I cannot praise the staff enough, from reception, bar and restaurant to housekeeping, everyone was great, even let me check out late for no cost when our trip plans got changed at the last minute ##### Ian Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael Jan 1, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stayed for one night at the Distinction Te Anau. The room was clean, but a bit dated. Bathrooms looked recently upgraded/remodeled. The property is right on the lake and we had a nice lakeside view. Staff at the property were friendly and attentive. The hotel is a 5 minute walk from most of the restaurants although there are a few right next door. My stay offered free breakfast, and it was quite a nice breakfast spread. There was toast, pancakes, oatmeal, fruit, eggs (scrambled and boiled eggs), multiple juices, etc. and coffee. There were also decent little pastries. Their coffee was also pretty good. Usually hotel coffee for these types of things is pretty bad. If you are looking to go to Milford Sound a nice option is to stay in Te Anau for 1 or 2 nights and get the tour from here. The tour cost is substantially lower and you don't have to do the entire bus drive (5 hours ish from Queenstown) in one day which is a very long drive. Overall a good experience. ##### Michael Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon Apr 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The staff were very helpful, room was very clean and comfortable plus it was easy walking distance to shopping centre. ##### Sharon Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William Feb 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed here 4 nights and loved it.
