Disappointing

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The best part of my stay.

While the double villas had microwaves my single one did not nor would they give me one - doesn’t make sense to me. The room faced the bus parking lot - not the nicest. Especially when the buses started up in the morning. Also would be nice to have some sheer curtains under the blackouts for privacy and light.

Great place to stay for the night in Te Anau

Comfortable, warm and clean with lovely bathroom and generous sized lounge area. Laundry facilities available. Pretty garden with flowering shrubs. Villas were much better inside that the appearance on the outside.

TV had poor choice of channels.

Very Poor

The only thing to like about the hotel was the view .

It's a very old hotel that is stuck in the 90's. Doesn't have a lift, wifi is more or less non existent ("browsing speed only apparently".. seriously? This is 2023). Beds are quite uncomfortable, massive pillows which you can't use. You can also hear everything going on in your next room. At this price point, this is a definite skip.

Lovely hotel, opposite the lake, handy to town.

The location was great, being just a few minutes to walk into town. It is also opposite Lake Te Anau, which has a lovely walk along the lakefront. The hotel is spacious and our room was a good size with a lovely view of the lake. All the staff we met, were very friendly and helpful.

The bathroom is a bit on the small side but did have a bath. There was at least lots of space to put your toiletries. The bathroom door wouldn't close properly. On our third and last morning, we were very disappointed to find that we couldn't have a buffet breakfast because there weren't any tour groups in and it wasn't worth putting out a lot of food for the other guests. We had a choice from a set menu, so we didn't go hungry!

Close to town centre, room for the family.

The family villas are at the back of the property with no views of the lake and a bit dark.

Good location close to the centre of the small town and the tour companies.

Room was a little small, the sitting chairs were so close to one of the twin beds they are not worth having as unusable. Paid view of the lake was obstructed by various things, if you want a good view, probably better to ask for a first floor room, not ground floor.

2 Bedroom Villa

We were looking for a place in Te Anau to use as a base for a tour to Milford Sound and the Glow Worms. The main building looked nice and had a very nice fine dining restaurant attached. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The hotel has a great location with a easy walk to most restaurants. Only a 5 minute walk to the glow worm tour.

Our 2 bedroom villa was a little outdated. Smaller bedrooms and living area then most other 2 bedroom apartments in New Zealand that we stayed at. Dark walk from main building to our villa due to no security lights. We were traveling for 3 weeks and we were more disappointed with this property than any of the others.

We had a few problems with the accommodation (which is a bit tired), but the management and staff went out of their way to make us comfortable. Top notch service, which made up for the negatives.
