This was one of the highlights of our trip to New Zealand. We had a fantastic view of the glaciers on Mt. Sefton from our expansive window. The unit itself contained a 2 burner stove and this enabled us to cook our own meals. The unit was really clean, the staff friendly & helpful. Can only hope to return someday! A

Amazing view and access to trails. View of the Tasman glacier from the trail was stunning. Hooker valley trail also memorable. We enjoyed the planetarium show at the Hermitage since the sky was too cloudy for actual viewing.The documentary at the museum on Ed Hillary. was fascinating

Amazing views outside your window of the mountains and the ever changing weather to go with it. Facilities were new and clean. Room incredibly insulated; they have a heater but you don't need it even in late winter/ early spring. Though it's 4 degrees outside at night time, inside is toasty and comfortable. I'll definitely stay again.

Know before you stop at grocery
Great location and enjoyed having a hot tub in our room. Great views, spacious, clean and comfortable. Learning we couldn’t cook spicy food or seafood in our kitchenette AFTER we arrived was a bit disappointing, but they have a kitchen in the office we were able to use before they closed at 7. Would have liked a Do Not Disturb sign as we’d prefer to skip housekeeping for our short stay. There are none in use at the whole place. Fiona and Rex were attentive and kind.

Think before choosing
The motel is not clean. Although it had a spa shower room, the bath tub was dirty and we did not use it. We also felt itchy when sleeping on the bed whole night. The room has to be checked out at 10am and late check out more than 30 mins will be charged for NZ$50.

Response from manager on 5 Apr 2023
The room was very clean and this is reflected in the many positive reviews we have had on this. we do inspect each room prior to occupation every day and this is why we have high standards.i think if we get to the real problem, you did not wish to depart the room at the agreed time of 10am when leaving and had to be called on the phone at 10.15 to remind you of this obligation and the potential penalty if you did not leave after half an hour. Creating false statements is not an appropriate way to get attention on these forums.
