兩個問題 一個是衞生 另一個是環境 環境 我當晚幾乎無法入睡 給三分 大雨打在木屋上面 響聲非常大 還有坐便蓋 我進門打開時候發現有尿液幹痕印記 給一分

浴室很小,洗臉槽更小,感覺不太方便使用。房間/客廳空間不錯,晚上隔音還不錯。 離franz Josef 小鎮開車約五分鐘,無法走過去不過算方便! 前台可以中文,介紹景點超親切,還有送一瓶鮮奶🐮!

We arrived late after the office was closed, but there was a note for us on the door with a detailed map of how to find our room and where to park. Checking ourselves in was easy. Room was spacious and comfortable. The area was nice and quiet. As we had to leave early, we never actually met any of the hotel staff.

Gorgeous view of the Franz Josef glacier from our chalet. Large and spacious, it was an accommodation we will never forget staying at. Conveniently located just outside of town, we were able to get what we needed, visit where we wanted, and finish the day with a beautiful stay.

The property seams clean, close to the main highway, not too far from the main town center. Breakfast options are terrible, its best to go into town and grab a bite. The folks running/managing the place could improve their communication skills/style.

Very clean, modern cabin with plenty of space. I rented a 2 room cabin. Check in nice and easy, cabin was cosy and relaxing. Shower divine, good pressure and hot as you like. Kitchen was well supplied, with microwave, fridge, ironing board. All curtains blocked a lot of the light. Very peaceful. I would stay here again

It was hard to find a person who would monitor the front desk. Other than that, it was a very nice stay.

Brilliant location and views, amazing cabins and quiet. We decided to stay here for 2 nights after the rain had settled in and slow our trip down. The location is approximately 5 kilometres out of Franz Josef itself but the benefit is the peace and quiet and large cabins. The cabins had a well kitted out full kitchen, large lounge and dining room and good sized bathroom. There were 2 heaters in the room which kept us toastie warm all night. There were DVDs in the reception for you to use free of charge and the gentleman at the reception was friendly and gave us some fresh milk to enjoy a cuppa with upon arrival. We will definitely be going back and staying on our next trip to NZ.
