really amazing where we stay for the second night after our road issues we could taken a Great rest in a beautiful room.

A restful location, close to nature.

Well managed with friendly staff. Our room information was left ready for us after a late arrival. The room was very spacious for a studio. It was nicely appointed and was spotlessly clean including a sanitised TV remote. The room was well equipped with everything we needed. Everything worked well and the bed was comfortable. We loved the outlook from the huge window straight onto native bush.

The toilet and shower were a bit dated but it all worked just fine.
