We were in the deluxe family room which was huge and spotless. It seemed like it was renovated recently. Very comfy and the air conditioning worked great.
Breakfast buffet had a good variety and the staff there were so helpful. They were accommodating and kind throughout the whole stay.
Location was central and felt safe. Would definitely recommend staying here.
The deluxe room is newly renovated! Better than what I expected!
The service and the breakfast was exceptional!

Disliked: Cleanliness
The people are good there, all of the staff are frendly and the breakfast was good. However the room itself is not good, the bed sheet was too old and looks like there were no quilt at all. The bed matress protector was used as quilt.
We loved the hotel. The location was great and plenty of parking spots. The room was clean and beds and pillows were comfortable. The windows overlooked the restaurant but it was not that loud. The breakfast was great many options to chose from. There was no coffee maker in the room.
As usual the staff and hotel were awesome especially as the power in Te Anau had been off for over 24hrsdue to the storms and just came back on as we arrived. They were fantastic under pressure. A+++ to all at the hotel.
The location was good; however, the room had outdated decor and an unpleasant odor. It was impossible to sleep throughout the night due to an annoying noise resembling a deep mechanical hum. Additionally, the bathroom did not have a shower curtain, which made it impossible to shower without water spilling outside the bathroom. Breakfast was alright.
In my opinion it is not worth the price to stay at this place.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was fine. Bed was comfortable. Housekeeping was lax. Front desk staff were courteous. And maybe it’s an American thing but why did I have to leave the hotel and go to their next door restaurant to get ice? Then you have to hassle with the restaurant staff to get some? Breakfasts were good but don’t even think about taking a cup of coffee back to your room unless you pay an additional $5. The common areas of the hotel were drab and so not fitting with the beautiful country. I’ll be back to Te Anau but I’ll work hard to find different accommodation.
Great location making it easy to walk around town. Good room size with lots of room for suitcases/bags. Parking was very easy and accessible and the restaurant provided an excellent breakfast buffet.
A very large comfortable and clean room. Excellent front desk service and a wonderful breakfast with friendly staff. Overall an excellent stay ion a great location.
