"The hotel is located on the edge of FRANZE GLACIER. It is very convenient to go to the trail the next day to see the glacier. It is very convenient, motel, suite, with kitchen, it feels great!"
"In the small town of Franz Josef, the price is very good.
New Zealand hotel prices are generally higher after the epidemic, but this one is really cheap in the town.
It was assigned to the rainforest room, and there was forest outside the window."
"Perfect location for accessing the glaciers and surrounding area. Immaculate lodges with everything that might be needed, I wish we had longer to stay there. Can’t fault a thing!"
"Everything is good except for the shower. It doesn't work at all. The water flows like a foam. I can't wash my hair. Other than that, it's good. There's a kitchen as well. Close to the helicopter that will take you up. Very good."
"The hotel owners are really warm and helpful. The room is immaculate and clean. It is located near to the major attrations, shops and buses. Thanks for the great hospitality, we really enjoyed our stay and the walk/view from the glacier. - Family of 3 from Singapore who stayed on 16 Dec 24 :)"
"The hotel is located a few minutes walk from the bus station. The rooms are well-equipped and clean. Although the hotel is called a motel, it is actually very comfortable and convenient for non-self-driving travelers. The hotel owner is very friendly and sincere, and is a reasonable young man. We had no choice of bus because there was only one bus arriving in the morning, and it was raining. We urgently needed to check in early. The hotel occupancy rate was full, and we understood that it was difficult for the hotel, but the hotel still arranged to clean a room for us in advance. The two waitresses were also very kind, friendly and enthusiastic, and easy to communicate with. In short, choosing this hotel makes you feel at home. I recommend this hotel."

"A good choice as a stop after a day's drive up north along the west coast highway and after a walk around Lake Matheson at the dusk. The motel is easy to locate. Kitchen is well-layout and it will be super if there is an electric stove and pots. The bathroom will be more use-friendly if some hooks are installed on the wall for towels and clothings."
"Standard motel, one king bed + one small bed, one family of three, with simple kitchen equipment. There is a heater in the living room, and the small clothes that can be washed can be dried very quickly. The back of the hotel is very open and there is a pony."
"A beautiful area just outside of Franz Josef. It's nearby the road, so you may get some traffic noise. Other than that, it was a quiet and restful night there. We could see the milky way at night!
We had a studio, so no kitchen but a microwave was available. There's a laundry as well. Wifi was good.
The manager was very friendly and allowed us to fill out campervan with water."
