Clean and safe motel with friendly staff. Located on the main road on Fox Glacier township with easy parking on-site. Room was a little bit on the small side but still comfortable and well stocked.

Really lovely welcome and good room. I think the only bits which made it a 4 instead of a 5 star is that there was no hob (microwave only) and no smart TV with apps eg Netflix or YouTube. Other than that it was really good with lovely staff and housekeepers. Thank you Graham

Great Staff at a Nice Motel
Very nice motel close to Fox Glacier walk. Staff was excellent providing great hiking and dining suggestions as well as driving guides for highlights between Fox Glacier and Queenstown. Restaurant recommendation was spot on!

The staff was lovely, but, honestly, the cost of staying in what was essentially a very modest, basic hotel/motel was way out of proportion. Based on other accommodation we’ve stayed at in New Zealand, we paid 2x what we should have.
